Abstract:
This dataset contains 2015 cemetery location information for the State of Florida. It is a combination of cemeteries and other types of burial ground locations from approximately 24 different data sources including; Florida counties, parcel centroids, the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (GNIS), Florida Division of Historical Resources (SHPO) cemetery centroids, SuperPage cemetery address locations, and more. This dataset contains fields denoting the location, and other information for cemeteries located in Florida. This data is meant to be used for planning purposes only and is not intended to represent a 100% inventory of cemeteries in Florida. Cemetery locations that have been verified are marked with the letter V in the FLAG field. This layer is an update of the previously released FGDL layer GC_CEMETERY_MAR13.shp
Purpose:
The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

What is Geocoding? Geocoding is term used to describe the act of address matching. Geocoding is the process of finding a geographic location (x, y point) for an address (such as street number and name, city, state, and ZIP Code) on a map. Geocoding is based off the typical address scheme for the US, in which one side of the street contains even house numbers while the other side of the street contains odd house numbers.
The geocoding process uses an algorithm to find the geographic location of addresses. First, a street segment is identified using the zip code and street name. Next, the geographic location of the address is matched using the building number to determine how far down the street and on which side of the street the building is located. Geocoding Accuracy
The locational accuracy of geocoded addresses may vary from urban to rural areas due to the algorithm used to generate the geographic locations of addresses. The algorithm assumes that the size of parcels are equivalent along a road route. This assumption tends to be more consistent in urban areas, where the size of parcels vary less than in rural areas. Consequently, the results of geocoded addresses in urban areas are usually more reliable than those in rural areas.
For example, the locational accuracy of rural addresses can be slightly off because some parcels along a rural route may be 15 acres while others may be 2.5 acres, but the geocoding algorithm assumes that the addresses are distributed evenly along the route.

Process_Description:
The GeoPlan Center performed the following steps in order to create the 2008 statewide cemetery data layer.
17 Different Sources Comprise the Cemetery Dataset.
The following Sources were either reprojected to the FGDL Albers NAD83 HPGN map projection or if no spatial data existed they were geocoded to a statewide 2007 TeleAtlas Streets dataset. For downloaded county and district wide polygon layers the label points were created and then used for each facility.
Once the point sources were created via geocoding or reprojected existing point data they were merged into one statewide layer.
Record (facility) duplications were removed by manually viewing and editing the statewide layer's attribute table for each of the 67 counties. Where record duplication existed source information of previously corrected FDOT Districts and Regional Planning Council data took preference followed by, County data, and finally geocoded data.
Below are the data Sources as described in the Source field in the attribute table.
Next GeoPlan Center performed the following attribute table adjustments.
-Upper cased all records. -Added DESCRIPT field based on NAME -Socio-Cultural Effect data fields and definitions were added. FLAG, UPDATE_DAY, AUTOID, NAME, ADDRESS, CITY, ZIPCODE, OPERATING, OP_CLASS, SERVICES, COMMON_USE USE, YR_BUILT, FGDLAQDATE.

Process_Description:
GeoPlan reviewed and updated the GC_CEMETERY_SEP08 layer. Each existing feature was inspected using aerials and Google earth/street view to confirm their existence. Features that were deemed outdated or inaccurate, were removed from the dataset. Many features were spatially adjusted or their attributes were updated based on the latest data. The most updated shapefiles from GNIS, SHPO, Parcels as well as Orange, St. Johns, Seminole, and Putnam Counties were inspected to determine additional features to be added to the dataset. In addition, the State of Florida's Funeral, Cemetery & Consumer Services provided an Excel table representing registered cemeteries in the State of Florida which was geocoded and inspected to determined additional features to be added. In total, 244 features were removed and 197 were added from various sources from the previous version. The following files were used in the update.
-SHPO_CEMETERIES_JUL11 -GNIS_AUG11 -CEMList(7-25-11).XSL (Spreadsheet sent by Lashonda Morris of the State of Florida's Funeral, Cemetery & Consumer Services on 11/3/2011) -Putnam County Cemetery Shapefile downloaded from <http://www.putnam-fl.com/GIS/> gis_downloads.php on 11/14/2011. -St Johns County Cemetery Shapefile downloaded from <http://www.sjcfl.us/GIS/DataDepot.aspx> on 11/14/2011 -Seminole County Cemetery Shapefile downloaded from <http://www.seminolecountyfl.gov/cs/gis/> layerbib2_cms.asp on 11/14/2011. -Orange County Cemetery Shapefile
After updating the cemetery shapefile, the USNG_FL_1K, LAT_DD, LONG_DD, PARCELNO, ACRES, and AYRBLT were recalculated to account for any spatial changes during the update. The "ADDRESS" field was updated with parcel data where available for features without any prior address information.

Process_Description:
GeoPlan reviewed and updated the GC_CEMETERY_NOV11 layer as as part of the development of the GC_CEMETERYBND_AUG12 layer. As part of this update, each feature was assigned a unique GeoPlan ID (GCID). Each existing feature was inspected using aerials and Google earth/street view to confirm their existence. Features that were deemed outdated or inaccurate, were removed from the dataset. Some were spatially adjusted based on the latest data. The most updated shapefiles from GNIS and SHPO were inspected to determine additional features to be added to the dataset. In total, 22 features were removed and 3 were added. Of the remaining 2630 features, 2114 were visually verified. The following files were used in the update.
-SHPO_CEMETERIES_JAN12 -GNIS_AUG12
Once a point was moved to the proper location, the corresponding parcel(s) were extracted from the 2010 statewide parcel geodatabase (GC_CEMETERYBND_AUG12). These parcels were assigned the same GeoPlan ID given to the cemetery's point. Appropriate attributes were extracted from the parcel database and added to the cemetery point layer. Additional attributes were added to capture information pertaining to the cemetery's accompanying parcel including COMMON_USE, USE, and LINK. If a cemetery point is associated with more than one parcel, the information from the parcel deemed primary was used to calculate the fields. These variables as well as ADDRESS, ACRES, and, AYRBLT were updated using the information in the GC_CEMETERYBND_AUG12 layer. The USNG_FL_1K, LAT_DD, LONG_DD were also recalculated to account for any spatial changes during the update.

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>
