When people go missing in London because of mental health or family problems, the Metropolitan Police use examples of previous cases to help find and return them to safety. But even expert tracers can’t be familiar with all the thousands of cases in their database. Your task is to use (an anonymised version of) their database to help visualise and guide search efforts, based on the characteristics of similar cases in the past. Note that this team will need to interact with data that is sensitive and may be distressing.

When people go missing in London because of mental health or family problems, the Metropolitan Police use examples of previous cases to help find and return them to safety. But even expert tracers can’t be familiar with all the thousands of cases in their database. Your task is to use (an anonymised version of) their database to help visualise and guide search efforts, based on the characteristics of similar cases in the past. Note that this team will need to interact with data that is sensitive and may be distressing.
