Stay Ahead of Global Uncertainty With Real-time Geopolitical Intelligence for Esri

For a complete understanding of the threats to their organizations, all intelligence analysts must consider how geopolitical events — such as a global pandemic, terrorist attack, or natural disaster — will impact their organization, supply chain, and industry. They need to respond swiftly to these threats, to mitigate disruptions to operations and protect their assets, but organizations are still susceptible to being blindsided at the most inopportune times because intelligence often lags.

Relying on disparate data sources and manual processes means insights are often incomplete or outdated. Most analysts spend too much time manually collecting, analyzing, and visualizing a vast amount of intelligence — not to mention translating information from news sources in these regions’ local languages. To monitor and respond to geopolitical threats in real time, teams need a more efficient and collaborative way to report on relevant insights that drive more informed decision-making.
