Data search can be achieved by running saved searches, using item filters or the search engine.

An item filter (hazard, hazard reduction, accident, etc.) returns a list of all corresponding items that were entered in IMSMANG. The results list can be sorted out by paring down the filter criteria or by picking other column headings.

The search engine allows for search definitions that correspond to more than one criterion and/or criteria node(s). Search definitions can have linked items (hazard reductions linked to a hazard, victims linked to an accident, etc.). A criterion can be defined by paring down its attributes, operators and values.

Searches defined with the search engine can be saved in the search manager.
