The internet is overflowing with data, which has major implications for companies, business strategy, and litigation. Data sources can range from a video street camera, to an executive’s flight records, to Twitter and other social media.

The challenge of analyzing, filtering, and visualizing the vast amount and variety of all this information and putting it into usable form is being met with new technologies. When it comes to litigation, identifying and acting on key documents, email, or texts that have a significant impact on the legal strategy of a matter requires an efficient and detailed document review.

In this podcast interview at Legalweek 2023 with George Socha, Senior Vice President at Reveal-Brainspace, Mike Gaudet, Managing Director in J.S. Held’s Digital Investigations & Discovery group, discusses how to navigate the exponential growth of data sources through the use of new technologies that streamline the collection and analysis of information.

Among the topics discussed are:

  • Gathering data from countless internet sources for aggregating, analyzing, and visualizing
  • Placing visual layers on top of data collected
  • Building contact maps
  • Big Data and predictive analytics
  • Macro-level dashboards
  • ChatGPT and the use of Artificial Intelligence
