This data is provided "as is". GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the original data layer's topology. |
The legislature also enacted Preservation 2000 in 1990. That act also funds SOR land acquisition activities. Projects must meet criteria from both Preservation 2000 and Save Our Rivers. This data of project boundaries is intended to include all known SOR projects that have a definable spatial extent. An assessment of completeness is not available, but the author is not aware of any errors of omission. This data is continually updated by Land Resources as new information becomes available. |
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data. |
POLYGON |
This dataset represents the boundaries for the Save Our Rivers Project. Maintaining consistency of information sources and products is one of the main objectives of the Save our Rivers strategy. The widespread use of digital formats and modern communications makes it possible to proliferate an unmanageable number of different versions in a short period of time. Data stewardship, centralized tracking and distribution, and improved documentation are some of the preventive measures that data managers will use to insure that consistent versions of high quality data are available to all stakeholders. This data layer of project boundaries, which is a key layer for nearly all Save Our Rivers applications, is a prime example of that strategy. |
This data is provided "as is" and its horizontal positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan. |
This data is provided 'as is' and its vertical positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan |
THE DATA INCLUDED IN FGDL ARE 'AS IS' AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS LEGALLY BINDING. 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.
