Crime Categories
Truora has adopted the categories developed by the United Nations for the International Classification Of Crime For Statistical Purposes (ICCS) to standardize the description of crimes across all countries. Criminal procedures and sanctions differ widely internationally, which can make understanding records complicated. The ICCS categories focus on the underlying action or outcome of a crime so that you have the context you need to make a decision.
These categories will help you identify crimes returned by our Variables API by their category_id.
