The combination of factors and scenarios during their weights define a scenario in the impact scoring template. You can define an unlimited number of scenarios with different factors and weights to test prioritisation and compare the resulting impact scoresresource allocation process.

Using the Impact Scoring Tool, information managers can select which land factors to evaluate in an analysis. The impact scoring tool allows you has advanced capabilities to limit assess the impact scoring of land on individual locations according to specific country structure areas and time periodsmultiple-factor weighting schemes. You The assessment can customise the scoring ranges be done by using traditional impact factors (recent victims, blocked agriculture, blocked roads, blocked water source, etc) or any other data element from land stored in {{IMSMANG}}. Each factor must be given a weight which are used will enable to group calculate and assign the impact score for each '''[[Location Summary Window | Location''']]. The final output is a list of locations in classifications ranked by impact based on the factors and weightings determined for that denote levels of impactanalysis.

==Work process==__NOEDITSECTION__The IMSMA impact scoring tool computes a score for '''Locations''' to determine how much the Location is affected by the existence of ordnance. The impact scoring tool allows you to select factors—the land, education, and/or victim item attributes—you would like to evaluate. After selecting the factors, you assign weights to each factor. The weight is a numerical value that signifies the importance of the factor relative to other factors, and its effect on the impact score for the Location. The combination of factors and their weights define a '''scenario''' in the impact scoring '''template'''. You can define an unlimited number of scenarios with different factors and weights to test and compare the resulting impact scores.  The impact scoring tool allows you to limit the impact scoring to specific Country Structure nodes and time periods. You can customise the scoring ranges which are used to '''group''' the Locations in classifications that denote levels of impact.  The '''impact score''' of a Location is the sum of the '''factor''' scores. The factor score is calculated by multiplying the '''weight''' of the factor with the point value of the factor. The point value of a factor can be determined in one of two ways. If the factor contains a count, the count is used as the point value. For other factors, a point value of 1 is assigned if the factor tests positive. It is important to note that a point value is only assigned once regardless of how many times the factor tests true for the Location. This process is repeated for all factors in the scenario.  The impact scores can be saved so that you can either view the results at a later time, or recompute the scenario scores using different factor scores, or export the results to a spreadsheet for further analysis.
