When the Mine Action Programme has added values to an enumeration list that is used in Map Display then a symnbol has to be designed and added to the IMSMA.mxd. You need to use [http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/ ArcGIS software] to update IMSMA.mxd which is located in C:\IMSMAng\server\gis\maps folder.
==Steps== __NOEDITSECTION__
As an example, Place by Type theme will be used and in this example a symbol for Office needs to be added to Place Type.
