Quite a few scientific expeditions go beyond the stated goal(s). I know many archaeological surveys in the days before satellite photography looked at terrain, man-made structures, and infrastructure in general (roads, communications, power, etc.)

During my career in special communications I read many HUMINT (human intelligence) reports with data
gleaned from international sporting events, especially military-related ones. Of course port visits by U.S. warships gather much information.

Quite a few scientific expeditions were inspired by a perceived need to spy. I have read that many archaeological expeditions went beyond surveying dig sites or surface exploration.

I vaguely recall a book or two that has dealt with this subject. Anyone know the book titles?

Happy Birthday Sir Edmund! I’ve always been a bit of a fan. 88 is some achievement.
