# Integrated Joint Operations Platform
**Domain:** Algorithmic surveillance
**Doc Type:** Developed System Node
**Maturity:** Developed
**Collection:** [[collections/Gamification|Gamification Collection]]
## Definition
The **Integrated Joint Operations Platform (IJOP)** is a policing and data-integration system used by Chinese authorities in Xinjiang. Human Rights Watch's reverse engineering of an associated police app found that it aggregates personal and behavioral data, flags people or circumstances deemed suspicious, and prompts investigation.
## Significance
IJOP is a high-consequence classifier: ordinary activity can become a feature, a flag can trigger official attention, and the represented person may have little visibility into the model or opportunity to contest it. It belongs in this collection as a warning against treating scoring as metaphor.
