7. Simulation.
Equipment in positions also may be simulated by digging
shallow outlines in the ground or by painting either on cloth or on the
ground.
The latter method is effective only as a temporary measure since
the lack of height and perceptive will be immediately apparent in stereo-
images or low oblique images.
8. Such deductive processes are made routinely by IAs. Consistent accuracy
in analyzing requires a receptive mind, competency in the IAs area of
responsibility, and close attention to image details.
9. Finally, the IA should become very familiar with regional culture in the
area of responsibility, which should preclude any misidentifications, such
as gravesites for weapons positions (Figure 1-38).
