Crime Scene Template
Crime Scene Template
designed by R.W Rivers
Now you can cover the entire crime scene with an 8 inch plastic square!
This template enables the investigator or crime scene technician to draw an infinite array of structures and objects to scale using scaled cut-outs and straightedges. In addition, objects can be drawn in their proper location on a diagram by the convenient polar coordinate system (use of a distance and direction from a reference point).
With its assortment of objects commonly associated with a crime scene, the template is ideal for making a rough sketch at the scene. Later, you can use the template to render a highly accurate scale diagram. Non-scaled cut-outs are included for those items that would otherwise be too small to be recognized.
The template:
- Is made of flexible, yet extremely durable blue plastic
- Measures 8 inches by 8 inches
- Fits into a pair of rings on any standard size 3-ring binder
