The geometry of the global heliosphere is a topic of much conjecture. The emergence of 3D MHD simulations has helped to realize some of the possible configurations, but at the same time has raised many questions regarding the appropriate parameters and model assumptions. In this talk we will present a number of ENA maps calculated using a Monte-Carlo neutral atom code and a 3D MHD-neutral code. We will focus on identifying signatures within the skymaps related to specific details of the 3D heliospheric structure, as well as estimating the flux of ENA's at various energies. Both of these will be critical to understanding the nature of the heliosphere implied by the upcoming IBEX mission.
