In practice, the value of UN intelligence vary a lot. This mainly because the military personal working as G2 is not always trained as intelligence or because they follow orders from their national command. Or they do not speak the local language. Actually, where I am working, one of the G2 cell member is a nurse who does not speak local language...
That gives you an idea of the quality of info collected and analysed.
Also, it depends on the mandate. As exemple, the DRC mission (MONUC) had a mandate to provide tacticle information support.
I believe that DRC could be an interresting case study.
