Submit-ready Mississippi site forms
in minutes, not days
Mississippi's SHPO sits within the Mississippi Department of Archives and History (MDAH), which maintains the state's Archaeological Site File. MDAH does not accept a report as final until all new and updated site forms are accepted. FieldTap Report Builder turns the site form into a one-time setup.
Why state forms break every other tool
Every state has its own paper site form. Mississippi's is Mississippi site forms — a fixed PDF layout MDAH expects to receive exactly as published. Generic field tools give you two bad options: rebuild the form by hand in their form builder (and still retype results into the official PDF), or pay for a professional services engagement to digitize each form.
Either way, every revision the agency publishes restarts the cycle. CRM firms end up paying for software and still doing the typing.
Import once. Map once. Done forever.
Report Builder is the only feature on the market that lets a CRM firm digitize a state's official PDF form themselves — no professional-services bill, no rebuilding the form by hand. Map the fields once and every record auto-exports a submit-ready MDAH PDF for the life of your firm.

What MDAH reviewers expect
- MDAH does not accept a report as final until all new and updated site forms have been accepted — FieldTap keeps records export-ready and consistent throughout a project.
- A site number is issued by the Site File registrar; FieldTap supports placeholder numbers swapped on export.
- Coordinates must agree across the form, map, and any GIS deliverable — FieldTap generates all three from one record.
- Section 106 review under the NHPA drives most Mississippi CRM fieldwork; consistent records reduce revision cycles.
Mississippi SHPO FAQ
Does FieldTap export site forms ready for MDAH?
Yes. You map the site form once and every record exports a fully populated PDF, ready to submit — no retyping.
Does FieldTap handle site numbering?
Yes. Crews record with placeholder numbers; once MDAH issues the site number you update the record and exports refresh.
Does this work offline?
Yes. Recording, GPS, and photos run fully offline. Sync and export require connectivity.
Can we map our own Mississippi form variant?
Yes. Report Builder accepts any PDF, including internal QA forms.
What about GIS deliverables?
Shapefile, GeoJSON, and CSV come from the same record as the PDF, so coordinates and attributes always agree.
