The color scheme ranges from green (least subjected to surveillance) through yellow and orange to red (most surveillance). Note the '2007' date in the image relates to the document from which the interactive map derives its top secret classification, not to the map itself. The National Security Agency has developed a powerful tool for recording and analysing where its intelligence comes from, raising questions about its repeated assurances to Congress that it cannot keep track of all the surveillance it performs on American communications. The Guardian has acquired top-secret documents about the NSA datamining tool, called Boundless Informant, that details and even maps by country the voluminous amount of information it collects from computer and telephone networks. The focus of the internal NSA tool is on counting and categorizing the records of communications, known as metadata, rather than the content of an email or instant message. The Boundless Informant documents show the agency collecting almost 3 billion pieces of intelligence from US computer networks over a 30-day period ending in March 2013. One document says it is designed to give NSA officials answers to questions like, "What type of coverage do we have on country X" in "near real-time by asking the SIGINT [signals intelligence] infrastructure." An NSA factsheet about the program, acquired by the Guardian, says: "The tool allows users to select a country on a map and view the metadata volume and select details about the collections against that country." Under the heading "Sample use cases", the factsheet also states the tool shows information including: "How many records (and what type) are collected against a particular country." A snapshot of the Boundless Informant data, contained in a top secret NSA "global heat map" seen by the Guardian, shows that in March 2013 the agency collected 97bn pieces of intelligence from computer networks worldwide. Iran was the country where the largest amount of intelligence was gathered, with more than 14bn reports in that period, followed by 13.5bn from Pakistan. Jordan, one of America's closest Arab allies, came third with 12.7bn, Egypt fourth with 7.6bn and India fifth with 6.3bn. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/08/nsa-boundless-informant-global-datamining

Hy, i want to know the best grapfic station in world for all gis software..if somebody have a clue.We have money---just need to buy Cheers

Hello friends, Sometime is difficult to configure the system. 32 bits, with all the application and specially the drivers working perfect ? But the accessed memory limited at 2.97 giga ? Or 64, with problems with the drivers ? And of course, all the memory accessed ? For example, I was extremely disappointed with a plotter driver not working on W7 64...They announce officially that no deriver in the future on the manufacture site. and others..... I find a solution: Upload at http://www.sendspace.com/file/qg1n8h It is a small windows patch, allow on the 32 systems to acces all the memory ! Tested and work Regards
