GPC F STUDY 174 QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTION
GEOINT Operations - ANSWER are the tasks, activities, and events to collect,
manage, analyze, generate, visualize, and provide imagery, imagery intelligence,
and geospatial information necessary to support national and defense missions and
international arrangements
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 perform with images of a given NIIRS
rating. The idea is that imagery analysts should be able to perform more demanding
interpretation tasks as the quality of the imagery increases.
The NIIRS consists of 10 levels, from 0 (worst quality) to 9 (best quality).
Because different types of imagery support different types of interpretation tasks,
individual NIIRS has been developed for four major imaging types: Visible, Radar,
Infrared, and Multispectral.
LIMDIS - ANSWER Limited Distribution
Purpose of Intelligence Community Analytic Standards (ICAS) - ANSWER Ensure,
excellence, integrity, and rigor in analysis and work practices
Imagery Analysis - ANSWER Converting information from imagery into intelligence
Photo Processing - ANSWER Electronics, Optical, electro-optical, and chemical are
forms of
