What's Different?
Vulnerability/Threat Assessment
Where are we vulnerable, what are the threats?
Risk Assessment
What is the total risk at any location
Geopolitical Context
What is the undercurrent at this location?
Public Reporting Verification
Can I see it with my own eyes?
Vulnerability/Threat Assessment
Where is the vulnerability? What are the threats?
| Focus on specific venues/locations, calling out existing vulnerabilities | |
| Report Details | |
| Analysis | Provide overview of not only vulnerabilities to a facility but also support infrastructure in surrounding area Key Object identification – Structures, roads, moveable and fixed assets, physical and manmade related to vulnerability/threat |
| Vulnerabilities will be assessed based on specified requirements – man-made vulnerabilities. Weak points in and around facilities (ex, perimeter fencing, barriers and interface). | |
| Input types | Satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, field observation, road network, national mapping agencies, secondary research, customer supplied |
| Discovery Report | Image overview with existing vulnerabilities identified, max 2kmx2km Identification of Key Object relevant toward project completion/goals Infrastructure – Roads, Transportation, Water, Power Area: up to 5 square kilometers |
| Analysis Report | Surrounding area support (transportation hubs, hospitals, police/fire locations), max 5kmx5km. Identification of Key Objects related to vulnerability and threats Key Site Observations leveraging additional Open Source content Area: up to 10 square kilometers |
Risk Assessment
What is the total risk at any location?
| Focus on specific venues/locations, calling out potential vulnerabilities | |
| Report Details | |
| Analysis | Provide overview of overall Risk – the product of vulnerabilities and Threats for a specific location Key Object identification Structures, roads, moveable and fixed assets, physical and manmade related to Risk |
| Vulnerabilities will be assessed based on specified requirements – risks of natural and or man-made nature will be addressed. Potential for the impacts of future, attacks, bombings, political unrest, flooding, fires earthquakes or other naturally occurring events is identified. | |
| Input types | Satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, field observation, road network, national mapping agencies, secondary research, customer supplied |
| Discovery Report | Image overview with potential risks identified. Identification of Key Object relevant to over all risk: Infrastructure – Roads, Transportation, Water, Power Area: up to 5 square kilometers |
| Analysis Report | Surrounding area support (transportation hubs, hospitals, police/fire locations), max 5kmx5km. Identification of Key Objects related to site Risk Key Site Observations leveraging additional Open Source content Area: up to 10 square kilometers |
Geopolitical Context
What is the undercurrent in this area?
| Trend/Sentiment in a location | |
| Report Details | |
| Analysis | Accounting for regional political influences, a view of the political trends in the local populations Key Object Identification – Structures, roads, moveable and fixed assets, physical and manmade related to Risk |
| Geo-political issues, variables and trigger points related to seen or identifiable objects will be assessed on specific requirements – demonstrations, marches, protests, gatherings, military activity based on geo-political events will be identified as well as damage resulting from said activities. Police, military outposts/facilities, political offices/gathering area’s, vehicles, equipment, tents, groups of people will be identified. | |
| Input types | Satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, field observation, road network, national mapping agencies, secondary research, customer supplied |
| Discovery Report | Immediate changes underway called out Identification of Key Object relevant toward project completion/goals Infrastructure – Roads, Transportation, Water, Power Area: up to 5 square kilometers |
| Analysis Report | Historical context provided. Identification of Key Object and Key Changes Key Site Observations leveraging additional Open Source content Area: up to 10 square kilometers |
Public Reporting Verification
Can I see it with my own eyes?
| Checking the “obvious” vs the “reported” | |
| Report Details | |
| Analysis | Accounting for local reports of information, provide an overview that not only provides a geospatial context for such reporting, but also then maps reports to observed changes on the ground |
| Area or facilities will be evaluated on publicly reported security events for visual conformation – Any security related, demonstrations, marches, protests, gatherings, military activity as well as damage resulting from said activities will be evaluated. Police, military outposts/facilities, political offices/gathering area’s, vehicles, equipment, tents, groups of people will be identified. Any damage or changes related to natural disasters will be assessed. | |
| Input types | Satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, field observation, road network, national mapping agencies, secondary research, customer supplied |
| Discovery Report | Comparison of “reported” changes to visible changes Identification of Key Object relevant toward comparison Infrastructure – Roads, Transportation, Water, Power Area: up to 5 square kilometers |
| Analysis Report | Comparison of “reported” changes to visible changes Identification of Key Object and Key Changes made toward project completion/goals Key Site Observations leveraging additional Open Source content Quantification and estimation of project readiness Area: up to 10 square kilometers |
