The Country Structure represents a gazetteer, the political or administrative divisions within a country. In {{IMSMANG}}, the Country Structure allows a Mine Action Programme to link Mine Action information to areas and report statistics such as number of victims per province or district. Ideally, a Mine Action Programme uses an official, countrywide Country Structure that ensures mine action information is compatible with other national datasets.
Ideally, the Country Structure in {{IMSMANG}}, covers all levels of the existing Country Structure, from the country level down to a level that can be represented with a single point such as a town or village. If a Mine Action Programme has special levels such as Areas of Responsibility that do not exists exist in the Country Structure, artificial levels may be inserted into the Country Structure in {{IMSMANG}}.
To display a Country Structure node like a town or village on the map, it is necessary to add a geographic coordinate for the node.
