ACCURATE)
Visual clue categories of image analysis - ANSWERSSize, shape, shadow, tone, texture, pattern, location,
and association
Imagery analysis processes - ANSWERSDetection, identification, and evaluation
Geodesy (definition) - ANSWERSThe science of mathematically determining the size, shape, and
orientation of the Earth, and the nature of its gravity field in four dimensions (in space over time).
Seven categories of GEOINT products (both standard and specialized): - ANSWERSAeronautical
Nautical/Hydrographic
Topographical/Terrestrial
Precise Positioning & Targeting
Geodesy & Geophysics
Geographic Names
GEOINT Analysis.
,Geospatial Analysis - ANSWERSThe science of extracting meaning from geospatial data and using
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to uncover and investigate relationships and patterns in all forms
of geospatial data to answer intel/military issues.
Three major elements of GEOINT: - ANSWERSImagery
Imagery Intelligence
Geospatial Information
Sensor Phenomenology - ANSWERSThe study and use of sensor technology, literal and non-literal, which
allows discovery, observation, and characterization of natural occurring and measurable occurrences
(spatial, spectral, radiometric and temporal).
Navigation safety and GEOINT - ANSWERSGeospatial data-derived products can determine precise
geographic coordinates and other measurements of objects and features in denied areas more
accurately, rapidly, and effectively than is possible by other means.
Two perspectives of Human Geography: - ANSWERSFoundational Analysis - Characterizing general
patterns of people and groups within the context of their environment
- AND -
Mission Specific Analysis - Addressing specific questions or hypothesis with the goal of answering a
specific intel question
GEOINT Preparation of the Environment (GPE) (process) - ANSWERS1) Define the Environment - Gather
facts needed to outline exact loc.
2) Describe Environment's Influence - Provide descriptive info about area defined in Step 1.
3) Evaluate Threats/Hazards - Add intel/threat data from multiple INTs to step 1/2 layers
4) Develop Analytical Conclusions - Integrate all info from steps 1-3.
Remote Sensing - ANSWERSGathering of information about an object by means of a sensor at some
distance from that object.
Foundational Imagery Processes: - ANSWERSTriangulation
, GEOINT Processing and Exploitation
Imagery Correlation
Orthorectification
Mosaic/Image Stitching
Stereoscopy
Data Science - ANSWERSThe process of extracting knowledge from large volumes of data that are
structured or unstructured, which is a continuation of data mining and predictive analysis.
Imagery - ANSWERSA likeness or presentation of any natural, man-made feature, related object or
activity and the positional data acquired at the same time the likeness or representation was acquired,
including products produced by space-based national ISR systems; and likenesses or presentations
produced by satellites, airborne platforms, UAVs, or similar means.
Imagery Intelligence - ANSWERSThe technical, geographic, and intelligence information derived through
the interpretation or analysis of imagery and collateral materials.
Human Geography - ANSWERSThe study of patterns and processes that shape human interaction with
their environment, with particular attention to the causes and consequences of the spatial distribution
of human activity.
The use of cartography in GEOINT - ANSWERSA map provides information on the existence of, the
location of, and the distance between ground features such as populated places and routes of travel and
communication. It also indicates variations in terrain, heights of natural features, and the extent of
vegetation cover. Mission planning and analysis become more thorough with the addition of
cartographic information.
Global Positioning System (GPS) - ANSWERSThe Global Positioning System is the only fully operational
system that allows users to determine their exact position on or above the Earth
anytime, in any weather, anywhere. The precise locational information provided by the GPS is critical to
safety of navigation for air, land, sea and space.
