C4ADS
Project Title
For new approaches and partnerships to analyze proliferation-related trade flows
Date
Jun. 14, 2018
Duration
24 months
Description
In recent years, sophisticated analytic platforms have created new opportunities to use public data to monitor and verify nonproliferation agreements. Shifting from proprietary sources to open, unrestricted data allows for novel insights, reduces barriers to sharing data, and creates new avenues for coordination. Through earlier work, C4ADS has demonstrated how publicly available data and network analytics can supplement traditional monitoring and verification techniques. Through this grant, C4ADS will provide proofs of concept that can be adapted and scaled, including a data-sharing blueprint that can serve as a foundation for future partnerships.
