Description:

Abstract:

This dataset contains an inventory of outdoor advertising structures, permits and other related information maintained by the Florida Department of Transportation. This dataset is an update to the FL_BILLBOARDS_APR10 FGDL layer. Please Note: The FL_BILLBOARDS_FEB12 layer has 248 fewer features than the FL_BILLBOARDS_APR10 layer.

Purpose:

The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

Supplemental_Information:

The Florida Department of Transportation (Department) is responsible for controlling ODA signs on the National and State highway systems. The Department must control the location, size, height, spacing and lighting of ODA signs but has no authority to regulate the content of advertising messages on the signs. The Outdoor Advertising regulatory program is based on federal law and regulations as well as state statute and rule. Federal law is set forth in the Highway Beautification Act while federal regulations can be found at 23 C.F.R., Section 750. State laws are found in Chapter 479, Florida Statutes. In addition to the state statutes, the Department writes administrative rules to interpret the intent of the statute for the general public. Chapter 14-10, Florida Administrative Code, is the Department's rule chapter which governs outdoor advertising. Local governments often have their own ordinances which regulate outdoor advertising in their community. The Department cannot issue a permit for an outdoor advertising sign which is not allowed by local ordinances.
While there are many aspects of the outdoor advertising regulatory program, this web page deals with pertinent information to help you determine if you need to obtain a license or permit for outdoor advertising signs and the requirements for obtaining and maintaining a license or permit.
Information on ODA licenses, permits and tags is available below. The ODA database, featuring a search option, can be accessed below for current permits, sign locations and other information. If you have questions or need information on this program, contact Rob Jessee (robert.jessee@dot.state.fl.us).
All renewal payments and forms relating to the Outdoor Advertising regulatory program are to be sent to: Outdoor Advertising Office Florida Department of Transportation 605 Suwannee Street, Mail Station 22 Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0450 Phone: (850) 414-4545 Fax: (850) 488-4850

Please note that the conformity status of a sign may change. Although the Department endeavors to update this section of its records as often as possible, there may be reasons why a sign has become nonconforming that are unknown to the Department. Before taking any action on the assumption your sign is conforming, you should check with Department personnel.

Notes: Latitude and longitude are included which allows GIS plotting of the structures statewide or by county. The file is in Excel format and is updated each month.
A single structure may be listed on more than one row in the file. This occurs when a single structure contains more than active permit. In these cases you can determine the distinct structures by the structure# column. The structure# will be the same regardless of how many active permits are attached to the structure.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

GeoPlan Center Downloaded the data from the following Florida Department of Transportations (FDOT) website: <http://www2.dot.state.fl.us/rightofway/DownloadData.aspx>
The Excel spread sheet was downloaded on February 15th, 2012 and it contained data that was last updated on February 1st, 2012.
The original excel document file name was: floutdooradvertising.xls
The floutdooradvertising.xls table was imported into a FileGeodatabase.
Next this table was mapped in ArcMap via the Add XY Data tool.
The XY locations were added via the LATITUDE and LONGITUDE fields.
The dataset's projection was defined as WGS84.
Next the dataset was reprojected to the FGDL NAD83 HARN Albers projection.
Next the Field Names were shortened to fit the Shapefile ten character standard using XTools Pro.
Next a field named URBAN was added and populated where the points intersected the FDOT URBAN layer.
Next the DESCRIPT field was added based on L_NAME (Location Name).
Calculated DESCRIPT = 'NO DESCRIPT AVAILABLE' for 33 records.
Calculated a LTrim on the DESCRIPT field to remove the preceding spaces.
Please Note: The FL_BILLBOARDS_FEB12 layer has 248 fewer features than the FL_BILLBOARDS_APR10 layer.

Resource_Description: DOWNLOADABLE DATA

Distribution_Liability:

The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources) who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.
Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using, modifying, contributing or distributing the materials.
A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>
