The IMSMA Navigation Window immediately displays at the launch of the system.

The IMSMA Navigation Window has three panes: the Country Structure Pane, the Map Pane and the Items Pane. The contents of the Item and the Map pane is controlled by the Country Structure pane. Users can browse the data by clicking in the Item pane or the Map pane.

The Items pane displays approved information. Each item has its own Summary Window that can be opened to browse for linked information and details. Throughout IMSMANG, functions and features display in smaller windows over the IMSMA Navigation window.
