This metadata record describes the acquisition and production of 1 foot contours for 5 coastal counties Hancock, Harrison, Jackson, Pearl River and Stone. The breaklines were collected from digital imagery with a 15 cmground sample distance (GSD) for the project area for the 1 foot contour area and 30 cm for the 5 foot contour area. All imagery was acquired in spring 2007 and processed during the spring & summer of 2007. The imagery is from a project tasked by Mississippi Geographic Information, LLC (MGI) with Work Orders ED-9 & ED-9A. EarthData International, Inc. was authorized to undertake this project in accordance with the terms and conditions of the professional service agreement between MGI and EarthData International, Inc., dated February 14, 2007.

These data provide an accurate high-resolution shoreline compiled from imagery of Mississippi Sound, White Harbor to Biloxi Bay, MS . This vector shoreline data is based on an office interpretation of imagery that may be suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. This metadata describes information for both the line and point shapefiles. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog. C-COAST is not a recognized standard, but was influenced by the International Hydrographic Organization's S-57 Object-Attribute standard so the data would be more accurately translated into S-57.

The Mississippi River is North America’s largest river, flowing over 2,300 miles through America’s heartland to the Gulf of Mexico. The watershed not only provides drinking water, food, industry, and recreation for millions of people, it also hosts a globally significant migratory flyway and home for over 325 bird species. Leading the world in agricultural production, a healthy agricultural sector in the Mississippi River Basin is essential for maintaining the nation’s and the world’s food and fiber supply. USDA Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP) cropland models show that conservation on cropland throughout the entire Mississippi River Basin has reduced nitrogen and sediment loading to the Gulf of Mexico by 28 percent and 45 percent, respectively, over what would be lost without conservation systems in place. With the CCA designation, USDA will build on existing strong partnerships in the basin to accelerate conservation in the 13-state area to continue to reduce nutrient and sediment loading to local and regional water bodies and to improve efficiency in using water supplies, particularly in the southern states. The CCA boundary was identified to harness the partnerships and momentum already established by NRCS’s Mississippi River Basin Healthy Watersheds Initiative (MRBI). With more than 600 partners engaged throughout the initiative area, MRBI has treated over 800,000 acres of agricultural land with systems of practices intended to avoid, control, and trap nutrient and sediment run-off and improve irrigation efficiency.
