About this ebook
Intelligence Collection 1st Edition by Robert M. Clark systematically covers the three major stages of the collection process: planning (the front end), collection, and processing, exploitation, and dissemination (the back end). It uses a systems analysis methodology to detail the function, process, and structure of various intelligence disciplines. [1, 2]
The book is organized into three core parts with the following topics:
Part I: Literal Collection
This section focuses on intelligence sources where the source items are comprised of words or literal text. [1]
  • Open Source Intelligence (OSINT): Gathering unclassified public data.
  • Human Intelligence (HUMINT): Information gathered from human sources.
  • Communications Intelligence (COMINT): Intercepting text and voice communications.
  • Cyber Collection: Target tracking, hacking, and extracting digital data. [1]
Part II: Nonliteral Collection
This section covers technical intelligence disciplines where data must be processed or interpreted visually and scientifically. [1]
  • Collection Overview: Introduction to sensors and platforms.
  • Imaging Systems: Optical imaging, radar, radiometric, and spectral imaging.
  • Electronic Intelligence (ELINT): Intercepting non-communication electronic signals.
  • Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT): Scientific and technical intelligence data. [1, 2]
Part III: Collection Management
  • United States System: Explores the complexities of how the U.S. manages collection tasks.
  • Cross-INT Collaboration: Synergizing literal and non-literal collection types. [1]
Practical Target Applications
The text applies these methods to real-world target scenarios, including:
  • Battlespace Situational Awareness
  • Counterterrorism Operations
  • Weapons Proliferation Tracking
  • Criminal Network Disruptions
  • Treaty Monitoring & Identity Intelligence [1]
