| IDisplayAdmin2 (esriDisplay) | Provides access to members that control display administration. |
| IGeoDataset (esriGeoDatabase) | Provides access to members that provide information about a Geographic Dataset. |
| IIdentify | Provides access to members that identify features. |
| IIdentify2 | Provides access to members that set the current scale of the display. |
| IIdentifyGroup | Indicator interface identifying a layer as a top-level group for identify. |
