ABOUT US
...This site and the companion book, "Mississippi Gulf Coast
Shipbuilding Corridor," were commissioned by the Mississippi Gulf
Coast Alliance for Economic Development, a group of economic
development leaders from South Mississippi.

...The information was compiled and written by Tortorano
Commissioned Publications, an independent research firm in Gulf
Breeze, FL.

...The maps were produced using a combination of Google Earth Pro and
satellite images available to the public through the Applied Research and
Technology Project Office at Stennis Space Center, MS
(https://zulu.ssc.nasa.gov/mrsid/mrsid.pl).

...The concept maps were produced using CMap tools developed by the
Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, Pensacola, FL
(http://www.ihmc.us/).
