  • Identify timely intelligence gaps and the leads to fill those gaps.
  • Ensure immediate analytical feedback on collector reports to—
   Post questions directly to a web page to enable all HCTs to answer
  or be cued to the specific request.
   Identify or request clarification on questionable data for quality
  control.
  • Fuse HUMINT information and all-source information as required.
  • Focus collection teams supporting maneuver commanders’
  requirements more effectively.
  • Immediately extract information for crisis reaction.
  13-17. If HCTs use web portals to submit reports directly to theater level,
  they must also send the reports through their OMT for submission to the
  2X. Failure to do so may deny the 2X the ability to deconflict and cross-
  reference reports. HUMINT collectors must ensure that they follow the
  theater-specific methodology for access to the theater web portal.
  DATABASES
  13-18. Without databases, information is difficult or impossible to retrieve
  quickly, especially under adverse conditions. Databases allow access to
  data in a distributed environment and support many complex HUMINT
  functions and requirements, including—
  • Mission deconfliction.
  • RM.
  • RFIs.
  • HUMINT analysis.
  • Summary, report, and assessment preparation.
  • Threat and friendly situation tracking.
  • Targeting.
  13-19. Databases interact with other tools to support predictive analysis,
  prepare graphic analytical products, and provide situational understanding
  down to the HCT. These databases⎯
  • Support time event charts, association matrices, link analysis, and
  other analysis tools.
  • Require a designated systems administrator at each. To ensure a
  high degree of integrity, discrepancies must be verified for accuracy.
  • Allow operators, managers, and analysts to—
   Compartment (protect) source-sensitive operational database
  segments, files, records, and fields.
   Create, update, and maintain databases from locally generated
  information.
   Import complete or partial databases from larger or peer databases.
   Export complete or partial databases to peer or larger databases.
