Indicators are collected within NAIs or TAIs.

Indicators are collected within NAIs or TAIs.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not applicable
• D. Sometimes

Answer: (A)

Indicators are observable signs used to infer activity, and in the planning process we designate Named Areas of Interest (NAIs) and Targeted Areas of Interest (TAIs) to define where that collection should happen. By focusing gathering on those areas, analysts can detect patterns and changes that matter most for decision‑making, ensuring timely, actionable intelligence. Because of this targeted approach, indicators are collected within NAIs or TAIs. Saying it’s only sometimes true or not applicable doesn’t fit how the planning framework directs collection effort to those defined areas.
