Core elements of IMSMA include a <abbr title="Open source object-relational database management system">PostgreSQL</abbr> database engine and a geographic information system (GIS) for displaying information on maps. Its [[Data Entry UserUnderstanding Configuration Options| client/server architecture]]*enables stand-alone installations for small [[System Administrator]http://www.mineaction.org/ mine action programmes]*as well as client/server installations for large programmes with many users distributed across multiple sites and organisations. Additionally, IMSMA can be connected to supporting components that interact with the IMSMA system. This includes the [[Information ManagerIMSMA Staging Area]]*for advanced analytics and reporting as well more common tools like [[Operations User]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel Microsoft Excel].
==IMSMA Administration==*[[Field ReportsCore Design Concepts|Designed with ''flexibility'' and ''usability'']]*at heart, IMSMA is [[Admin Guide TestPortal:IMSMA_NG_Administration#Customisation|very adaptable and can be continuously customised]]by individual programmes to suit their changing information management needs. This includes defining the type of mine action data to store and the relationships among the types, the forms used to collect information in the field and the workflows - such as for instance [http://www.gichd.org/operations/land-release-and-operational-efficiency/overview/ land release]. Significant attention should be paid when setting up and customising IMSMA to make sure that it is adapted to the needs of all staff and external stakeholders. |-| style="padding:2px;" | <h2 id="mp-dyk-h2" id="mf-nec" style="margin:3px; background:#c14e5f; font-size:120%; font-weight:bold; text-align:left; color:#fff; padding:0.2em 0.4em;">Did you know...</h2>|-| style="color:#000; padding:2px 5px 5px;" | <div id="mp-dyk" id="mf-nec">First released in 1998, IMSMA is now the primary softwarein mine action and is installed in '''47''' countries. IMSMA includes built-in flexibility to support a variety of information management needs, ranging from the largest humanitarian programs in the world to the smallest. IMSMA provides humanitarian organisations and planners with the necessary information to enhance project efficiency and maximize the value of limited resources.</div>|}| style="border:1px solid transparent;" |
