Paper maps are fine as far as they go. We used the map to show the 
location of ongoing incidents and the location of fire, ems, and law 
enforcement resources. You could get more information by clicking on the 
icon. Multiple layers allowed turning on various classes of landmarks, 
showing jurisdictional boundaries, and so forth. Entering a street address 
would zoom to the location. You're not going to do that with paper or PHP 
serving up static pages.

Another use for crime analysis. What crimes occurred in a given time 
period? What were the patterns for specific crimes? How about a heat map 
or other graphic representation?
