The VRAâ Knowledge Manager is a real-time data development and analysis software system designed to process large volumes of text-based information. The system can illuminate countries’ vulnerabilities to natural and social hazards by monitoring global news wire service reports, assessing them and presenting up-to-the-minute intelligence in graphs, maps and tables

  • In near real-time
  • Using news feed and field data
  • With graphs and maps linked to the original input
  • Using a set of dictionaries or “protocol” and baseline data 

By spotting areas where instability or violence are likely to occur, VRAâ Knowledge Manager is currently providing early warnings about potential international “hot spots” to government agencies, academic institutions, intergovernmental and nongovernmental humanitarian organizations, and the intelligence community. In addition, the VRAâ Knowledge Manager can be user-customized to monitor and analyze any number of profiles useful in business, finance, and mass media.
