- Abstract:
-
This dataset represents the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's five regional districts.
- Purpose:
-
This data set visually represents the five FWC regional boundaries.
- 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.

-
GeoPlan received the data in September 2010 from the Florida Fish
and Wildlife Conservation Commission via CD-ROM. The data was
projected in the North American Datum of 1983.
- Reprojected to FGDL Albers HPGN Projection.
- Renamed the dataset from FWC_districts_fl_poly to FWCREG_2003
- Removed SHAPE.AREA and SHAPE.LEN fields.
- Added FGDLAQDATE based on date GeoPlan acquired the data.
- Added a DESCRIPT field based on Region.

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:
