Intelligence & Analysis

SISM/
AI Verification Engine

AI Verification & Analysis Engine

The "Agentic Workflow" — a 4-stage automated pipeline that processes every news event from initial signal detection through satellite verification to confidence scoring.

Stage A

Signal Triangulation

Ingestion Layer

Multi-source data ingestion aggregates conflict, news, and OSINT signals from diverse sources across the MENA/GCC region.

Conflict Data

ACLED API

Structured event data on political violence and protests across Africa, Middle East, and Asia.

Conflict Mapping

Liveuamap API

Real-time conflict mapping with geolocated events and territorial control data.

General News

GDELT Project

Global Database of Events, Language, and Tone — monitoring broadcast, print, and web news.

Local Intelligence

Telegram OSINT

Official military and regional channels with custom scraping and translation logic.

Arabic/Persian Media

Parseek

Arabic and Persian media aggregator for regional news coverage not available in English sources.

Stage B

Geospatial Auto-Tagging

NER Processing

Named Entity Recognition (NER) extracts precise coordinates from unstructured text, automatically snapping news icons to pre-defined infrastructure points.

Entity Extraction

NER Engine

Custom-trained multilingual NER model optimized for Arabic, Persian, and English geographic entities.

GPS Database

Critical Infrastructure DB

Pre-defined GPS coordinates for refineries, ports, desalination plants, data centers, and military installations.

Geo-matching

Snap Logic

Proximity-based algorithm that matches extracted locations to nearest critical infrastructure within configurable radius.

Stage C

Satellite Ground Truth

Verification Layer

Multi-modal satellite imagery provides all-weather, 24/7 structural change detection and damage assessment for ground truth verification.

Day-time Optical

Sentinel-2 (Optical)

Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem — fire/damage detection through spectral analysis of optical imagery.

All-Weather Radar

Sentinel-1 (SAR)

Synthetic Aperture Radar for 24/7 structural change detection through cloud, smoke, and darkness.

High-Resolution

Planet/SkyWatch

0.5m resolution imagery for detailed verification of specific "Hot Zone" events and infrastructure damage.

Stage D

Confidence Scoring & Summarization

AI Analysis

LLM-powered analysis assigns confidence scores based on the full evidence chain, generating multilingual geopolitical summaries.

AI Analysis

LLM Engine

Large language model for evidence analysis, confidence scoring (Verified/Unverified/Propaganda), and geopolitical context.

Audit Trail

Evidence Drawer

Complete chain of evidence from all pipeline stages, forming the "Digital Chain of Custody" for each event.

Translation

Multilingual NLP

English, Arabic, and Farsi summary generation with cultural context preservation and regional terminology.

Confidence Score Distribution

Verified
37%

Corroborated by 2+ independent sources AND satellite imagery confirms ground truth.

Unverified
50%

Single-source report OR awaiting satellite confirmation. Displayed with caution indicator.

Propaganda
13%

Source analysis and cross-referencing indicate deliberate misinformation or state propaganda.
