Contents Introduction -- Intelligence preparation of the battlefield: an overview -- Challenges posed by urbanized terrain -- IPB for urban operations step one: define the operating environment -- IPB for urban operations step two: describe the operating environment's effects -- IPB for urban operations step three: identify and evaluate threats and relevant influences -- IPB for urban operations step four: develop non-U.S. courses of action -- Recommendations -- Appendix: Web sites for conducting urban IPB.
Summary Urban operations are highly complex because of the multitudes of people and structures as well as the density of the city?s infrastructure. These same features complicate the intelligence and decisionmaking processes associated with military operations at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels of war. Intelligence preparation of the battlefield (IPB), the Army?s longstanding methodology for incorporating and analyzing relevant information for all types of operations, is currently not effective for tackling the operational and intelligence challenges of urban operations. This study.
