The concept of transparency stems from a desire to assure other parties that some action such as the dismantlement of a weapons system is taking place while avoiding the intrusiveness, complexity, and lengthy negotiations associated with formal verification measures. By their nature, transparency measures may fall short of providing the degree of confidence associated with arms control treaties, such as INF or START, but can be more quickly and easily implemented. This paper discusses information sources that could form the basis of transparency measures at sensitive facilities.
