Digital Transformation through Transportation Agency Threat and Intelligence Briefing Automation

Transportation Officers are only able to effectively do their jobs if they have accurate and up to date intelligence about the most recent threats and possible disruptions to passenger travel.

Iternal’s software enables Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies to programmatically generate human consumable intelligence reports and updates specifically curated to the individual responsibilities of each Transportation Officer. Additionally, Iternal’s software can curate, unify, and aggregate disparate content data sets from multiple databases and allow it to be used and presented in new ways, and enabling a true unified single source of truth to aid in Intelligence Fusion.

Intelligence reports are only as good as the are up-to-date and maintained as facts on the ground change. Iternal’s software enables the generation of live and dynamic documents / reports that always stay up to date even when intel is updated. Through automatic updating, your Transportation Officers can be certain that anytime they access a specific document or report, the information will be the latest version available.

• Combine Iternal’s software with a rules or logic engine to provide instructions to Iternal’s software on what content should be generated, in what media format, and using which sets of data. The instructions can be infinitely customized to address the need for flexibility in a variety of situations, from collection user input questionnaires, to generating documents as part of automated workflows and more.
  
• Automatically turn insights and data into human-readable reports through simple templates in a variety of media formats (MS Word, MS PowerPoint, PDF);
  
• IdeaBlock Modular Components of content allow for highly detailed metadata and tagging to be applied at the IdeaBlock level, which results in greater tagging accuracy and usefulness. Advanced tagging can be utilized in other AI and Machine Learning use cases for generation of new content (passenger communications, reporting, training, etc), analytics, or other forms of data processing.
  
• Iternal’s software eliminates many point solutions that cause data silos and poor information and knowledge sharing. Because Iternal’s software is flexible enough to meet the needs of many use cases and departments everyone in the org can standardize on a single platform, reducing data silos, improving collaboration, and leading to a network effect where the knowledge from your best and brightest is able to be easily accessed by everyone in the org 24x7x365;
  
• IdeaBlock Modular Components reside in a data hierarchy. This allows the information to be reused when needed while also allowing flexibility. Such change would not impact any other modular component in the hierarchy – maximizing reusability.
  
• Establish an inheritance based framework for structured and unstructured data organization that drastically eliminates duplicate and redundant content by a factor of approx. 3x depending on the use case;
  
• Constantly maintain data accuracy and quality by automatically receiving updates made to IdeaBlocks in the originating system and distributing such updates to any system or output (like a document or report) that has received a copy of that IdeaBlock;
  
• Iternal’s software programmatically builds all major media formats using AI, Automation, and Templates and therefore can complete work much faster than a human, accelerating the ability to produce highly complex media formats such as videos, reports, audio / podcasts, graphic designed brochures, and other forms of media.
  
• Apply a common structure to unstructured data for easy ingestion, review, analysis, categorization, and re-use;
  
• Templatization allows for the standardization of output to a specific form and structure and maps that structure to IdeaBlock Modular Components.
• Templates which are fed from IdeaBlocks benefit from the flexibility of where that data comes from, API, Internally Stored Data, External Databases, Custom Input Form, etc. This dramatically accelerates the ability to produce compliant outputs in a variety of media formats.
  
• Streamline and unify the sharing of data in multimedia formats (text, slides, images, audio, video) in a curated fashion (only share the information that matters) between systems like other Federal, State, and / or Local Agencies for related tasks (such as Immigration Processing, Passport Applications, Government Clearances, Background Checks, etc);
  
• Connect multiple systems into a common foundation of Iternal’s software using the media format agnostic Iternal’s software API which allows for the storage of media in all major formats, and provides structured to unstructured data in a way that can allow for focused curation of data.
  
• Track and manage security classifications and formal security designations at the IdeaBlock Level (a modular component of information, i.e. a threat summary, a piece of traveler biographic data, etc);
  
• Accelerate approvals, changes, updates, and other modifications to constantly evolving content in the applicable foreign language;

Why use Iternal for your Agency’s Digital Transformation?

Instant Information, Content, Knowledge, and Data Control

Iternal’s patented software can near-instantly generate any major file format with the click of a single button and enables organizations to more effectively create, collaborate, organize, update and share content across all media major types — text, slides, audio, and video. In minutes, Government Agencies can rapidly build highly tailored videos, slide decks, proposals, webinars, podcasts, and other forms of media to reach users and Government personnel across a variety of use cases.

Highly Scalable APIs

Through a set of easy to integrate Application Program Interfaces (APIs) Iternal’s software can communicate with other existing technology systems to send and receive information and deliver content to other systems when and where it is needed. APIs are flexible/agnostic for both data input and output in all major media formats (text, slides, audio, video, images, etc).

Rapid Response Changes

Iternal’s software allows any organization to create weekly, daily, or even hourly changes to your messages at a global level and have updates propagate out instantaneously to all systems. One of the key advances of Iternal’s software is the system’s ability to manage Modular Components® of information, content, and knowledge (also known as “IdeaBlocks®”) in any major media format. The modularity of IdeaBlocks enables for substantial advances in reusability, lifecycle management, and elimination of substantial information duplication and redundancy.

Easy to Use

Simplicity is a core focus, and demonstrated by the average ramp-up speed for daily users being as short as a 10 minute online training video. More robust training is available to project or program managers via a Video On-demand 4 hour end-to-end comprehensive training course.

Supports 508 Compliant Communications

Iternal recognizes the importance of Section 508 Standards for Citizen communications. Iternal’s software can support Government Agencies in the delivery of 508 compliant communications via materials in various media types including visual and audio which meets or exceed the digital accessibility requirements outlined in Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. §794d), and the United States Access Board’s Revised Section 508 Standards.
