Building footprint polygons of Mississippi structures. This data was generated from BING raster imagery by Microsoft. MDEQ Office of Geology downloaded and converted the Mississippi file from JSON format to a WGS84 shapefile using Mapshaper software. Next, MDEQ Office of Geology projected the shapefile into MSTM projection. Staff then added attributes : area in square feet, perimeter in feet, and county name. There are around 1,500,000 polygons in this layer. Next an Identity with county borders was run. A few polygons were across county lines. MDEQ made the call on which county to give the business to. MARIS received this shapefile from MDEQ and added metadata. Date on update is July 13,2018. *** MDEQ Office of Geology added elevation attribute in April 2019.
