With this approach, users can collect and store multiple field reports about The '''Summary window''' displays the same updated combined data for an item over time so that the entire history of the item is preserved in the system. The approach also provides a complete audit trail of all changes made to any mine action information so that information managers can answer the questionThis includes Data Entry Forms, geospatial data, associated attachments, "What did we know and when did we know it?"related item records.
IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> also provides a constantly updated current view of There are several different ways to open the Summary windows:* Double-click the item which represents row from the sum of information about IMSMA Navigation window’s items pane. * Select the item at any given time. As subsequent information is collected about symbol in the [[Map Pane]] so that a specific attribute of an item, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> updates blue circle displays on the item’s current view on an attribute-by-attribute basissymbol. For example, Field Report #1 collects some initial information about a hazard. It sets Once the priority to "Medium" and specifies that blue circle is displayed on the hazard contains AP mines and is 25symbol,000 sqm. Field Report #2 updates information about double-click the symbol in the hazard after a subsequent assessmentMap Pane.

The attributes displayed in the Summary window for each item are possible to be [[Summary Templates | customised]]. The Summary windows consists of different areas:

Current view calculations are based on the date of the field report, so it is possible to enter data into the system out of chronological order (that is, to collect past information about an item) without disrupting the current view. For example, if a fourth field report were collected and dated between Field Report #1 and Field Report #2, it would have no effect on the current view as all information in the example was updated with Field Report #2 or later. ==Current View Windows=={{Note | style="border:2px solid lightgray; margin:10px;"|align="left" style="padding: 5px 10px 5px 10px"| All users will have permission to view the current view windows.|}The current view windows display the most recent set of attribute data for an item.

=== Data area - Geospatial tab===__NOEDITSECTION__
The Geographical data widget which is used in both Data Entry Forms and Summary windows is possible to customise. It is possible to show the coordinates in two different formats:
* latitude/longitude a.k.a. storage format
* the coordinate system and format the user used when entering the data.
[[Image:SummaryWindow Geo.png|700px|center]]
<div align="center">
'' Example of the '''same''' point entered with 4 different coordinate system''
</div>
In this example the user used
* WGS 1984 Decimal degrees for Point 1
* WGS 1984 Degrees minutes seconds for Point 2
* UTM for Point 3
* MRGS for Point 4
* Distance/Bearing for Point 5
The X and Y values that the user entered for Point 1 - 3 are shown in the two columns; ''X / Lon'' and ''Y / Lat''.<br/>
When distance/bearing is used the column ''From'' shows from which point they were measured.<br/>
The two columns ''X / Longitude'' and ''Y / Latitude'' shows the calculated latitude/longitude.<br/>
When {{IMSMANG}} shows the items in the Map pane the calculated latitude/longitude are used.
{{Note | When to use the different Point Types is described [[Point Types | '''here''']].}}
