 INSTRUCTIONS TO ANALYSTS
 1. (U) The material you have been given to review has been acquired from a new
 and potentially valuable source of inteil.i.gence.  Work is currently being con-
 ducted on how to improve thb accuracy and rcl_iabil:i t,y of the data.                Your atten-
 tion to the evaluation sheet and your remarks will b, the basis for our assessment
 of this new collection technique.  Therefore, the effort you experxi will greatly
 assist us and will ultimately result in you scceivingg more information of increas-
 ing accuracy and reliabil i.t:.,y.
 2. (U) While formulating your judgumonts concerning the information provided, the
 following comments concerning this new source of i nc, cdli Bence may be helpful.
 Foremost, the information is likely to consist of a mixture of correct and in-
 correct elements.  Specifically:
 a. (S) The descriptive elements are generally of higher reliability than
 ,jLdd  ments or labels as to what is being descrrLFed (recreational swimming pool
 may be mistaken for water purification pools, an aircraft hull. may be mistaken
 for a submarine hull, etc.).  Therefcre, seemingly appropriate descriptive elements
 should not. be rejected because of nLu-:i.abeling.
 b. (S) The data often contains gaps (in a ?-build.irj complex, for example,
 perhaps only two of the buildings may be described, and an airf.. e.ld may be added
 that isn't there).  Such gaps or additions should not. be t Ren to mean that the
 rest of the data is necessarily inaccurate.
 (S) Therefore, a recommended approach is to first examine the entire information
 packet to obtain an overall flavor of the responsa, 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 vnu have received, or its evaluation
 please contact this office (IAUPS--H--S) at. any time.
