Service: PRE-VIEW - Identification of international crisis

Responsible organisation: Federal Foreign Office (Central-Government)

The Federal Foreign Office uses the data analytics tool PRE- VIEW– Prediction, Visualization, Early Warning (Auswärtiges Amt, 2019) to identify evolving international crises. The tool analyzes publicly available data related to current political, economic, and societal trends and conflicts in order to identify developing crises. According to the Federal Foreign Office, AI is used to process the data, which is then used to produce infographics and maps to help provide insights into the state of a particular conflict. Furthermore, trend analyses illustrate how political and societal developments may evolve. PREVIEW is deployed by the Federal Foreign Office’s Department S, which oversees international stabilization measures and crises engagement. The output also supports the civil servants in determining which steps to take next.
