  troops and materiel around the battlefield in a more efficient and timely manner, thereby maintaining
  operating tempo. This frees military resources the commander needs to continue the offense in other areas.
  INTELLIGENCE
  4-82. The intelligence warfighting function is the related tasks and systems that facilitate understanding the
  enemy, terrain, weather, civil considerations, and other significant aspects of the operational environment
  (ADP 3-0). Other significant aspects of an OE include threats, adversaries, and operational variables, which
  vary with the nature of operations. The intelligence warfighting function synchronizes information collection
  with the primary tactical tasks of reconnaissance, surveillance, security, and intelligence operations.
  Intelligence is driven by commanders, and it involves analyzing information from all sources and conducting
  operations to develop the situation. The Army executes intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance
  through operations and intelligence processes, with an emphasis on intelligence analysis and information
  collection. The intelligence warfighting function includes these tasks:
  * Provide intelligence support to force generation.
  * Provide support to situational understanding.
  * Conduct information collection.
  * Provide intelligence support to targeting and IO.
  4-83. Interaction with civil networks across the operational area and area of interest provides commanders with a
  greater understanding of societal factors and allows staffs to create a more detailed map of the interactions of
  friendly and threat actors in the OE. Friendly civil networks provide the commander an exponentially larger
  platform for surveillance and reconnaissance than would otherwise be available. Engagement with civil networks
  also provides the commander with access to civil information coming from areas where the commander might not
  have physical or virtual presence. This understanding empowers commanders with the ability to plan and execute
  greater and more effective operations actions against threat activities. Greater situational understanding of culture
  and civil considerations also identifies the risks to U.S. forces and the overall military campaign in the civil
  component of the OE, thereby ensuring the commander is able to make more timely and informed decisions.
  FIRES
  4-84. The fires warfighting function is the related tasks and systems that create and converge effects in all domains
  against the adversary or enemy to enable operations across the range of military operations (ADP 3-0). These tasks
  and systems create lethal and nonlethal effects delivered from both Army and joint forces, as well as other unified
  action partners. CA forces typically provide effects in the nonlethal realm but also use civil knowledge to enhance
  considerations for the use of lethal actions. Targeting is a function of fires and is greatly enhanced by the integration
  of civil knowledge.
  4-85. Civil information gained through CR, CE, CND, area studies, and other methods is analyzed and
  evaluated and the resulting civil knowledge is integrated into the commander’s targeting process. To enhance
  targeting the CAO staff provide—
  * Options for engagement and effects utilizing CA forces.
  * Identified, developed, and integrated civil networks.
  * Validate survey control points.
  * Enhanced governance capability.
  * Services and recommendations for PRC that protect—
  Civilians.

  Critical infrastructure.
  

  
  Other noncombatants.

  4-86. In consolidation and support areas, CNDE and CMI provide the commander with courses of action to
  create effects in the civil component of the OE which support the commander’s lines of effort, mission, and end
  states. Partner civil networks provide early identification of threats and adversarial actors which might pose a
