{{Note | You have to specify the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system Coordinate System] and Coordinate Format you would like to use before starting to enter the geospatial data. }} <p>There are several options to enter geospatial data into IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>{{IMSMANG}}:<br />* [[Manual Geospatial Data Entry | Manual Data Entry]]* [[ Draw on the Map to Specify Geographic Coordinates | Drawing on the Map]]* [[Import Geospatial Data from Excel | Importing from Excel spreadsheet ]] * [[Import Geospatial Data from Shapefile | Importing as a shapefile]]
</p>
To enter the geospatial data into IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>{{IMSMANG}}, click on [[File:PencilPencil_for_points.png]]icon on in the data entry formData Entry Form Editor window. <p>The interface to enter geospatial data manually or by drawing on the map consists of two tables: a Points table, and a Polygon and Polyline Points table.</p>

The difference between the columns ''X / Lon & Y / Lat'' and ''X / Longitude & Y / Latitude'' is described [[Summary Window#Data area - Geospatial tab|'''here''']].
After you have entered the polygon/polyline points, {{IMSMANG}} displays the '''total''' calculated area size and line length of the polygons and/or polylines.
==Point types==__NOEDITSECTION__
Which point type should be used depends on:
# if is it a single point;
# if is it a point that is part of a polygon / polyline;
# the type of contamination.
Point types used for recording of areas are of two main types;
* single points;
* part of the polygon.
More information on point types is available '''[[Point Types|here]]'''.
==Poly Property==__NOEDITSECTION__

'' Completion Report with 2 polygons ''
</div>
Poly Property is used for being able to distinguish between polylines and polygons in Map Pane. Example: in a Completion Report (Type of Activity) with Status Completed there are two polygons:
# one cleared with MDD asset
# one cleared with Mechanical asset.

{{New_6.0 | More functions have been added to the Preview window. It amongst other things possible to add labels. It is also possible to change the order of the themes.}}
