Border management solution
First Claim
1. A computer-based system for implementing a border management application architecture comprising:
- at least one processor;
at least one computerized database storing border management data; and
at least one computer-readable medium encoding instructions for implementing a border management application architecture, wherein said instructions include;
providing a set of core applications for standard border management functions in a shared applications architecture, wherein the set of core applications includes a process imports application, a process exports application, one or more investigation applications, an entry processing application, an exit processing application, and a form submission and processing application;
providing a customer channel interface for interconnecting a set of customer channels that provide individual access points for a plurality of users of the border management application architecture and the set of core applications;
providing one or more management access interfaces for interconnecting one or more management access channels with the set of core applications to thereby provide access points and tools for the sharing and access of border management data among the set of core applications; and
providing an enforcement database storing case data and individual data;
wherein the set of core applications further comprise a set of case management applications, wherein the set of case management applications further comprise a set of intelligence applications used to transform the border management data into intelligence using the shared border management data and the case data and the individual data stored in the enforcement database.

Abstract
An integrated border management solution providing a balance between facilitating the movement of people and commerce with the requirements of immigration, customs, and other border-focused law enforcement. The facilitation aspect of the solution includes processing of arrivals and departures, as well as processing requests triggered by forms and applications such as requests for visas, asylum or customs declarations. The enforcement aspect of the solution includes border enforcement alerts and communication, as well as a comprehensive, integrated investigation and intelligence workbench. The border management solution is based upon a border management business architecture defining the structure for developing a border management solution in terms of its capabilities and the interrelationships of those capabilities. The border management solution according to the present invention may be implemented as an integrated whole or as component parts to a border management solution.
