System and Method for Intelligence Gathering and Analysis
First Claim
1. A computing system for intelligence gathering and analysis, the system comprising:
- a computer-based remote avatar rendering and maintenance module configured to provide an indicator for users to select targeted data streams presented as weapon icons that includes user-selected analysis priorities and threshold attributes of the targeted data;
a computer-based remote self-directed data gathering and communication module configured to provide administration programs that coordinate and control timing and execution of commercially available web search, crawler, and messaging applications;
a computer-based remote personalized data stream analysis module configured to provide administration programs that coordinate and control timing and execution of data consolidation, workflow and scoring programs related to the analysis module; and
a database configured to store and manage electronic data related to administrative control of all other system applications and to hold all user gathered data and analysis records as defined specific to the system requirements.

Abstract
A computing system for intelligence gathering and analysis includes a computer-based remote avatar rendering and maintenance module, a self-directed data gathering and communication module, a remote personalized data stream analysis module, and a database. The avatar rendering and maintenance module provides an indicator for users to select targeted data streams presented as weapon icons that includes user-selected analysis priorities and threshold attributes of the targeted data. The self-directed data gathering and communication module provides administration programs that coordinate and control the timing and execution of commercially available web search, crawler, and messaging applications. The personalized data stream analysis module provides administration programs that coordinate and control the timing and execution of data consolidation, workflow and scoring programs related to the analysis module. The database stores and manages electronic data related to administrative control of all other system applications and to hold all user gathered data and analysis records as defined specific to the system requirements.

18. A method for self-directed filtered electronic data gathering and automated delivery and presentation of analytical data to users via interaction with a computer generated avatar, wherein said data is contained in a computer database that holds gathered data as augmented by a trend analysis computer program, the method comprising:
-
instantiating a plurality of remote computer-based applications comprising an avatar maintenance module, a data gathering module, a data scoring engine module, a data storage module, and a data interaction module, wherein the avatar maintenance module comprises an avatar graphical report program, an avatar builder program, a weapon selection program, a communicator select program, and a watcher install program; receiving a communication from a user initiated web browser session at a remote front-end web server via a local computer device executing a browser; prompting the user via the watcher install program to create a login with a user-id and password, wherein a local status watcher communication application is downloaded and installed via a secure internet communication session; saving user account information and executing the avatar builder program to present the user with choices to select avatar graphical attributes via a second browser session; receiving from the user a selection of weapons monitoring targets and preferred communication modes; and receiving selection of an activate button within the avatar builder interface to run the avatar activate program that sends an electronic message containing the user-id and a status code to a battle application, wherein the battle application schedules gatherers comprising at least one data source query tools that begins collecting data on behalf of the user. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
