This data is intended for use in the Efficient Transporation Decision Making Process (ETDM), which includes the development of an on-line application called the Environmental Screening Tool. The primary objective of the program include:
- Effective/timely decision making without compromising environmental quality - Integrating review and permitting processes. - Early NEPA reviews and approvals - Full and early participation - Meaningful dispute resolution
For more information about these initiatives an on-line search using keyword 'ETDM' will provide a number of resources. A listing of relevant documents and resources is included under: <http://fdotenvironmentalstreamlining.urs-tally.com/Library/default.htm>.
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: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>

The data for Alachua County historic structures did not include all structures in the City of Gainesville, only structures with the historic districts. The rest of Alachua County should be complete.
ALACHUA COUNTY: Converted historic structure of Gainesville from polygons to point data using XTOOLS - polygon to centroid.
Merged the Alachua county historic structure shapefile (pts) with the Gainesville city historic sturcture (pts) shape file. Other data was looked at including the National Registry of historic structures but the shapefile provided, was not spatially accurate, so the Alachua County and City of GAinesville shapefiles were used to create a combined layer of points.
GILCHRIST COUNTY: Used Gilchrist County property Appraiser parcel shapefile and queried for AYB > 1955.
GIS data were obtained from the Florida Master Site File for Nassau, Duval, Baker, Duval, St. Johns, Clay, and Putnam counties. These data were analyzed and only the structures that appear on the National Registry of historical Places were extracted as the base layer. The resulting points from FMSF were anlyzed to locate the correct parcel polygon on which the structure is located. The parcel polygons were extracted from their respective layer and all of the extracted polygons from every county were appended into a single layer. Metadata was then created.
GeoPlan received this data, via CDROM, and performed the following: -Reprojected to the FGDL Albers HPGN map projection. -Restructured the attribute table to fit the SCE Data Specification Document Standards. -Merged datasets together to create one FDOT District-wide shapefile. -Added FGDLAQDATE field based on the date FGDL acquired the data from the source. -Added DESCRIPT field based on 'SITE_NAME'
