Seeing the picture

One shared map

We build software that brings many public information sources onto one shared map, so the team working an incident sees the same picture.
Official alerts and natural hazards

It shows official public emergency alerts and natural hazards, such as earthquakes and wildfires, as they are published. When an official warning area covers a place the operation has set, the software puts that warning in the closest ring.
Public safety data

It places public safety information that publishers already release openly on the same map, at the precision the publisher gives.
Watch areas

Mark an area once, and the software raises an alert in the workspace when a new item from the sources is located inside it.
Distance rings

It groups what comes in into rings by distance from the places an operation has set, and any ring can be hidden, so the screen does not overload.
Density view

A density view shows where public events cluster at a glance.
One search box

One search box finds anything currently on the map.

A source on every item

Every item on the map names where it came from and how reliable that source is, so a person can check it before acting on it.
Case records that need sources

An event cannot be added to a case record without the source it rests on.
Who added what

Each entry in a case record records who added it, and each file records who uploaded it. Every file is fingerprinted when it arrives, so a later change to the file can be detected.
Packages you can check later

Analysts can gather related items into one piece of work and export the whole thing as a package whose files can be checked later.

Briefings on request

On request, AI drafts a written briefing on what is on the map for an area or a piece of work, for a person to check.
Draft reports

It turns a piece of work into a written report drafted by AI for a person to check. The publisher is credited where one gives a credit line, and a fingerprint lets later changes to the file be detected.
People stay people

The software does not decide who a person is, and its AI is set up to refuse to write an assessment of an individual.

Roles

People see only what their role allows. Removing an account ends that person's access.
Built-in training

Short built-in lessons cover checking sources, respecting data terms and avoiding common analysis mistakes.

In development

Three items at an earlier stage than the list above. They are some of the work now in development.

Shift handover notes

We are developing handover notes that help the next person on shift pick up open work.
Licence checks on every source

We are building it so that every source is checked against the terms it was published under, and sources whose terms do not allow the use are held back.
Team messaging

We are building team messaging inside the same workspace, designed so the server stores only scrambled text.
