In Ukraine, they created a platform for OSINT reconnaissance: what will help the military

The Kolossal Map enables the military to check different details and get up -to -date information on the enemy's forces. The Deepstateua developers team created a Kolossal military intelligence platform that collects and processes Osint Danish arrays and then turns them into simple and understandable information. This was announced by the Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine Mikhail Fedorov in his Telegram channel on Wednesday, December 6.

He noted that every day the enemy publishes dozens of photos and videos on the Internet, which illuminates its positions, location and equipment. These are useful data for the military. But to find them, you need to check thousands of pages on social networks, hundreds of different websites and other resources. There are already units that professionally conduct open sources (OSINT) intelligence and collect useful information. But not all military can do this, especially on the front.

Therefore, the Ukrainian team of Deepstateua developers created the Kolossal platform. On the interactive map, warriors will be able to check or clarify specific details to better plan their own actions. After all, quality intelligence is the basis of successful counteraction to the enemy. The map makes it possible to see the weather, radiation background and even natural disasters in a particular region of Ukraine.

In addition, data are available for both the territory controlled and occupied by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. On the map you can also see the location of defense structures: capons, moats, trenches and barriers of the "teeth of the dragon", which the Russians try to protect against the caterpillar equipment of the Armed Forces.

On the interactive map you can also see the effects of nuclear weapons: it is enough to decide on geolocation and enter the weight of the charge into a special field. Technologies will not only show which territories fall into the area of ​​the lesion, but also give the user recommendations of the Ministry of Health depending on the situation in a particular affected region.

The Kolossal map also allows you to choose from the list of means of damage and calculate which settlements are in the area of ​​direct danger of shelling, if the enemy takes a weapon at one point or another. But the most important thing is that the interactive map shows the actual placement of the enemy forces. However, the creators warn that, despite the constantly updated information, the map cannot be used to lay evacuation routes, as it can be life -threatening.

Mikhail Fedorov said that the developer team is now carrying out technology testing, as well as on the basis of users' reviews improves Kolossal tools. We will remind, at the end of November Europol created a special OSINT group investigation of war crimes of the Russian Federation.

The task of the operational group is to identify the suspects and their involvement in the likely military crimes, crimes against humanity or the crimes of genocide committed in Ukraine by collecting and analyzing reconnaissance data from open sources. And earlier we wrote about how open data intelligence works.
