Note.jpg The .mxd of the map file and corresponding shapefiles should be located on a local drive on your computer. The .mxd should have a unique name and have never been imported into IMSMANG before. Recommended size of the file should not exceed 2 GB. If you would need a clean background map then you may download it from Downloads.

To import a base map into IMSMANG:

  1. In the File menu → ImportMap.
    Import menu.png
  2. Map import.png
  3. Navigate to the location of the .mxd file that you would like to import.
  4. Select the .mxd file.
  5. Click the Import button.
  6. A message stating that the Map Import Successfully Completed displays.
    Map import confirm.png


Map import error.png

Error message at map import

Note.jpg IMSMANG may only import mxd files that are created in 10.1 format. In ArcGIS Desktop use Save a copy and choose ArcMap 10.1. and ArcMap 10.2 format.
