The PROBLEM
80% of information is unstructured. Imagine it as an iceberg!
Using only basic tools, you can see only small part of it.
If you can see the whole, you can become frustrated by inability to see what is inside.

1st objective is to FIND
What information is available ?
Make it searchable by the most advanced technology designed for analysts.
Reduce time for searching information!

2nd objective is to UNDERSTAND
What knowledge can be extracted?
Use tools for content & context analyses applicable in multiple languages.
Reduce time for analyses!

3rd objective is to UTILISE
What knowledge can be easily shared?
Use knowledge mapping tools applicable for information profiling.
Reduce time for dissemination.

Typical use cases
To create the picture of a case1. To use different search features to find relevant
information from different sources.2. To use content analysis to identify relevant facts
(entities) and characteristics (attributes).3. To use context analysis to identify relevant
relationships (links). 4. To use connection to Analyst‘s Notebook to create or
enrich the picture.
To monitor information about the case1. To create a profile for filtering the information and for
highlighting relevant context. 2. To do periodic (batch) search or real-time profiling for
personalized dissemination of new information.
