Intelligence Preparation of the Battlespace (IPB)
● a continuous and systematic method for analyzing the enemy, weather, and
terrain,● evaluating enemy capabilities and
predicting enemy COAs,● and providing much of the information for
the intel estimate and the targeting process.
IPB Determine enemy COA’s
• Doctrinal template– Identify enemy objectives and desired end-state– Apply effects of terrain and weather
• Situation template (SITTEMP)• Most probable COA (MPCOA)• Most dangerous COA (MDCOA)• Event template
