Available data sources and formats
In today’s increasingly digitized world, organizations have several
siloed data sources and internal databases that are relevant
to their operations. It is crucial to map the types of data your
organization has access to so you can select a solution that can
handle all of them. It’s important to address both internal data
sources, such as proprietary databases and reports, as well as
external sources, from other government agencies, financial
records, social media, and data provided under court orders,
such as call records.
Data formats
It is important to assess the format of data that you need
to process, especially when it comes to structured and
unstructured data. Many platforms cannot handle both,
leaving organizations with challenges when it comes to
connecting relevant datapoints that do not have unique
identifiers.
Data velocity
High-velocity data requires quick processing for time-sensitive
decisions and risk assessment. An example might be information
that someone is about to commit a crime, or that someone who
has committed a crime is about to leave the designated jurisdiction.
Utilizing a platform that enables timely data extraction and analysis
is essential for such use cases.
