intelligence operations — The variety of intelligence and counterintelligence tasks that are
carried out by various intelligence organizations and activities within the intelligence
process. Intelligence operations include planning and direction, collection, processing
and exploitation, analysis and production, dissemination and integration, and evaluation
and feedback. See also analysis and production; collection; dissemination and
integration; evaluation and feedback; planning and direction; processing and
exploitation. (JP 2-01)
intelligence preparation of the battlespace — The analytical methodologies employed by
the Services or joint force component commands to reduce uncertainties concerning the
enemy, environment, time, and terrain. Intelligence preparation of the battlespace supports
the individual operations of the joint force component commands. Also called IPB. See
also joint intelligence preparation of the operational environment. (JP 2-01.3)
intelligence process — The process by which information is converted into intelligence and
made available to users. The process consists of six interrelated intelligence operations:
planning and direction, collection, processing and exploitation, analysis and production,
dissemination and integration, and evaluation and feedback. See also analysis and
production; collection; dissemination and integration; evaluation and feedback;
intelligence; planning and direction; processing and exploitation. (JP 2-01)
intelligence-related activities — Those activities outside the consolidated defense
intelligence program that: respond to operational commanders’ tasking for
time-sensitive information on foreign entities; respond to national intelligence
community tasking of systems whose primary mission is support to operating forces;
train personnel for intelligence duties; provide an intelligence reserve; or are devoted to
research and development of intelligence or related capabilities. (Specifically excluded
are programs that are so closely integrated with a weapon system that their primary
function is to provide immediate-use targeting data.) (JP 2-01)
intelligence report — A specific report of information, usually on a single item, made at
any level of command in tactical operations and disseminated as rapidly as possible in
keeping with the timeliness of the information. Also called INTREP.
intelligence reporting — The preparation and conveyance of information by any means.
More commonly, the term is restricted to reports as they are prepared by the collector and
as they are transmitted by the collector to the latter’s headquarters and by this component
of the intelligence structure to one or more intelligence-producing components. Thus,
even in this limited sense, reporting embraces both collection and dissemination. The
term is applied to normal and specialist intelligence reports. (JP 2-01.2)
intelligence requirement — 1. Any subject, general or specific, upon which there is a need
for the collection of information, or the production of intelligence. 2. A requirement
for intelligence to fill a gap in the command’s knowledge or understanding of the
operational environment or threat forces. See also intelligence; priority intelligence
requirement. (JP 2-0)
