The Targeting Committee

Scope

The Targeting Committee creates, receives, qualifies, distributes, secures, analyzes, stores and reports remote viewing data for the HRVG.

Purpose

This is an operating instruction that details the actions undertaken by the HRVG Targeting Committee. It is to be used by targeteers, analysts and others to coordinate the operations of the HRVG Targeting Committee.

Targeting Committee Chair

The Targeting Committee Chair (TCC) is appointed by the HRVG Board of Directors and is responsible for the workings of the HRVG Targeting Committee (TC). The TCC establishes procedures to implement the scope of operations outlined above.

• The TCC reports to the HRVG board of directors at board meetings.
• The TC Librarian, Targeteers, and Analysts are under the direction of the TCC.
• The TC is the sole means to submit targets for viewing by the guild.
• The TCC provides the Target IDs used by targeteers to cue targets.
• The TCC assigns targets to be viewed by the guild, except for those generated in a class setting. In this case, the TCC retains quality control and reporting authority only.

Targeting Committee Librarian

The Targeting Committee Librarian (TCL) manages the physical repository of all work created by the guild. The TCL maintains the files of sessions and targets associated with those sessions. All completed work will be turned in to the TCL. All documents in the HRVG files are governed by administrative guidelines set up by the TCL.

Targeteers

The HRVG targeteers are selected from members of Magenta Colts. They are specially trained viewers that qualify targets submitted to the guild and assign target IDs. They provide the pool of targets that are worked by the guild. A Targeteer must pass a specialized training regime and be certified, before performing this task.
Targeteers may be tasked to post targets for general viewing on the HRVG website. Specialized instructions on how to do this will be provided by the HRVG Webmaster or other knowledgeable parties. In this role, the targeteer is responsible for not releasing the identity of a target prior to its release date. A Targeteer’s Checklist of administrative duties is included at the end of this instruction.

The Analysts

The Analyst receives completed session work and evaluates for data congruent with a target. This usually entails comparing, extracting and compiling data from multiple sessions to establish corroboration between viewers. The TCC assigns and directs analysts that perform this role. The Analyst may be a member of a Magenta Colt or specifically selected to analyze data from on a target of interest to the guild. An Analyst must pass a specialized training regime and be certified, before performing this task.

Submission of Targets

The process for HRVG Targets Submission is thoroughly explained on the HRVG website.
The Application Form for target submission can be found there and at the end of this document.
Targeteers will fill out an HRVG Routing Form which will accompany the target packet:

Workflow

The flow of targets into the guild and the sequence of activities leading to a final product are outlined in the flowchart at the end of this document.

Target Qualification

The targets that go in to the target pool will be broken down into four general categories:

Operational targets: These have qualities that distinguish them from general targets by reason of their immediacy, and importance. These would include targets pertaining to current events, or important persons and are primarily investigative in nature.

Validation targets: These are targets for which most or all of the elements are known and are used primarily to train remote viewers.

Low validation targets: These are targets that have little concrete information known about them. These are investigative or speculative in nature and lack the ability to verify the results contained in the remote viewing session.

Experimental targets: These are targets that can have some or all of the qualities of those above, but are primarily used to investigate and further our understanding of Remote Viewing. They are defined more by their use than by their content.

The above types of targets are a continuum. Some targets will share one, some or all of these aspects.

The category that a target falls into determines how it will be viewed and by whom. It also dictates what will be done with the raw data as regards analysis and reporting.

Generally speaking, operational targets will receive analysis and some degree of reporting, depending on the nature of the target and the client’s requirements.

Validation targets (Low and High) are generally not analyzed unless participants take it on themselves to conduct an analysis for their own satisfaction.

The handling of experimental targets will be dictated by the premise of the experiment.

Operational targets are for Magenta Colts and classes or groups of viewers that have advanced to S-4 Cascade.

Validation targets are given to RV students and made available to all viewers for training purposes.

Low validation targets are rarely used due to their speculative nature. Primarily, these would be targets of interest to certain individuals or small groups, who would undertake the work for personal enjoyment.
