GPC F UPDATED ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS COMPLETE STUDY
GUIDE
●● What steps does the Geospatial Intelligence Preparation of the
Environment (GPE) accomplish?
Answer: Describe environment influence, evaluate threats and hazards,
define environments, develop analytic conclusions
●● Function of GIS
Answer: The management of Geospatial Information System (GIS) data,
and merging with terrain data
●● What are the basic components of GIS?
Answer: Computer, software, data, and tactics, techniques, procedures
(TTPs)
●● Combatant command (CCMD)
Answer: They have overall responsibility for executing the Unified
Command Plan (UCP) in established Area of Responsibility (AORs)
●● Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)
,Answer: A U.S. agency created to gather secret information about
foreign governments. Responsible to support president, national security
council, and those personnel who make and execute national security
policies.
●● National Reconnaissance Office (NRO)
Answer: The National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) is responsible for
research and development, acquisition, launch, deployment, and
operation of overhead systems and related data processing facilities to
collect intelligence and information to support national and departmental
missions and other USG needs. NRO activities provide support to I&W,
monitoring arms control agreements, access to denied areas, and the
planning and execution of military operations. They design, build, and
operate satellites as primary source of GEOINT collected.
●● Electro-optical Sensor
Answer: Shows visible parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, and is
limited by weather.
●● National Security Agency (NSA)
Answer: Responsible for information assurance and collects foreign
signals
●● GEOINT tasking process
Answer: TCPED
,Tasking
Collection
Processing
Exploitation
Dissemination
●● National System for Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NSG)
Answer: Develops standardized, Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures
(TTPs) for GEOINT personnel
●● National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
Answer: Directs GEOINT support to planners, warfighter, and
policymakers.
●● National Security Agency (NSA)
Answer: Uses GEOINT by gaining greater understanding of SIGINT by
including geospatial associations
●● Aeronautical
Answer: Products for air navigation, pilotage, and planning air
operations
●● Imagery Science
, Answer: The technical application of remote sensor data for GEOINT
●● Source Analysis
Answer: The managing of partnerships and assets to answer questions
●● GPE
Answer: Used for development of predictive GEOINT
●● Risk Sensitive (RSEN)
Answer: an NGA caveat used to protect especially sensitive imaging
capabilities and exploitation techniques.
●● Sourcing and Citations
Answer: Used as justification for your analysis
●● Point Target
Answer: A GEOINT target type that will provide the best NIIRS
●● NIIRS
Answer: The National Imagery Interpretability Rating Scale (NIIRS) is a
subjective scale used for rating the quality of imagery acquired from
various types of imaging systems. The NIIRS defines different levels of
image quality/interpretability based on the types of tasks an analyst can
