Item
Item Description
OBJECTID Internal feature number.

STATUS ESRI item which denotes the status of the geocoded address whether it was matched or not).

SCORE ESRI item which denotes the score with which the address was matched to a feature in the reference data.

SIDE ESRI item which denotes the side of the street to which the address was matched (for geocoding service styles that can match an address to a particular side of a street). Records markerd with an "*" have not been GeoCoded, these records have another type of spatial reference source, see source field for more information.

MATCH_ADDR ESRI item which denotes the full street layer address to which the address was matched.

NAME Designation of fire department and/or rescue station.

ADDRESS A description of a facility's physical location providing direction for delivery and provision of emergency services.

CITY City of facility's physical location

ZIPCODE US postal delivery designation of facility's physical location.

COUNTY County of facility's physical location.

PHONE The phone number of the facility.

TYPE The Type of facility (Fire Station, Rescue Station, Fire Station and Rescue Station).

OPERATING The responsible organization for management and operation of a facility (e.g., public, private, quasi-public).

OP_CLASS Classification of the operating entity.

SOURCE The source of the original data.

USNG_FL_1K Facility's 1-kilometer United States National Grid (USNG) address. The USNG is an alpha-numeric reference system based on the UTM coordinate system and is similar to the Military Grid Reference System. Use of the USNG ensures a uniform grid mapping and positional reporting system for search and rescue, emergency planning, response, and recovery.

About the National Fire Department Census:
(from USFA website: http://www.usfa.dhs.gov/applications/census/about.cfm)
USFA has completed the first phase of the National Fire Department Census. During
October 2001 through the spring of 2002 over 36,000 census forms were mailed to
fire departments across the United States. Approximately 16,000 fire departments
initially registered with the census which is about half of the fire departments
estimated to be in the United States.

The online census database provides a current directory of the fire departments
registered with the census as well as some basic information about each one. The
USFA is working to encourage more fire departments to participate in the census.
In September 2002, additional census forms were mailed to fire departments that
have not already responded to the census.

The purpose of the census is to create a national database for use by USFA, our
colleagues in the fire protection and prevention communities, allied professions
and the general public. USFA will use the database to conduct special studies to
guide program decision-making and to improve direct communication with individual
fire departments.

In addition to collecting the names and addresses of fire departments across the
country, the survey queried fire departments about their capabilities, population
and area protected, number of personnel, and specialized services. In the future,
the USFA plans to release summaries of this information but in order to increase
the validity of the consolidated data more fire department participation is needed.

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.

The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems 
for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

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:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
The GeoPlan Center performed the following steps in order to create the 2008 
statewide fire station and rescue stations data layer.

46 Different Sources Comprise the Fire Stations 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 TelAtlas Streets dataset.

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.
