Geospatial platforms can provide OSINT investigators with a wide range of critical tools and capabilities, including the ability to research and map criminal activities using satellite imagery, track the movement of contraband, and identify emerging threats with real time web camera data. In addition, many geospatial platforms include tools for monitoring social media and other online sources of information related to key developments and events. On an even larger scale, geospatial platforms can be used to plan and coordinate emergency response efforts in the event of a natural disaster, terrorist attack, or other major crisis situation.
By helping to map out key infrastructure and resources, emergency responders can then more effectively allocate their resources and optimize their response to a given situation in real time.
