While this information is easily updated during operational use of IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>, it is helpful to establish a baseline of information prior to proceeding with field report template design and data entry. Many IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> users already have a baseline set of information created for each of the auxiliary data types, either through the standard, predefined data available within IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> or by migrating auxiliary data from a previous IMSMA version. Auxiliary data can also be augmented by creating CDFs to track additional information.

===Explosive Ordnance===The final type of auxiliary data available in IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> is explosive ordnance. This data is used to represent the various kinds of explosive ordnance found or cleared from hazards lands or that are causing accidents. IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> includes more than 5,000 predefined ordnance types with the ability to create additional ordnance required for a mine action programme.

All explosive ordnance is grouped according to categories and subcategories, which allows for detailed categorization of each device. For example, an explosive device may have a category of “Landmine” and a subcategory of “Antipersonnel.” In this way, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> provides the ability not only to search and report on types of ordnance but also on the specific characteristics of ordnance. This allows queries such as “how many landmines or bombs were cleared in a specific period?” or “how many anti-personnel mines were found?”
Furthermore, programmes can limit which ordnance can be used within the system by making individual devices active or inactive. This facilitates rapid data entry by making available only the devices that are found locally to a programme.
