  SEARCH ENGINES
  13-14. Search engines provide access to previously collected or known
  information facilitating the development of comprehensive analytical and
  intelligence products and avoiding unnecessary collection tasking
  redundancy. A tool set for data visualization, search, and discovery is
  required, which is embedded with several software programs for
  manipulating data from multiple databases. The types of modules in
  visualization packages should include search engines and knowledge
  discovery (semantic clustering) for unformatted data, applications for
  extracting and organizing formatted data, and data labeling. The package
  should also include a model building tool to enable users to make their
  archives more efficient with respect to search, retrieval, and compatibility
  to other applications as well as archiving and maintenance tools to support
  what will eventually become a large data warehouse. Search engines
  should be⎯
  • Multilingual and able to query multiple classified and unclassified
  databases.
  • Capable of developing, querying, and manipulating stored
  information.
  WEB-BASED REPORTING AND PORTALS
  13-15. Web-based reporting employs current Internet portal technology. The
  web-based portal is an efficient and effective means of developing a
  repository of HUMINT information. It employs an interactive graphic
  interface using client browser technology, search engines, hyperlinks, and
  intelligent software agents for searching, finding, viewing, and maintaining
  databases and supporting HUMINT work, data, and information flows. It
  supports collaborative analysis at multiple echelons through connectivity
  on the SIPRNET. The following pertains to web-based reporting:
  • Web-based databases work with any computer hardware, operating
  system, or software and can be made accessible through web portals.
  • Firewalls and information access are controlled at each level with an
  approving systems administrator at each level conducting quality
  control through release authority procedures.
  • Graphic user interface uses standard Army and DOD report formats.
  • Graphic user interface walks the user through a critical task and is
  able to identify Army and DOD reports as required. Reports must be
  Army and DOD platform compatible and transferable through and to
  their respective systems.
  • Multimedia supports applications for attaching, associating, and
  hyperlinking video, still photographs, voice, scanned objects,
  graphics, and maps to records and files.
  13-16. Web-based reporting and web pages developed for specific products
  allow the user to⎯
  • Leverage their effort and expertise against all requirements, not just
  the ones that must be met immediately.
