GEOINT Exploitation and analysis of imagery and geospatial information to describe, assess, and visually depict physical features and geographically referenced activities on the earth Components of GEOINT Imagery IMINT Geospatial Intelligence Imagery Overview produced by space-based national intelligence reconnaissance systems, satellites, airborne platforms; used to update GEOINT foundational data; electronic still or motion formats IMINT Overview technical, geographic, and intelligence information derived through interpretation or analysis of imagery and collateral material Geospatial Information Overview geographic location and characteristics of natural or constructed features and boundaries Components of GEOINT--Imagery products produced by space-based national intelligence systems, updates GEOINT foundational data, GEOINTs primary source when exploited through IMINT, still or motion formats Components of GEOINT--IMINT product resulting from processing and exploiting raw imagery; derived from EO/IR/multi-spectral, and laser sensors; results used in all-source products Components of GEOINT--Geospatial provides analyst with detailed statistical data regarding location and features of object on earth; basic framework for visualizing the operational environment; includes maps, charts, publications, databases. EO Sensor provides digital imagery in the IR, visible, and ultra-violet spectrum; provides high level of detail, affected by weather, cannot image at night IR Sensor effective during periods of limited visibility; detect ongoing and past action based on residual thermal effects Spectral Sensor detects/locates objects with a known signature; uses discrete spectral bands; typically in IR/visible region RADAR Sensor provides all-weather imaging capabilities; primary nigh capability; images created from reflected energy in RF band LIDAR Sensor transmit laser energy to target and records time for energy to return to sensor; supports large-scale production of high-resolution digital elevation products; displays high resolution 3D models HUMINT A category of intelligence derived from information collected and provided by human sources. HUMINT Collection Capabilities--Intelligence Interrogation systematic approach to a question a captured person to obtain reliable information to satisfy intelligence requirement HUMINT Collection Capabilities--Source Operations development of information through direct/indirect questioning of overt/clandestine sources; consist of 'walk-in, developed, and unwitting sources' HUMINT Collection Capabilities--Debriefing questioning cooperative human sources consistent with applicable law; willing to cooperate; consists of 'friendly forces, refugees, returnees, & volunteers' Counterintelligence Overview uses similar collection techniques as HUMINT, but targets those entities targeting friendly forces; exploitation of data is critical to I&W & force protection
