Or the people who plan non-millitary targets.
Remember the deal when NATO was bombing the hell outta Croatia or wherever and the US accidently hit the Chinese Embassy? Turns out the Chinese Embassy had bought the building from whomever the intended target was. A couple people were killed and the Chinese were pissed. The US had to pay them off and write a big ass check. Had the intel people bought a $.05 map from any downtown street vendor, it would have told them the Chinese had moved in years earlier.
