Extract maximum intelligence from your data
You can obtain the maximum value from your data by using the advanced analysis tools to analyze your investigation from a high level overview right down to the smallest detail. You can find association paths; identify clusters, find matching items, or construct visual searches for your investigation. A range of different chart layouts allows you to see facts, events and associations from different perspectives. This facilitates the identification of patterns and trends, ensuring you extract maximum intelligence from your data

Intuitive Analysis
Visualize information as Entities (objects) and Links (relationships), matching the way people think about real-world objects and making analysis more intuitive.

Key Functionality

Rapid chart creation
Charts can quickly be created by dragging and dropping entities, links and attributes onto the chart. The palette bar provides the user with a selection of entities and attributes which they can drag onto the chart surface.

Intuitive Data Importing
Analyst's Notebook allows you to automatically generate charts by importing data from source data files or from data held in the clipboard. An easy-to-use wizard guides you through the process of importing, allowing an Import Specification to be saved and used again. Any additional information can then be imported and added as it arrives, providing an up-to-date view of the available intelligence.

Powerful analytical capabilities
Analyst’s Notebook provides a range of analytical tools designed to help you convert high volumes of low value data into low volume high value intelligence. The range of analytical tools available include the list items, entity matching, visual search, find path, find linked and cluster analysis.

Chart representations appropriate for differing data types
Charts can be created in a variety of formats in order to best present the type of data. Link charting represents people, accounts, organizations and other entities together with the relationships or transfers of commodities between them. Network charting applies link charting techniques to large data sets, such as social networks, telephone data, financial transactions and internet traffic records to identify groups and clusters. Timeline charting reveals how sequences of events unfold over time.

Integration
The benefits of Analyst's Notebook can be enhanced by combining it with other i2 products. Options include adding a database for storage of data for use by a group of analysts (i2 iBase 5), direct access to external databases, analysis of unformatted text and the tools to allow custom plug-ins to be developed.
