2006 Two Foot County

The MS Coordinating Council for Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (MCCRSGIS) has developed statewide coverage of natural color digital ortho-imagery. This ortho-imagery is composed of 24 bit natural color digital orthos at a scale of 1 to 400 with a 2 foot ground sample distance (GSD) for the project area. The SID images were created using a 20:1 compression ratio.

The acquisition and production of natural color digital orthoimagery is delivered by county. The imagery may be used for cadastral or infrastructure mapping purposes.
