NGA GPC EXAM 2025 QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Broadcast-Request Imagery Technology Environment (BRITE) - ANS An NSG program that
disseminates NGA GEOINT data via Military Satellite/SIPRNET to communications-limited
tactical users worldwide.
The Combatant Commands (COCOMs) - ANS Promote and enhance security to achieve U.S.
stategic objectives and plan and conduct military operations. They analyze, produce, and
disseminate all-source intelligence and GEOINT to support operations.
Datum - ANS A mathmatical model of Earth used to calculate the coordinates on any map,
chart, or survey system.
The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) - ANS Produces and manages foreign military
intelligence. Provides military intelligence to warfighters, defence policymakers, and force
planners.
Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) - ANS Is a family of systems designed to provide
airborne system-derived, multi-INT discipline, ISR task, post process and use capabilities at the
theater and tactical levels.
Ellipsoid - ANS Refers to the shape of the Earth. Is the shape of the surface created by Mean
Sea Level (MSL).

, Executive Order 12951 - ANS Provides the authority for the release of imagery acquired by
space-based national intelligence reconnaissance systems. It also addressed the fact that only
the DNI has the authority to declassify imagery collected from space.
Exhibiting Consistency of Analysis Over Time - ANS One of the analytical standards of
GEOINT. Analyst can be hindered by limited knowledge of the analyst, poor institutional record
of previous analytic positions, a problem exacerbated by frequent personnel moves and
orginizational changes.
Geographic Information Service (GIS) - ANS A computer-based system that aides in the
collection, maintenance, storage, analysis, output and distribution of spatial data and
information. It is compromised of hardware, software, data, humans and a set of organizational
tools.
GIS Software - ANS Analysis Functions Commonly Provided: Spatial Query, Attribute Query,
Connectivity, Terrain Analysis, Map Algebra, Interpolation, Spatial Data Overlay, Boundary
Dissolve, Buffering, and Proximity & Adjacency.
GEOINT - ANS Is an intelligence dicsipline and a tradecraft that is comprised of three
elements.
The Three Elements of GEOINT - ANS Comprised of Imagery, Imagery Intelligence, and
Geospatial Information.
Imagery - ANS A likeness or presentation of any natural or man-made features or related
activity and the positional data acquired at the same time the likeness or representation was
acquired, including products produced by space-based national intelligence reconnaissance
systems, satellites, airborne platforms, unmanned aerial vehicles, or other similar means (term
does not include handheld or clandestine photography taken by or on behalf of human
intelligence collection organizations).
Imagery Intelligence - ANS The technical, geographic, and intelligence information derived
through the analysis of imagery and collateral materials.
