Description
Technology Overview
This site is a research project of the FMS Advanced Systems Group. It is designed to explore the application of cutting-edge system techniques to the problem of threat assessment, intelligence gathering and dissemination, and information visualization and analysis. As a web-based portal, the system is based on the Sentinel TMS database platform, and a middle-tier comprised of J2EE, Tomcat and similar web servers, and a variety of operating systems.
TrackingTheThreat.com attempts to bridge the gap between rich-client analytical environments running on Windows or Unix/Linux platforms, and traditional web-based database query tools. By providing browser-based geospatial and network tools, coupled with the standard database tools, TrackingTheThreat.com investigates the application of new technologies and solution ideas.
The History of TrackingTheThreat.com
In the summer of 2002, a small team within FMS Inc. started work on a prototype application that would perform data analysis on entity and relationship data. This prototype, called Sentinel TMS, was designed to apply basic network theory and social network analysis to the problems faced by the United States Federal Government in “connecting the dots”, with a keen focus on data related to 9/11 and the Al Qaeda network.
