Universal Citation: MS Code of Rules 16-3-9.1
Current through September 24, 2024

MDAH has been working with the Geospatial Group and ITS to develop the Geographic Information System. This application will move the Archaeological and Architectural data that is currently stored on paper maps into a digital media. This will allow us to combine the spatial data that is on the paper maps with the tabular databases such as the Mississippi Landmarks, the National Register, the Mississippi Archaeological Sites File, and the Archaeological Survey Reports to perform complex queries to learn more from our data. The GIS application will also allow us to get our data out to Federal and State Agency faster in cases of natural disasters. It will also allow persons doing Section 106 compliance work to have access to our data online so they do not have to travel to our office to perform their background research on their Section 106 project area.

Because the locations of most of these sites are restricted from public access, we have designed three levels of access to the public. The first is Public Access. From this level a person would be able to find information about Mississippi Landmarks and National Register Properties. The second (Subscriber 1) would have access to see all the data that was in public as well as important rural architectural properties and have the ability to submit properties to the Historic Resource Inventory Database. The third level (Subscriber 2) would have full access to all the data in the GIS both Archaeological and Architectural and have the ability to submit properties to the Historic Resource Inventory Database. Subscriber 1 and Subscriber 2 users will have to be approved by Historic Preservation staff.

Since the GIS application will be housed at ITS, we need a way to offset the monthly fees that ITS is charging MDAH. In order to do this, we recommend adoption of the following annual access fees for those approved to utilize the GIS application:

Subscriber 1: $ 100
Subscriber 2 $ 1,300
