Description:

Abstract:

The Florida Invasive Plants shapefile (FNAI - FLInv) is derived from a geodatabase of observed locations for invasive, exotic plant species on public conservation lands in Florida. The exotic species therein are those listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council as being invasive species (see "EPPC" attribute and metadata in FLInv). State (Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services) and federal (United States Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service) rankings are also listed for the EPPC-listed species. Each point identifies at a minimum the species and date that the observation was made. Other factors such as acreage, plant distribution, reference, and eradication efforts taking place at that location are included as available.

Purpose:

Produced from Florida Invasive Plants GeoDatabase to provide a developing statewide view of current invasive exotic plant occurrences in public conservation lands and to establish an inventory and monitoring tool for policy making in natural resource management.

THE DATA INCLUDED IN FGDL ARE 'AS IS' AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS LEGALLY BINDING. 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>
