FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES CODES AND VALUES:
Item | Item Description | |
FID |
Internal feature number. |
|
Shape |
Feature geometry. |
|
OccurID |
Auto-generated, indexed, unique whole number for occurrence record in Geodatabase representing an invasive exotic plant infestation. |
|
Taxon |
scientific name of species |
|
Eppc |
Rank of taxon by Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council plus notation of state or federal restriction where applicable.
|
|
Lat |
latitude coodinate |
|
Lon |
longitiude coordinate |
|
Datum |
D_North_American_1983_HARN |
|
Density |
Visual ranking of infestation density: Single plant or small clump, scattered plants, scattered dense patches, dominant cover, or dense monoculture. |
|
Habitat |
Natural community invaded by taxon based on 2nd-tier grouping of FNAI-defined communities of Florida. Determined from aerial-photo interpretation, ground surveys, site-manager communications, and/or other available vegetation cover data. |
|
SecHab1 |
A second community type also invaded, to lesser degree, at occurrence location. |
|
SecHab2 |
A third community type invaded to a slight degree at occurrence location. |
|
HabQuality |
A coarse measurement--excellent, good, fair, or poor--of the general ecological quality of the infested natural community, based on the observed level of human-induced disturbances other than presence of exotics (e.g., agricultural activities). |
|
LocDescrip |
Comment-field for additional location descriptors (e.g., "near trail") and/or details on disturbances observed. |
|
AcresInfes |
Required Geodatabase attribute of whole numbers reflecting the number of acres to be worked for control of the infestation. Minimum number is 1 acre, even for "single plant/clump," since surrounding area is expected to be searched for additional target plants during control effort. |
|
PercentSur |
A coarse measure of percent of site subunit surveyed, to indicate surveyor's confidence in having captured true extent of invasives in the area (e.g., a subunit of conservation land). Percent ranges to choose from: <=30%, 31-74%, >=75%. A low percentage range helps identify priority areas for further surveying. |
|
SurveyYr |
Calender year of survey data collection |
|
SurveyMo |
Month of survey data collection, if available |
|
ReportDate |
Date of record entry into GeoDatabase import table |
|
Access_ |
A measure of accessibility, which can be important in estimating control costs. Choices: easy (e.g., by vehicle); medium (e.g., some walk-in); difficult (e.g., remote). |
|
AccessDire |
Optional comment field for noting any special aspects about accessibility, e.g., need boat. |
|
InTretYr |
Year of initial control treatment of infestation |
|
InTretMo |
Month of Initial treatment, if known |
|
County |
County |
|
MA_ID |
Unique identifier for each Managed Area (conservation land/preserve), linked to national NatureServe database and FNAI central database. |
|
MAName |
Name of Managed Area (conservation land or preserve) |
|
Quad |
Reference to topographical quadrangle (e.g., 3205) and Digital Orthographic Quarter Quadrangle (e.g., q3205ne) |
|
Township |
Geological Survey grid line North or South of Tallahassee base line |
|
Range |
Geological Survey grid line West or East of Tallahassee meridian |
|
Section_ |
One of 36 mile-square subunits of a township |
|
ContactNam |
Person to contact for more information on a particular infestation |
|
Reference |
Original source of information for occurrence record (e.g., FNAI survey, site staff report, etc.) |
|
Vchr |
Acronym for herbarium housing voucher specimen for occurrence, if voucher made |
|
DESCRIPT |
FGDL added field based on TAXON |
|
FGDLAQDATE |
FGDL added field based on date of download from source agency. |

A note concerning data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasetsare 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. 1:250000 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 analyses. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References sectionand the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our web pages at: http://www.geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html |
