This dataset contains 2017 Hospital Facility Information for the State of Florida. It is a combination of hospital facility addresses from different sources. The data contains selected fields denoting the name, physical address, and other facility information for hospitals located in Florida. This data is meant to be used for planning purposes only and is not intended to represent a 100% inventory of hospitals in Florida. Hospital locations that have been verified are marked with the letter V in the FLAG field. Please Note: This is an update to the FGDL layer gc_hospitals_feb13.shp. This layer corresponds to the hospitals boundary layer gc_hospitalsbnd_sep17 available through FGDL.
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. In the case of this dataset, special attention was given to the position of the resulting x,y point location of the geocoded address. The location of geocoded x,y point was manually moved by GeoPlan Center from the street to on top of the facility building.

Spatial and Attribute Information
The GeoPlan Center performed the following steps in order to create the 2009 statewide hospitals data layer (GC_HOSPITALS_ARP09). 6 Different Sources Comprise the Hospitals 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 2008 Tele Atlas 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 FDEM data took preference followed by, County data, State Data, and finally geocoded data. Geocoded point locations were manually moved by GeoPlan Center from the street to on top of the facility building. Below are the data Sources as described in the Source field in the attribute table for the GC_HOSPITALS_ARP09 layer.

*********************************************************** In April-May 2011, the GeoPlan Center reviewed and updated the GC_HOSPITALS_ARP09 dataset. Records were cross-referenced to the Florida Hospital Association's (FHA) Hospital Directory (www.fha.org/hospdir.html). Additionally one more SOURCE was added, see below. ************************************************************ IMAGE RESEARCH Hospital Broadband Final CBS1.xlsx TABLE RECORD COUNT = 286 201103 N/A N/A Contact at Image Research - Christopher Sullivan ************************************************************ - From the new Image Research Source 12 records were added. - Additionally 5 new records were added from the existing FHA Source. - Added the following Broadband fields; CON1_TYPE, CON1_UP, CON1_DOWN, CON2_TYPE, CON2_UP, CON2_DOWN, CON3_TYPE, CON3_UP, CON3_DOWN, NET_CONS, WEBSITE, and AHCA_NUM. - Removed the following 11 records from the dataset due to facility closure or facility relocation: ************************************************************ SHANDS AT AGH 801 SW SECOND AVENUE GAINESVILLE 32601 29.649197, -82.333926 ************************************************************ GULF PINES HOSPITAL 102 20TH STREET PORT SAINT JOE 32456 29.796169, -85.299096 ************************************************************ WINDMOOR HEALTHCARE OF MIAMI 1861 NW SOUTH RIVER DRIVE MIAMI 33125 25.78532, -80.225924 ************************************************************ NORTH RIDGE MEDICAL CENTER 5757 NORTH DIXIE HIGHWAY FORT LAUDERDALE 33334 26.197583, -80.133227 ************************************************************ GLADES GENERAL HOSPITAL 1201 SOUTH MAIN STREET BELLE GLADE 33430 26.197583464, -80.133226852 ************************************************************ EVERGLADES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER 200 S BARFIELD HIGHWAY PAHOKEE 33476 26.822131, -80.660836 ************************************************************* G PIERCE WOOD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL 5847 SE HWY 31 ARCADIA 34266 27.136405, -81.800007 ************************************************************* HEALTHSOUTH REHAB HOSPITAL 3251 PROCTOR ROAD SARASOTA 34231 27.284985, -82.505156 ************************************************************* MEMORIAL HOSPITAL - FLAGLER 901 EAST MOODY BOULEVARD BUNNELL 32110 29.469562, -81.251929 ************************************************************ ARCHBOLD MEDICAL CENTER (FIVE-HOSPITAL, FOUR NURSING-HOME SYSTEM) GORDON AVENUE & MIMOSA DRIVE THOMASVILLE GA 31792 30.825345, -83.972741 Located in Georgia not Florida *********************************************************** HOMESTEAD COMMUNITY HOSPITAL - (AKA JAMES ARCHER SMITH HOSPITAL) 160 NW 13TH STREET HOMESTEAD 33030 25.482299, -80.48072 *********************************************************** - Next a FIND and REPLACE function was run on the attribute table for the CON UP and DOWN fields to correct for a typo error of SP which was changed to PS (per second). - Finally the dataset was renamed to GC_HOSPITALS_MAY11 to reflect the updated.
*********************************************************** GeoPlan updated the hospitals_may11 layer. Each record in the layer was scrutinized and verified to be in its proper location. Web searches were also conducted to verify the existence of the facility. Once its location was verified appropriate attributes were updated. Facilities no longer deemed operational were removed from the layer. Some minor table restructuring was done to reflect the current table syntax used by GeoPlan. Once a point was moved to the proper location, the corresponding parcel(s) were extracted from the 2010 statewide parcel geodatabase (gc_hospitalsbnd_nov12). These parcels were assigned the same GeoPlan ID given to the hospital facility's point. Appropriate attributes were extracted from the parcel database and added to this point layer. Additional attributes were added to capture information pertaining to the facility's accompanying parcel including COMMON_USE, USE, and LINK. If a hospital facility 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 AYRBLT were updated using the information in the parcels layer. The USNG_FL_1K, LAT_DD, and LONG_DD were also recalculated to account for any spatial changes during the update. The following hospital facilities were removed the gc_hospitals_may11 layer due to closure, relocation or consolidation: A G HOLLEY STATE HOSPITAL 1199 WEST LANTANA ROAD LANTANA, FL, 33462 SOUTHWEST FLORIDA REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER 2727 WINKLER AVENUE FORT MYERS, FL 33901 SOUTH SHORE HOSPITAL & MEDICAL CENTER 630 ALTON ROAD MIAMI BEACH, FL 33139 SOUTH FLORIDA EVALUATION CENTER 2200 NW 7TH AVENUE MIAMI, FL 33127 TRINITY COMMUNITY HOSPITAL 506 4TH STREET NORTHWEST JASPER, FL 32052 Of the remaining 341 features, 338 were visually verified.
*********************************************************** GeoPlan Center Process Steps: Updated tabular information only on February 13th, 2013. - Cleaned up NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE, OPERATING and DESCRIPT fields. - Updated Metadata.
*********************************************************** In 2017, GeoPlan updated the 2013 Florida hospitals shapefile. During the QA/QC process, GeoPlan performed the following tasks: - Verified all records in GC_HOSPITALS_FEB13.shp using imagery and Google Street View. See the flag field for the definition. Once records were verified, appropriate attributes were updated. Records unable to be verified were noted. 7 hospitals were removed due to facility closure, relocation, or consolidation: 1.
