All users have access to the IMSMA Navigation window.

After you successfully log into IMSMA, the first window displayed is the IMSMA Navigation window. The IMSMA Navigation window is the main window from which all of IMSMA’s features are accessed. The window contains a menu toolbar, a status bar, and three panes: the country structure pane, map pane, and items pane.

IMSMA Navigation Window Panes

  • The country structure pane is located on the left side of the IMSMA Navigation window. The pane displays a list of the local country structure in a tree format. After you log in, the country structure tree displays the first and second levels of the local country structure.
  • The map pane is located on the right side of the IMSMA Navigation window. Initially, it displays a map view of the highest level of the country structure.
  • The items pane is located at the bottom of the IMSMA Navigation window. The items pane contains tabs that display data about locations, hazards, hazard reductions, accidents, victims, MREs, and QCs. Data will not display in the items pane until you select a country structure from the country structure tree.

In addition to the menu and three panes, the IMSMA Navigation window has a status bar which is located at the bottom of the IMSMA Navigation window below the items pane.
