  2. Collection — collect from the 9 mapped sources (8 free) — filter the catalog by ECONINT; capture provenance and observe OPSEC.
  3. Processing — normalize, de-duplicate and enrich the collected data.
  4. Analysis — correlate against local holdings; apply ACH; assign confidence.
  5. Dissemination — open a case, draft a report, share via STIX/MISP.
  6. Feedback — set an alert rule / watchlist to monitor for change.

🎯 Mission

Economic Intelligence collects trade flows, commodity movements, industrial capacity, and macroeconomic indicators to assess the economic health, dependencies, and vulnerabilities of states, sectors, and firms. It answers how goods and capital move, where supply-chain chokepoints and resource dependencies lie, and what the real economic impact of policy or sanctions is.

📡 Collection methods

  • Bilateral trade-flow and mirror-statistics analysis (import/export gap detection)
  • Commodity price and futures-curve monitoring
  • Supply-chain input-output and dependency mapping by HS code
  • Satellite-derived economic indicators (night-lights, port congestion, storage-tank levels)
  • AIS shipping-pattern analysis for trade-route and volume estimation
  • Corporate filing and earnings-disclosure extraction

🔧 Tools & frameworks

  • QGIS
  • Python/pandas
  • OEC
  • Kepler.gl
  • Datawrapper
  • R
  • Tableau Public

📜 Economic Intelligence Tradecraft

  1. Collect trade, price, and shipping series for the target sector and its upstream inputs
  2. Reconcile mirror trade statistics and clean units, currencies, and HS-code revisions
  3. Model input-output dependencies and identify chokepoints and substitution options
  4. Attribute anomalous flows to specific firms, ports, or transshipment hubs via AIS and filings
  5. Deliver a sector risk-and-dependency assessment with charts and confidence bands
  6. Trigger monitoring alerts on flagged commodities and brief supply-chain decision-makers
