Description:

Abstract:

This data set contains golf courses for the State of Florida derived from the Florida Department of Revenue (DOR) 2009 tax data and cross referenced with Golf Link online golf directory. Golf courses missing from DOR database were digitized using aerial photography.

Purpose:

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

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The GeoPlan Center Performed the following steps in creating the 2009 Statewide golf course data layer;
1) Parcels were extracted from the available 2009 DOR statewide parcel tax data based on their use code value of 038 (golf courses). 2) GeoPlan spatially related the newest Land Use and Cover files from each of the 5 water management districts (WMD) on the extracted parcels to determine discrepancies in the parcel database. Twenty courses were extracted from the WMD's land use files that were not included the original parcel extraction. 3) Additional information was collected and the dataset was further validated by utilizing Golf Link's online golf course directory. - Searched for courses in Florida at <http://www.golflink.com/> - All addresses from the search were copied and pasted into a text file, which was then formatted and imported into Excel and converted into a dbf file format. - The addresses were then geocoded against a 2009 Tel Atlas road database and converted into a shapefile with FGDL Albers HPGN map projection. - GeoPlan spatially related the geocoded shapefile to further determine discrepancies between the extracted parcels and Golf Link's database. Seven golf facilities not included in the extracted parcels and WMD land use were digitized using satellite imagery. - Many times golf clubs have multiple courses. Each course in the Golf Link database has a separate record. This conflicts with the parcel and WMD land use databases which typically aggregate multiple golf courses belonging to the same club into one polygon. For these instances, the NAME field was recorded to indicate each of the course names and golf club represented by the polygon as recorded in the Golf Link geocoded database. The TYPE field was also aggregated to represent the total number of holes and yards across all represented by the polygon. The OP_CLASS field was also populated using the geocoded Golf Link's database. - This dataset contains the final selection and additions from the original parcel dataset with selected fields removed and socio-cultural effect fields and attribute definitions added. - Added the descript field based on NAME - Added the FGDLAQDATE based on the date GeoPlan acquired the data from the source.

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.

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.
