Description:
Abstract:
This dataset contains suitable habitat for the Florida Sand Skink (Neoseps reynoldsi) and Blue-Tailed Mole Skink (Eumeces egregius lividus). This layer was created by University of Florida - GeoPlan Center using criteria set forth in the Peninsular Florida Species Conservation and Consultation Guide for Skinks.
Purpose:
The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

Process_Description:
-Select features from NRCS_SOILS_JUN12 that are one of the 20 suitable soil types. The following selection on soil type was executed:
COMPNAME = 'APOPKA' OR COMPNAME = 'ARREDONDO' OR COMPNAME = 'ARCHBOLD' OR COMPNAME = 'ASTATULA' OR COMPNAME = 'CANDLER' OR COMPNAME = 'DAYTONA' OR COMPNAME = 'DUETTE' OR COMPNAME = 'FLORAHOME' OR COMPNAME = 'GAINESVILLE' OR COMPNAME = 'HAGUE' OR COMPNAME = 'KENDRICK' OR COMPNAME = 'LAKE' OR COMPNAME = 'MILLHOPPER' OR COMPNAME = 'ORSINO' OR COMPNAME = 'PAOLA' OR COMPNAME = 'POMELLO' OR COMPNAME = 'SATELLITE' OR COMPNAME = 'ST. LUCIE' OR COMPNAME = 'TAVARES' OR COMPNAME = 'ZUBER'
-Select from selection set only those features that intersect the skink consultation area and export to new feature class
-ran reclass on 1ft FLIDAR_MOSAIC DEM to get values 70-82ft and 82ft and above in ArcMap with mask set as extent of skink_ca.
-export reclass result to shapefile, repair geometry, export to fgdb
-ran intersect on soil selection and elevation
-ran dissolve on elevation field. single part shapes preserved.
-clipped to skink_ca
-ran eliminate on all polygons less than 25 square meters (chose the 25 because of grid cells of dem 5x5m). 3044 values selected during eliminate command
-any values that didn't eliminate get deleted (this would be any island polygon less than 25 square meters) 157 values deleted
-Renamed output SKINK_SUITABILITY_JAN13
-Added DESCRIPT field based on "HABITAT" + ELEV field
-Added FGDLAQDATE based on process date

Resource_Description: DOWNLOADABLE DATA
Distribution_Liability:
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 scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>
