- Abstract:
-
This GIS data set represents the Wildlife Management Areas administered by the
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), and other associated
public use areas. These data are intended as a general reference map only. More
information on activities permitted in individual areas can be found from the links on
FWC's Web site: <http://www.myfwc.com/hunting/wma-brochures>
- Purpose:
-
This GIS data set was created to represent a comprehensive statewide data set of
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Wildlife Management
Areas.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as
the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been
changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida
Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to
ongoing research, new research, and contact information.

- Access_Constraints:
-
These data are unrestricted. Where possible, always acquire this dataset directly
from FWC as other sources may have altered the original data.
- Use_Constraints:
-
Users are encouraged to read and fully comprehend the metadata record prior to
using these data. Please acknowledge the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FWC) as the data source for any products developed from these data.
Users should be aware that comparison with other data sets for the same area may
be inaccurate due to inconsistencies resulting from changes in mapping
conventions, data collection techniques, and computer processes over time. FWC
shall not be liable for improper or incorrect use of these data.
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:

Chassahowitka WMA, Andrews WMA, Bullfrog Creek Mitigation Park WEA,
Crooked Lake WEA, Lake Wales Ridge WEA and Platt Mitigation Park WEA were
created by using DOR parcel data, with exceptions below. Contact the individual
county property appraisers for questions on accuracy of parcel data.
-Bullfrog Creek WMA was created using parcel data, but in the Legal Description it
cites the STR line, but the STR line did not exactly match with parcel data, so
parcel data was used as default.

Wildlife Management Area boundaries were produced by "heads-up" digitizing from
1999 USGS infrared imagery (DOQQ). In specified cases, Florida Natural Areas
Inventory (FNAI) boundaries were used and modified based on the DOQQs. All
boundaries are based on information from PDF maps of the Wildlife Management
Areas from the FWC Web site: <http://myfwc.com/hunting/wma-brochures>.

GeoPlan downloaded this data in shapefile format from the Florida Fish
and Wildlife Conservation Commission-Fish and Wildlife Research Institute
FTP site on June 19, 2015. The data was received as a shapefile in projection:
Albers NAD 83 (PCS_Albers). The dataset was then projected from Albers NAD 83
to FGDL Albers HPGN.
- Reprojected data to FGDL Albers HARN
- Added a DESCRIPT field to attribute table based on NAME
- Added a FGDLAQDATE field based on date received from source
- Renamed shapefile from wildlife_mgt_areas_fl_poly to FWCMAS_MAR15
- Deleted fields SHAPE.LEN and SHAPE.AREA

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'.
