===MINT===__NOEDITSECTION__
The Mine Action Intelligence Tool (MINT) is available as of {{IMSMANG}} version 6.0. It is a web-based tool for reporting, data analysis and indicator tracking. As such, it allows users to create and view digital dashboards, perform ad-hoc data analysis online in a very intuitive way, create reports and charts online, and upload reports created in a report designer tool. MINT is available on a web server managed by GICHD. Each organisation/programme/country can however manage its own space, create roles and users, manage data sources and data domains, etc. MINT is the most advanced and complete reporting solution provided for IMSMA. A more detailed description, instructions, how-to pages etc. are available on the [[MINT|MINT pages of this WIKI]].

{{note|
* Database views created in {{IMSMANG}} are backed up by the {{IMSMANG}} backup functionality. However, it is important to correctly set the database permissions on views or it will cause problems when restoring the databases.
* Information managers should maintain separate files containing the view creation scripts so that they can be quickly and easily restored or modified. Using the CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW syntax from SQL is an easy way to build scripts for creating or updating replacing views if they already exist.
