During week two of project one, Statistical Analysis with ArcGIS, I ran an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression model using known meth lab locations as a dependent variable, and twenty-nine various social statistics as independent variables. Using the OLS model and a set of criteria I was able to pare the list down to nine independent variables,(shown in the table above) that are the best indicators of future meth lab locations. The results of my final model are displayed in the map of standard residuals (also shown above). This model was created to give law enforcement the ability to target areas with a high propensity for meth labs in the future.
