If you would like to change the existing symbols, you need to use ArcGIS software to update IMSMA.mxd which is located in C:\IMSMAng\server\gis\maps folder. As example Land by Status will be used.
IMSMA layer Land - by Status
- Double-click on the layer or right-click and choose Properties.
- The following window displays.
- Change to Categories – Unique categories many values.
- Follow the syntax for Land markers of the same group.
- Apply the same change to the other layers in the same group.
- Save the IMSMA.mxd and close ArcMap.
- Rename your background mxd. This mxd must not previously been merged/imported into IMSMANG.
- In the IMSMA client (if your configuration is client/server then start the IMSMA client on the server computer) go to File, Import, Map.
- Import the background map which will be merged with the updated IMSMA.mxd.
- Verify in Map Display that the changes are applied.
