Using only basic tools, you can see only small part of it.

If you can see the whole, you can become frustrated by inability to see what is inside.

1st objective is to FIND

What information is available ?

Make it searchable by the most advanced technology designed for analysts.

Reduce time for searching information!

2nd objective is to UNDERSTAND

What knowledge can be extracted?

Use tools for content & context analyses applicable in multiple languages.

Reduce time for analyses!

3rd objective is to UTILISE

What knowledge can be easily shared?

Use knowledge mapping tools applicable for information profiling.

Reduce time for dissemination.
