First Claim
1. An information retrieval and analysis system implemented, at least in part, in a computer system, and structured for use in a system for providing travel related information to a consumer having a consumer-specific profile, comprising:
- a collection subsystem obtaining information from at least one data source(s);
an analysis subsystem filtering said obtained information to identify characteristics of said obtained information that will impact travel or the consumer; and
a distribution-subsystem directing said filtered data to at least one portion of said system for providing travel related information, said distribution subsystem having a component for classifying said filtered data as supplemental content or as an alert.

Abstract
A system(s) and method(s) for providing travel, asset, and personnel information accumulation, analysis, and reporting for improved risk assessment and management are disclosed. In various embodiments methods and systems may provide travel information to a consumer, by for example, acquiring information from at least one information source, characterizing the acquired information by its pertinence to travel, transforming the characterized travel information into a useable format, applying rules to this transformed travel information in connection with the consumer-specific travel profile, and delivering a report to the consumer. In various embodiments, risk assessments(s) may be provided and may include receiving intelligence from at least one intelligence source, receiving information about one or more asset(s), and generating a risk assessment report. Various embodiments may also include receiving intelligence from at least one intelligence source, receiving asset information, and generating a risk assessment report based on the intelligence and a personnel or employee profile.
