<title>Intelligence Templating</title>

Abstract

intelligence templating is an analytical tool used to relate enemy activities to terrain and weather. On the rapidly changing modern battlefield, the commander needs more than just raw intelligence - hf needs quick answers. Templating, therefore, is an integral part of the commander's intelligence preparation of the battlefield. Three types of intelligence templating are doctrine, situation and event. A subset of event templating is equipment templating. The focus of this paper is equipment templating.
