Abstract: A method for identifying stakeholders relative to an issue is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method may include accessing first data associated with a plurality of individuals associated with an organization; generating first nodes representing the plurality of individuals within an issue graph model; accessing second data associated with one or more policies; generating second nodes representing the one or more policies within the issue graph model based on the second data; receiving an indication of a selected agenda issue; generating links within the issue graph model representing relationships between the first nodes and the second nodes; determining importance scores for the first nodes in the issue graph; identifying a node of the plurality of first nodes associated with the at least one selected agenda issue based on the importance scores; and outputting node properties associated with the identified node.

Abstract: A system for generating and analyzing issue graphs is disclosed. In one embodiment, at least one processor is configured to access first data associated with a plurality of policymakers; generate one or more first nodes representing the plurality of policymakers within an issue graph model; generate a second node within the issue graph model representing an organization; receive, via a user interface, a selection of at least one agenda issue of interest to the organization; receive user data via the user interface; generate links within the issue graph model representing relationships between the first nodes and the second node, the relationships being identified based on the first data, the user data, and the selected agenda issue; determine a gravitas score based on the issue graph model; and cause display of a network representing the issue graph model, the display including a representation of the gravitas score.

Abstract: A system for generating and analyzing organizational influence data is disclosed. In one embodiment, at least one processor is configured to access first data associated with a plurality of policymakers; generate first nodes representing the plurality of policymakers within an issue graph model; generate a second node representing an organization; receive a selection of an agenda issue of interest to the organization; access second data associated with the organization; generate links within the issue graph model representing relationships between the first nodes and the second node; determine an organizational influence factor comprising a measure of how likely the second node is to affect a property of each of the first nodes; identify at least one node of the first nodes associated with the selected agenda issue based on the organizational influence factor; and output node properties associated with the identified node.

Abstract: A system for normalizing aggregated electronic data may include at least one processor and a memory. The processor may access data scraped from a plurality of local databases, each storing localized terms for temporal local milestones; for example, a first localized term for a first temporal milestone in a first locale may differ from a second localized term for a similar second temporal milestone in a second locale. The processor may store the temporal local milestones in a central database, determine a mapping of each of the localized terms for each temporal local milestone to a normalized term for each milestone, and identify, in a displayed timeline associated with the first locale, each associated temporal local milestone using the normalized term for each milestone. The processor may further identify, in a displayed timeline associated with the second locale, each associated temporal local milestone using the normalized term for each milestone.

Abstract: An apparatus for attaching a handheld tool to a bucket of a prime mover includes a first plate having an aperture therethrough. The aperture is configured to receive a fastener for attaching the first plate to the bucket. A second plate is disposed opposite the first plate, and includes a second aperture therethrough for receiving a fastener for attaching the second plate to the bucket. A support structure is attached to the first and second plates, and is configured to support the handheld tool. A first clamp is attached to the support structure, and sized to receive a portion of the handheld tool, thereby at least partially securing the handheld tool to the support structure.

Abstract: Arthropod monitoring stations are provided, as well as methods for using them. The stations comprise a housing having a first end, a second end, and lateral wall extending between the first end and the second end. The first end, second end, and lateral wall substantially define an interior portion of the housing, and at least one of the first end, the second end, and the lateral wall includes at least one aperture suitable for ingress or egress by an arthropod with rest to said interior of said housing. Preferably, at least two members are disposed within the housing, each of the members having a first end, a second end, and a lateral wall extending between the first end and the second end. At least one of the members comprises a material capable of being consumed by arthropods, a material capable of being penetrated by arthropods, a material capable of being transported by arthropods, or a material capable of killing arthropods.
