Just throwing this out there...
Is anyone (else) thinking about or looking into "Case Analysis: Data: (Representation, Bases, Sheets, Maps, Mining) and Methodologies/Workflows)" ? Any recommended OSINT apps/workflows?
Not expecting anyone to have all the answers, but how about we swap notes here?
What exists, or could be assembled, to improve the quality, productivity and pleasure of correlating information from multiple sources? Example source types include witness statements, interviews, talks, rumours, ideas. Is there anything to assist the correlation of such information in terms of one or more story "universes", eg each "universe" representing a different hypothesis and most likely differing in terms of timelines. Tools to simplify their comparison. Mega-DIFF.
What is a good and practical methodology/procedure/workflow and app (software/service) based solution to support such an approach? Integrated AI-based solutions tend to be prohibitively expensive. Can something sensible be assembled out of readily available (though possibly specialised or even open source) components (apps or coding libraries) ? Does such a project/solution already exist? Do other people (eg you) already do that? Without falling down an informal research & development rabbit-hole?
Some possible angles:

Some possible angles:
- Big picture: OSINT Resources
- Standard databases and spreadsheets (with dynamic macros/functions/computations/dependencies)
- Specialised timeline-supporting apps/tools.
- Hyper note supporting apps/services such as (geeky, advancing) ROAM and (popular-appeal, stable) Notion.
- Witness statement notation systems (useful as shorthand and as possible input to dynamic display and reasoning systems)
- Any related data standards (eg in XML).
- Coding from scratch (eg in a simple/dynamic/flexible object-oriented programming language such as Smalltalk).
- Audio (eg Podcast) and Video (eg YT) analysis/mark-up strategy/tools (eg CinePlay, ELAN, FCPX...)
