Description: Original GIS polygon dataset derived from the 1990 Census Bureau's TIGER files. The original scale of the data is 1:100,000 and covers the entire state of Mississippi. Using coding from the TIGER files, this dataset includes only county boundaries. Selected attributes for U.S. Census STF1B and STF3A for population, economic, and housing data are included. *** Data was last updated in April 2007 using 1:24,000 USGS Digital Raster Graphics. ** Additional edits were made in October 2010 from input from Lamar County E911 Coordinator Freda Rocker**
Description: The TIGER/Line Shapefiles are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the Census MAF/TIGER database. The Census MAF/TIGER database represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts. However, each TIGER/Line Shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set or the shapefiles can be combined to cover the whole nation. *** NOTE ***This data is the Mississippi public school districts as of January 2016. This data was created by the MS Department of Education. The data was last updated to include the consolidation of Drew schools into Sunflower County Schools. **** NOTE *** the 2016 changes reflect 1) consolidation of Indianola and Sunflower County school districts into Sunflower Consolidated 2) Starkville and Oktibbeha County consolidation into Starkville - Oktibbeha Consolidated, and 3) Clay County and West Point merge into West Point Consolidated.

Description: The Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) is a comprehensive aggregated collection of hydrologic unit data consistent with the national criteria for delineation and resolution. It defines the areal extent of surface water drainage to a point except in coastal or lake front areas where there could be multiple outlets as stated by the "Federal Standards and Procedures for the National Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD)" “Standard” (http://pubs.usgs.gov/tm/11/a3/). Watershed boundaries are determined solely upon science-based hydrologic principles, not favoring any administrative boundaries or special projects, nor particular program or agency. This dataset represents the hydrologic unit boundaries to the 12-digit (6th level) for the entire United States. Some areas may also include additional subdivisions representing the 14- and 16-digit hydrologic unit (HU). At a minimum, the HUs are delineated at 1:24,000-scale in the conterminous United States, 1:25,000-scale in Hawaii, Pacific basin and the Caribbean, and 1:63,360-scale in Alaska, meeting the National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). Higher resolution boundaries are being developed where partners and data exist and will be incorporated back into the WBD. WBD data are delivered as a dataset of polygons and corresponding lines that define the boundary of the polygon. WBD polygon attributes include hydrologic unit codes (HUC), size (in the form of acres and square kilometers), name, downstream hydrologic unit code, type of watershed, non-contributing areas, and flow modifications. The HUC describes where the unit is in the country and the level of the unit. WBD line attributes contain the highest level of hydrologic unit for each boundary, line source information and flow modifications.**** NOTE - MARIS Staff created a Mississippi collection from various regions in January 2019 ****

Copyright Text: Funding for the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) was provided by the USDA-NRCS, USGS and EPA along with other federal, state and local agenciesies. Representatives from many agencies contributed a substantial amount of time and salary towards quality review and updating of the dataset in order to meet the WBD Standards. Acknowledgment of the originating agencies would be appreciated in products derived from these data. See dataset specific metadata for further information
