- Abstract:
-
This dataset contains 2010 registered Homeowner's (HOA) and Condominium Association Information for the State of Florida. The layer was derived from the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation's registered condominium database. The database consists of approved, acknowledged and recorded condominium projects and managing entities (terminated, rejected or withdrawn projects are not included). This data is meant to be used for planning purposes only and is not intended to represent a 100% inventory of condominium HOAs in Florida. Please note that previous versions of this layer utilized information obtained from Super Pages and Yellow Pages online. Super Pages and Yellow Pages online included information regarding HOA's affiliated with developments other than condos. Due to increases in the difficulty of transferring information from Super Pages and Yellow Pages Online to a table structure conducive to geocoding, this information is omitted with this version. This layer, therefore, only contains information regarding registered condominiums in the state of Florida. This dataset is an update to the gc_hoa_sep08 layer.
- Purpose:
-
The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems
for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
The Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation oversee licensing and
regulation of a wide range of commercial activities in the state of Florida pursuant to
Chapter 20.165, Florida Statutes.
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.

GeoPlan Center Process Steps:
Condominium information was obtained from the
Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation via
their condominium, timeshares, and mobile homes public records
download website at <http://www.myfloridalicense.com/dbpr/sto/>
file_download/public-records-CTMH.html. Five separate
condominium tables were downloaded representing different
geographical regions across the state of Florida in CSV format.
The tables were converted to DBF tables, formatted, and merged
together. There were 26,667 records in the merged table. The dbf
was then geocoded against a statewide 2009 NAVTEQ street
dataset and converted into a shapefile with the FGDL Albers
HPGN map projection. (See "Map Projection Parameters" below).
After geocoding the following steps were applied.
- Unmatched locations or locations receiving a score below 80(10,397) were
reevaluated using Google Maps. Locations' addresses that were
successfully located were modified to reflect the correct address using
the geocode rematch tool in ArcGIS.
- 2,873 records were unable to be matched after reevaluation and therefore
removed from the database.
- Capitalized all fields.
- Added and calculated the USNG_FL_1K, LONG_DD, and, LAT_DD fields.
- Added FLAG and UPDATE_DAY fields.
- Added FGDLAQDATE based on the date GeoPlan acquired the
data from the Source.
- Added the DESCRIPT field based on NAME.

-
- Process_Description:
-
During the QA/QC process, unmatched records were again scrutinized.
All condominium records over 50 units were reevaluated primarily using
online real estate websites. Condominiums' addresses that were located
online were spatially located using ArcMap's Geocode Rematch Tool. An
additional 1,303 records were matched out of the 2,873 records initially unable
to be matched.

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
