(U) The material you have been given to review has been acquired from a new and potentially valuable source of intelligence. Work is currently being con- ducted on how to improve the accuracy and reliability of the data. Your atten- tion to the evaluation sheet and your remarks will be the basis for our assessment of this new collection technique. Therefore, the effort you expend will greatly assist us and will ultimately result in you receiving more information of incroas- ing accuracy and reliability. 2. (U) While formulating your judgements concerning the information provided, the following comments concerning this new source of intelligence may be helpful. Foremost, the information is likely to consist of a mixture of correct ard in correct elements. Specifically: a. (S) The descriptive elements are generally of higher reliability than judgements or labels as to what is being described (recreational swimming pool mey be mistaken for water purification pools, an aircraft hull may be mistaken for a submarine hull, etc.). Therefore, seemingly appropriate descriptive elements should not be rejected because of mislabeling .. b. (S) The data often contains gaps (in a 3-building complex, for example, perhaps only two of the buildings may be described, and an airfield may be added that isn't there). Such gaps or additions should not be taken to mean that the rest of the data is necessarily inaccurate. 2. (S) Therefore, a recommanded approach is to first examine the entire information packet to obtain an overall flavor of the response, reserving final judgement even in the face of certain errors, and then go back through for a more detailed analysis. 4. (U) If you have questions regarding the data you have received, or its evaluation please contact this office ( IAOPS-H-S) at any time. Approved For Release 2000/08/07 / CIA RDP96-00788R000600890006-4
