Abstract:
This dataset, created by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's (FDEP) Bureau of Watershed Restoration, is an inventory of Land use - Land Cover classified in the State of Florida's Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD) and is based on 2004 Digital Ortho Quarter Quad Aerial Imagery program Color Infrared and True color photography. Classifications are provided for level 1, 2, 3 and a few level 4 (indicated in Land use and Secondary Code fields) land uses. Please note: The field names in the original attribute table from FDEP/SRWMD were renamed by the GeoPlan Center. The original field names from FDEP/SRWMD are listed in the Process Steps (Data Quality Section) and in the Attribute Definitions (Entity and Attribute Information section). All Water Management District land use datasets distributed via FGDL will contain these standardized field names, for ease of using land use data at the statewide extent.
Purpose:
Analyses of Land Use - Land Cover GIS information provide environmental scientists an understanding of the relationships between human activities, land surface physiography and water resources. Florida's landscape is quickly changing and as a result, at the time prior to this layer's creation, existing land use - land cover GIS layers for the Suwannee River area were out-of-date. A more current layer was needed to improve the accuracy of these analyses.
Supplemental_Information:
The creation of this layer involves photo interpretation; for this data layer the classification of the land surface into one or two of 170 types. It is the nature of interpretation that it involves the assessment of multiple sources of information, primarily the color, shape, pattern, horizontal size, vertical height, texture and context of features in a photograph and secondarily, information provided in ancillary data layers to arrive at a conclusive attribute assignment.

Conclusion is a product of a weights-of-evidence analysis and as compared to direct measurement is subject to larger variability. Several staff were involved in the creation of this layer and an individual's skill at photo interpretation is a known variable among several affecting accuracy. In an effort to improve accuracy and limit variation between photo interpreters skills, the following methods were employed: 1. Sought photo interpreters who had several years of experience. 2. Provided like-training when at all possible 3. Held ongoing field trips to "calibrate" photo features with real world features. 4. Tested photo interpreters and compared results as a qualitative assessment of variation prior to production of the layer 5. Assessed each photo interpreters work weekly to assure compliance with methodological rules 6. Randomly selected classified polygons and made field trips monthly to verify classifications, results were provided to Photo interpreters

Largest variation occurred between 6170: Mixed Wetland Hardwoods and 6300: Wetland Forested Mixed classifications. It is difficult in some instances to distinguish between coniferous signatures and colors reflected from hardwoods that keep their leaves throughout the winter when photographs were flown. It too is labor intensive to accurately determine the proportion of hardwood versus coniferous trees in these mixed classifications when polygons can be quite large and access constraints because of private property postings are numerous so field verifications of these classifications yield information of limited value.

2. This large polygon was subdivided to allow the unique assignment of smaller areas to each photo interpreter. Subdivisions were based on a number of long linear features that were themselves classification types. This effectively reduced the amount of edge matching that would have to take place when subdivided polygons were stitched back together. These classes included; Streams and Waterways, Electrical Power Transmission Lines, Railroads, Highways.

Process_Description:
The GeoPlan Center received the original dataset SRWMD_LANDUSE_2004.shp from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's Bureau of Watershed Restoration via FTP on April 10, 2008.

The dataset was originally in the FDEP Albers projection which matched the FGDL Albers projection so the FDEP .prj file was swapped out for the FGDL .prj file.

Next the records in the attribute table were UPPERCASED.

Below is the original FDEP SRWMD file structure:

ITEM NAME WIDTH TYPE Shape 0 Geometry OID_ 4 Integer LANDUSE_CODE 4 Integer SECONDARY_CODE 4 Integer LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION 85 String SECONDARY_DESCRIPTION 85 String LEVEL_1_LANDUSE 4 String LEVEL_2_LANDUSE 4 String LEVEL_3_LANDUSE 4 String OBJECTID 4 OID

Below is the crosswalk table between the original file structure and the new file structure:

Overview_Description:
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
The adopted classification scheme has resulted from the following process:

1. Potential classification types originally taken from Florida Department of Transportations "Florida Land use, cover and forms classification system"

2. Conformity with SJRWMD's classification system was sought whenever possible out of an interest in creating a data layer that would result in a product that was seamless in terms of its geometry and attribution with this contingent area.

3. Bureau of Watershed Restoration, Watershed Assessment Section (WAS) Managers reviewed a preliminary list for the purpose of identifying classification types that contributed to sources of pollution and those that allowed them to identify natural conditions that may have an effect on water quality impairment. This led to the removal of some classification types from the preliminary list to form a WAS wants list.

4. Photo interpreters reviewed the available photography for the purpose of determining which of the WAS wants list could and could not be classified. For example, the resolution of the imagery allowed a photointerpreter to confidently assign the level 3 class code of 2140: Row Crops to a polygon but not of any of the Level 4 codes (see next item).

5. The FLUCC's system is hierarchical; it includes four levels that build in terms of specificity: A Level 1 classification is the most general it is a four digit code in which the first integer in the code is assigned one of eight numbers; 1000 = Urban and Built up class, 2000 = Agricultural, 3000 = Rangeland, 4000 = Upland Forests, 5000 = Water, 6000 = Wetlands, 7000 = Barren Land and 8000 = Transportation, Communications, Utilities. The second integer (and each successive integer) provides a subclassification of a higher specificity. For example 2100 (Level II) Class is Crop and pasture land a subtype of the 2000 Agricultural class, 2150 (Level III) : Field Crops is a specific subtype of the 2100 Crop and pasture land subtype. Further, 2153 (Level iV) is a specific subtype of the 2150 class.

Very few level 4 classifications have been chosen. This is so because discernment of the keys to classification for these classes typically require imagery of a higher resolution than our source imagery. The Level 4 designation is indicated in either the Land Use Code or Secondary Code Fields of the attribute table.

6. A few classification types were added to accommodate needs that were specific to the Water Management districts.
