1. A computer based data management system, comprising:
- a first communication link to support transfer of analytic data into said data management system;
a second communication link to support data transfer between said data management system and a first user;
a third communication link to support data transfer between said data management system and a second user;
a processor with program-controlled operation for processing a first data set received from said first communication link and a second data set, wherein said first data set is a different format than said second data set, and wherein said processing comprises converting said first and second data sets to a unified system format;
said processor further operable to;
generate a report utilizing said processed first and second data sets based on instructions received through said second communication link;
modify said report based on instructions received through said third communication link; and
calculate said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge relative to said first user, wherein said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge represents said second user'"'"'s level of knowledge on a particular topic as compared to said first user'"'"'s level of knowledge on the same topic.

Abstract
A computer based system manages the collection, analysis and presentation of data. The system in one arrangement includes an online platform for collecting and unifying data across multiple channels. The platform also provides a vehicle for a plurality of users/groups to collectively analyze the data. The present system in one illustrative embodiment thus provides a data clearinghouse for gathering information from a plurality of channels, facilitating the sharing of this information, and facilitating the cooperative analysis of this information.

15. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving, from a first communication link, analytic data; receiving, from a second communication link, data from a first user; processing, via a program-controlled processor, said analytic data and said data from the first user, wherein said analytic data is a different format or from a different source than said data from the first user, and wherein said processing comprises converting said analytic data and said data from the first user to a unified system format; generating a report based on instructions received through said second communication link, said report utilizing said converted analytic data and said converted data from the first user; modifying said report based on instructions received from a second user; and calculating said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge relative to said first user, wherein said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge represents said second user'"'"'s level of knowledge on a particular topic as compared to said first user'"'"'s level of knowledge on the same topic.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause said computer to:
-
receive, from a first communication link, analytic data; receive, from a second communication link, data from a first user; process, via a program-controlled processor, said analytic data and said data from the first user, wherein said analytic data is a different format or from a different source than said data from the first user, and wherein said processing comprises converting said analytic data and said data from the first user to a unified system format; generate a report based on instructions received through said second communication link, said report utilizing said converted analytic data and said converted data from the first user; modify said report based on instructions received from a second user; and calculate said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge relative to said first user, wherein said second user'"'"'s numeric indicia of topical knowledge represents said second user'"'"'s level of knowledge on a particular topic as compared to said first user'"'"'s level of knowledge on the same topic.
