and tactical levels.
Ellipsoid - ANSWERSRefers to the shape of the Earth. Is the shape of the surface created by Mean Sea
Level (MSL).
Executive Order 12951 - ANSWERSProvides 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 - ANSWERSOne 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) - ANSWERSA 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.

Buffering, and Proximity & Adjacency.
GEOINT - ANSWERSIs an intelligence dicsipline and a tradecraft that is comprised of three elements.
The Three Elements of GEOINT - ANSWERSComprised of Imagery, Imagery Intelligence, and Geospatial
Information.
Imagery - ANSWERSA 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 - ANSWERSThe technical, geographic, and intelligence information derived through
the analysis of imagery and collateral materials.
Geospatial Information - ANSWERSInformation identifying the geographic location and characteristics of
natural or constructed features and boundaries on the earth, including: statistical data, mapping,
charting, geodetic data, and other data.
GEOINT Committee (GEOCOM) - ANSWERSNSG Committee that serves as an advisory body to the
GEOINT Funtional Manager.
GEOINT Information Management System (GIMS) - ANSWERSProvides the national and DOD imagery
communities with a uniform automated collection management system for national platforms.
GEOINT Standards - ANSWERSStandards are the essential elements that will enable integrated and
interoperable GEOINT capabilities within the larger national security environment.
