RiverGlass has responded to this critical national security issue by applying its sophisticated machine learning techniques for analyzing disparate data to the information overload problems facing intel analysts today. RiverGlass and the Statewide Terrorism Intelligence Center (STIC) of the Illinois State Police have jointly developed a suite of tools tailored to the specific needs of analysts working in a fusion center environment. Along with unique visualizations and analytics, this collaboration has produced an ontology of more than 85,000 terms – to both enhance and simplify analytical results – with built-in expert knowledge of STIC analysts. This RiverGlass public safety ontology contains data definitions of the entities important to a fully-compliant extension of the Global Justice XML standard.
The end result is an analytics solution specifically geared toward fusion centers and other government intelligence agencies, enabling them to gain and maintain a complete intelligence picture, 24/7.
RiverGlass Enables Government & Intelligence to:
Find relevant entities contained within the data. By mapping query results into distinct categories, RiverGlass organizes and presents information according to these real-world concepts. Analysts view data in terms of the subjects of an investigation – people, methods, places, targets and more – and can also quickly find and access documents that show relationships across different subjects.
Automatically seek out and monitor websites that relate to criminal investigations or other intel needs. Information posted to the Internet from diverse sources like CNN, MSNBC, Southern Poverty Law Center, the Anti-Defamation League, and Department of Justice, as well as sites that post threatening or criminal content is critical to effective data analysis. The Web, however, is expanding at an exponential rate and analysts are faced with extreme information overload. RiverGlass tools allow analysts to activate searches that intelligently and continuously scan the web for information relevant to them and their organization. Because of its access to the context of an organization through a customized ontology, RiverGlass tools can more quickly discover where relevant content exists
