A leading federal intelligence agency realized that it needed a better way to sort through the mountains of data they were processing to uncover threats against the nation. We helped them select and deploy a tool that speeds the retrieval of time-sensitive information.
By enabling agency analysts to read the summary of a document, and then decide whether they want to read more or move on, the topic map helps analysts review more information at a faster rate, deliver better intelligence and help other defense agencies respond to emerging threats.
Defense agencies need to sort through information coming from a wide range of sources – memoranda, reports and even the Internet. While a wealth of information lies within these documents, finding the right piece of data is critical.
Traditional search engines attempt to sort through information and rank it in order of relevancy. But defense agencies require more than a simple ranking of data. They also need to know how information is related and to be able to uncover relationships that they may not have realized existed.
By incorporating semantic web technologies such as topic maps and RDF into their systems, defense agencies can finally gain control and fully exploit the mountain of information they possess. Innodata Isogen has extensive experience with Topic Maps and RDF and in implementing semantic web technologies within Defense agencies.
