BASIC INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT EXPLOITATION
Basic Intelligence Support Exploitation is that imagery in-
terpretation effort which is undertaken to provide a flow of
basic image-derived information required by more than one
agency, department, or command. It is a step-by-step process
of extracting and accumulating information from reconnaissance
imagery. Basic Intelligence Support Exploitation involves and
is limited to the derivation of information on each specific
installation, object, activity, or search area examined. It re-
quires the preparation of an authoritative base report which
is augmented by information derived from subsequent First-
and Second-phase reporting and is updated periodically, or
as required by appropriate authority, during Third-Phase Ex-
ploitation. Basic Intelligence Support Exploitation can be
provided as a service of common concern and effectively
programmed against the acquisition of all modes of recon-
naissance imagery.

DIRECT INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT EXPLOITATION -1
Direct Support Exploitation is that imagery interpretation
effort which is undertaken in direct and timely support of
the assigned mission of an agency, department, or command.
It is a dynamic on demand" process in which directly sub-
ordinate imagery interpretation resources must be applied to
meet the spectrum of intelligence needs of a higher authority
which cannot be satisfied by Basic Support Exploitation. Direct
Intelligence Support Exploitation thus is continuously oriented
in support of the mission of an organization, rather than to-
ward providing a flow of basic image-derived information
from the imagery acquired by each successive reconnaissance
mission. It is responsive to the changing needs of the higher
authority being supported and can be effectively programmed
only by that authority.
