In the IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> information model, items are the containers for mine action information. An item is an area, activity or event that a mine action programme records information about and stores in IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>. There are six categories of items, which are described in the table below. Each category can be characterized by a type that reflects whether the item is designed to track process or activity information or the object or product of an activity.
