Reading Global Intelligence

Country shading

How much intelligence ProcIntel currently holds about a country. It is a measure of coverage, not a country risk rating.

Points

Only records with a genuinely precise location. A record known only to a country is shaded, never pinned. Larger points are more significant.

Developing Intelligence

Every country a situation touches is highlighted — a situation is not forced onto one point.

Chokepoints

Curated, verified coordinates. Major shipping routes are ProcIntel-derived corridors modelled on observed commercial traffic (2015–2021) — never live lanes, volumes or status.

Active conflict areas

First-level areas where the Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP) recorded organised violence in the last 90 days, above a stated threshold. Areas, never incident points, front lines or forces. Being near one is a spatial fact, not an assessment of impact.

Trade & transport disruption

ProcIntel's own Events, classified by their type and evidenced place (a port, a chokepoint, a country's trade measures). The Event's evidence is the claim.

Awareness

A short, deterministic selection of what matters most right now across ProcIntel intelligence, disruption, conflict and natural hazards — chosen from significance, confidence, recency and precision. It is not a risk score.

Time selector

Events are filtered by when ProcIntel recorded them, not by a confirmed real-world date — most Events do not carry one. Signals are filtered by their publication date.

Imagery

Satellite imagery and terrain are background context from the map provider; they are not ProcIntel intelligence.
