In the tasks facing the armed forces today there is a need for new and improved intelligence analysis tools. The opponents no longer follow strict doctrines that determine their behavior and force-composition. Several different opposing groups must be taken into account, some of which will appear to act friendly towards us. In this paper, we describe a vision for how various information fusion tools can be used to help intelligence analysts and decision-makers achieve situation awareness. We consider intelligence work and propose an analyst-centric toolbox aiming to help analysts involved in the intelligence production process to prepare suitable reports. Intelligence analysts are overwhelmed by information, both in the form of sensory data, text stemming from human observations and other sources. We describe parts of the intelligence process and touch upon the subject of what parts can and cannot be automated. The toolbox is outlined by describing a number of possible tools, e.g., semantic information tagging, a threat model construction assistant, a situation picture construction assistant, social network visualization, a gametheoretic reasoning engine, etc. Some of the tools described have been implemented

Abstract—In this paper, we describe preliminary work on a toolbox aiming to help analysts involved in the intelligence production process. Intelligence analysts are overwhelmed by information, both in the form of sensory data, text stemming from human observations and other sources. In order to make sense of this information and to produce the intelligence reports needed by decision-makers, assisting computer tools are needed. We briefly describe parts of the intelligence process and touch upon the subject of what parts can and cannot be automated. A tool for tagging information semantically that we are currently working on is described, and ideas for two other tools are briefly outlined. I.
