SignalAtlas

Each OSINT source has its own data shape, update cadence, and access pattern. SignalAtlas needed a common search and filter layer across those genuinely different feed types, plus alerting so analysts didn't have to keep re-checking manually for new matches — a dashboard aggregating multiple open-source intelligence feeds into one place to search and filter public data instead of checking each source manually.

What I Built

• Multi-source feed aggregation pulling from several public data sources
• Cross-source search and structured filtering
• Saved-search alerting flagging new matches automatically
• Analyst-friendly dashboard UI for reviewing aggregated data

Tech Stack

• Backend: Python
• Frontend: React
• Database: PostgreSQL / Elasticsearch
• Scraping: Multiple source-specific collectors

Key Decisions

• Built a common search and filter layer across genuinely different OSINT feed types rather than exposing each source's native interface, since analysts needed one consistent way to query regardless of source
• Added saved-search alerting so analysts didn't have to keep manually re-checking sources for new matches, turning a repetitive manual task into a passive one

Outcome / Impact

Gave analysts a single searchable view instead of manually checking each source individually, with alerting replacing repetitive manual re-checks.
