Intelligence can refer to a number of topics:
- intelligence (brain power)
- Intelligence (information gathering) [r]: The practice of finding information on opponents, or potential opponents. [e], the practice of finding information on opponents, or potential opponents.
- Intelligence collection management [r]: Assigning questions to various collection techniques, reflecting the techniques available and the priority of the information need. Includes the process of categorizing information learned for subsequent analysis, and assigning probabilities of accuracy to the raw information [e], in which tasks are assigned to various collection techniques, reflecting the techniques available and the priority of the informationn need
- Processing of collected intelligence information [r]: Add brief definition or description, a process of categorizing information learned for subsequent analysis, and assigning probabilities of accuracy to the raw information
- Human intelligence [r]: Add brief definition or description (HUMINT), the practice of acquiring information through human sources.
- Signals intelligence [r]: the practice of acquiring information through monitoring the electromagnetic signals deliberately trasmitted by an opponent, including communications (COMINT) and non-communications electronics such as radar (ELINT). [e] (SIGINT), the practice of acquiring information through monitoring an opponent communications (COMINT) and non-communications electronics such as radar (ELINT).
- Measurement and signature intelligence [r]: A variety of intelligence gathering disciplines complementary to the technical "mainstream" of imagery intelligence and signals intelligence. [e] (MASINT), the discipline of acquiring information from a source based on observing physical characteristics (e.g., the noise of a tank) that are not the primary purpose of the source, and comparing them to reference measurements (i.e., signatures)
- Imagery intelligence [r]: the practice of taking and interpreting visible and infrared light photographs and video, radar imagery, and other ways to form pictures of subjects of interest [e] (IMINT), the practice of taking and interpreting photographs or other representations of subjects of interest
- Open source intelligence [r]: Obtaining information, to be used in intelligence analysis, from sources available to the public. such as radio and television broadcasts, web sites, books, and similar materials. [e] (OSINT), the technique of researching information about a topic from public sources, such as radio and television broadcasts, web sites, books, and similar materials.
- Intelligence analysis [r]: Add brief definition or description, the discipline of correlating multiple kinds of information and inferring meaning from the set of data available.
- Intelligence dissemination [r]: Add brief definition or description, the process of distributing analyzed information to appropriate consumers.
