Abstract
- Several EU policy papers on security research have called for improved dialogue between security policymakers, social science researchers and science and technology researchers working in the area of security. In this paper, geospatial concepts and geospatial technology are introduced into this dialogue in order to improve the efficacy of communication. The explanatory power of these concepts has already been described theoretically. Their quantitative application using GIS and spatial statistical techniques poses challenges. Several technical issues still have to be addressed through a three-way dialogue in order to assist in monitoring European security policy. Generally, increases in the scientific knowledge base and in technology, are seen as enhancing state capabilities and political coordination
