The date FGDL aquired the data from the source. |
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data. |
This dataset is a combination of geocoded cemetery addresses from several online sources and centroids from the new SHPO Cemeteries shapefile. |
A note concerning data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasetsare not suitable for some project, analysis, or modelling 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 |

Process Steps for Office Of Financial Regulation Information: -Searched for cemetery addresses in Office Of Financial Regulation http://www.dbf.state.fl.us/licensing/licensing-d.html http://www.dbf.state.fl.us/licensing/download.html -Selected cemetery addresses under following categories: Funeral and Cemetery Program Lists Funeral and Cemetery License Codes http://www.dbf.state.fl.us/licensing/funcemlist.html -Ch. 497 Licensees (109 KB) Chapter 497 businesses including Cemeteries, Exempt Cemeteries, Certificates of Authority and branch offices, Monument Establishments and Brokers of Burial Rights -Downloaded cemetery information. Process Steps for Yellow Pages FL Cemetery Locations: -Searched for cemetery addresses in http://www.yellowpages.com -Downloaded cemetery information Selected cemetery addresses under following categories: Pets & Vets Pet Services - Pet Cemeteries (41) Real Estate Land Subdividers & Developers - Cemeteries (321) Process Steps for D'ADDEZIO.com Information: -Searched for cemetery addresses in D'ADDEZIO.com -Selected cemetery addresses under following categories: Florida Cemeteries http://www.daddezio.com/cemetery/junction/CJ-FL-NDX.html -Downloaded cemetery information. -All addresses from sections above were copied and pasted into a text file, which was then formatted so that it could be imported into Excel and converted to a database file format. -The addresses were geocoded against ARC Logistics Route GDT Roads Shapefile created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps for State Historic Preservation Office Information: -SHPO Cemetery information was gathered from cetroids taken from the latest SHIPO Cemeteries shapefile: -Historic Cemeteries Gis Data Layer Florida Division Of Historical Resources October 2005 -This dataset contains historic cemetery boundaries and basic cemetery attributes as recorded at the Florida Master Site File. -A shapefile was created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps for Cemetery Transcription Library Information: -Searched for cemetery addresses in Cemetery Transcription Library -Selected cemetery addresses under following categories: http://www.interment.net/us/fl/ -Downloaded cemetery information from different counties. -This information was then mapped using the Cemetery's Latitude and Longitude Coordinates and a shapefile created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps For St Johns County Cemetery Information: -Data was acquired through the County GIS Department. -A shapefile was created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps For Marion County Cemetery Information: -Data was acquired through the County GIS Department. -A shapefile was created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps For Orange County Cemetery Information: -Data was acquired through the County GIS Department. -A shapefile was created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection Process Steps For Lake County Cemetery Information: -Data was acquired through the County GIS Department. -A shapefile was created using FGDL Albers HPGN map projection -All the above data was given a new field call SOURCE and the Source field was calculated based on the source of the original information. -The all datasets except the SHPO Data, where then combined together and unnecessary fields were deleted. -Duplicates Spatial Fields were removed using an ArcView Extension: "Remove Spatial Duplicates" -This shapefile along with the one containing the SHPO Data were loaded into ArcMap, duplicates occurring between the new combined shapefile and the SHPO dataset where removed from the combined dataset visually. -The two datasets where then merged together and the shapefile was created using the FGDL Albers HPGN map projection -This update consists of changes made to Volusia County, Florida in 2005. The old geocoded data was removed from the statewide layer and the newly acquired data was appended. The AUTOID was calculated for records containing no old AUTOID number Process Steps for Super Pages FL Cemetery Locations: -Searched for cemetery addresses in http://www.superpages.com Selected cemetery addresses under following categories: # Cemeteries & Memorial Parks * Cemeteries & Crematories (1879) * Mausoleums (12) -Downloaded cemetery information (A1) For Volusia County, FL the 2005 GC_CEMETERY statewide geocoded point data was removed. This data was replaced with more accurate point data received directly from Volusia County and/or a company working with Volusia County in May of 2005. (A5) Some Information from the 2004 geocoded data set was retained; this data was retained for three reasons: 1. The Yellow Pages and Super Pages Online are paid advertising sites, some facilities may wish to discontinue their advertising with those companies but they may still exist at that address/location (i.e. Churches etc). 2. The address might have changed slightly (i.e. suite number, building number, or zip code) which may have affected the addresses ability to be geocoded with the 2005 GDT roads dataset. 3. The facility no longer exists. Because facilities in reasons one and two may still exist in the real world all the 2004 geocoded features that were not reproduced in the 2005 geocode update were re-geocoded against the 2005 GDT roads dataset. These facilities were then added to the 2005 geocoded dataset. Facilities that are part of this scenario are represented with a value of 'NIN' (Not In New) in the field called FLAG. -Socio-Cultural Effect data fields and definitions were added. FLAG, UPDATE_DAY, AUTOID, NAME, ADDRESS, CITY, ZIPCODE, OPERATING, OP_CLASS, TYPE, YEAR, FGDLAQDATE -For facilities that previously existed the permanent auto identification number [auto id] was carried over from the 2004 SCE base data to the 2005 SCE updates. For new facilities autoids were created. -Total records = 1443 Process Date: 20050901 |
