Abstract : To reduce the ambiguity and the different semantic interpretations of human observers’ reports, we propose a new paradigm in collaborating information using icons to represent concepts or ideas. Two prototypes of icon-based communication interfaces were developed with which users can create iconic messages to report situations where a crisis event occurs. The interfaces interpret and convert the messages to human natural language. A context-aware collaborative information system filters irrelevant and infidelity reports and shares the results for further decision making
