processing, integration, analysis, evaluation and interpretation of available information concerning foreign countries or areas. the term is also applied to the activity which results in the product and to the organizations engaged in such activity. Intelligence Annex- A supporting document of an operation plan or order that provides detailed information on the enemy situation, assignment of intelligence tasks, and intelligence administrative procedures.

Specifically, a logical plan for transforming the essential elements of information into orders or requests to sources within a required time limit. Intelligence contingency funds- Appropriated funds to be used for intelligence activities when the use of other funds is not applicable or would either jeopardize or impede the mission of the intelligence unit. Intelligence Cycle- The steps by which information is converted into intelligence and made available to users. There are five steps in the cycle: planning and direction- Determination of intelligence requirements, preparation of a collection plan, issuance of orders and requests to information collection agencies, and a continuous check on the productivity of collection agencies. collection- Acquisition of information and the provision of this information to processing and/or production elements. processing-Conversion of collected information into a form suitable to the production of intelligence. production- Conversion of information into intelligence through the integration, analysis, evaluation, and interpretation of all source data and preparation of intelligence products in support of known or anticipated user requirements. dissemination- Conveyance of intelligence to users in a suitable form. Intelligence Data base- The sum of holdings of intelligence data and finished intelligence products at a given organization. Intelligence data handling systems- Information systems that process and manipulate raw information and intelligence data as required. They are characterized by the application of general purpose computers, peripheral equipment, and automated storage and retrieval equipment for documents and photographs. While automation is a distinguishing characteristic of intelligence data handling systems, individual system components may be either automated or manually operated. Intelligence estimate- The appraisal, expressed in writing or orally, of available intelligence relating to a specific situation or condition with a view to determining the courses of action open to the enemy or potential enemy and the order of probability of their adoption.
