{{Important|When the country structure is established, it is not possible to add intermediate levels within the country structure, so careful thought must be given to correctly establishing the country structure prior to entering data.}}
{{note| To add, change, or remove country structure levels, you must have the Country Structure Mgmt permission.
* For ease of access, it is recommended to associate {{IMSMANG}} locations with one level in the country structure, normally the lowest level such as town or village.
* Setting the preferred map extent for each area allows users to zoom and centre the map automatically on the area from the main navigation window.
* Adding alternative names for areas lets users incorporate official and unofficial names for areas as well as internationally recognized PCodes.}}
{{HowTo's
IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> provides the ability to track information about organisations participating in mine action. Organisations can be categorized by type and assigned “work areas” based on the country structure. To display organisations on the map, users can provide geospatial data for each organisation.
Additionally, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> supports the creation of parent-child relationships with organisations so that information managers can create hierarchies of organisations. For example, a mine clearance organisation may be responsible for several clearance teams within a country. As shown in the figure below, this relationship can be mapped by creating one organisation for the mine clearance organisation (NGO1) and one organisation for each team (TeamA, TeamB and TeamC), then specifying the parent organisation of each team as NGO1.

As with other IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> data, places can be customised using CDFs and represented on the map by adding geospatial information.
