IMSMA themes include items and other data (hospitals, schools, organisations, etc.). Themes that have been recorded with geographic coordinates (reference points, polygons, lines, etc.) can be displayed on the map. Displayed items are represented on the map by standard mine action cartographic symbols. Other data displayed on the map is represented by commonly used symbols for hospitals, schools, organisations, etc..

Layouts help print a map with predefined elements, such as a legend, a north indicator and a scale and/or drawing elements that are helpful for an appropriate understanding of the information displayed on the map. Saved layouts can be opened again. New map layouts can be created through the map layout edit mode tools.

The map menu and the map toolbar offer basic functions that enable you to retrieve additional information from what is displayed on the map.
