The National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) acquires aerial imagery during the agricultural growing seasons in the continental U.S. A primary goal of the NAIP program is to make digital ortho photography available to governmental agencies and the public within a year of acquisition.
NAIP is administered by the USDA's Farm Service Agency (FSA) through the Aerial Photography Field Office in Salt Lake City. This "leaf-on" imagery is used as a base layer for GIS programs in FSA's County Service Centers, and is used to maintain the Common Land Unit (CLU) boundaries.

This category represents the locational information required to define the geographic position of a place or feature. The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) data layer provides the basis for defining public and private property ownership, including parcel mapping and writing of legal descriptions in Mississippi. It is also used extensively for public administration applications by the state, counties, and local school systems. Referencing Systems are precisely defined ground control points or map boundaries that assist in the accurate location of ground features or the particular area defined by a map.

This category represents data collected by the U.S. Bureau of the Census.

This category represents places that proide various services to the public. This includes law enforcement, public safety emergency response, recreational, governmental, and other cultural sites.
