Description:
Abstract:
State Park Management Zones are divisions of land within Florida State Parks based on factors such as Natural Community types, physical boundaries, land use and geography. This is an update to the FGDL layer STPARK_MZONES_AUG13.shp
Purpose:
State Park Management Zones were created to sub-divide park lands into areas that best facilitate the management of the park lands for conservation and recreation.
Supplemental_Information:
Natural and Cultural Resource Management in Florida State Parks <http://www.dep.state.fl.us/parks/bncr/forms/LandManagement.pdf>
Management of natural and cultural resources in Florida State Parks is two-fold, encompassing natural resources such as forests, springs, seagrass beds and beach dunes, and cultural treasures such as Native American burial sites and historic forts. Florida law requires the Florida Park Service to acquire lands which represent the “original domain” of the state and to conserve these lands and historic sites for all time. These special places require active management to preserve the natural and cultural values for which they were acquired.
Florida’s ecosystems evolved under dynamic natural processes associated with fire, hydrology, and a delicate ecological balance between native species. The resource management goal of the Florida Park Service is to restore the original landscapes of the state by reestablishing these processes. This “natural systems management” ensures that park visitors have the opportunity to experience The Real Florida SM as early Floridians did.
Before there were roads, canals or big cities, lightning-set fires swept across Florida’s landscape. Native Americans also set fires to improve the land for hunting and gathering food. Over thousands of years habitats evolved under the influence of fire. Today, most lightning fires are extinguished to protect lives and property. As a result, many fire-dependent habitats and their associated plant and animal species are in decline. Today, prescribed fire mimics natural fire and can help prevent devastating wildfires. Park staff, guided by detailed plans called prescriptions, conduct prescribed burns as a regular and important part of their land management activities. Prescribed fire is a safe way to apply a natural process, ensure ecosystem health and reduce wildfire risk. To learn more about the role of prescribed fire, visit www.goodfires.org.
Non-native species, often referred to as “exotic,” can out-compete and displace native species. Just as our ecosystems evolved with fire, Florida’s native plants and animals evolved with one another. Some exotic species are invasive and have few natural controls. Exotic species can destroy sensitive habitats and compete with native species for food. Wild hogs damage natural areas with their destructive rooting behavior. Plant species such as cogongrass can alter fire behavior, complicating efforts to restore ecosystems. Park staff are trained to remove exotic species in order to restore ecological balance and preserve the diversity of Florida’s native species. To learn more about exotic species, visit www.floridainvasives.org.
As part of the Florida Park Service’s mission to preserve cultural resources, park staff protect the structures which were acquired for their historic significance, as well as those which are part of our park heritage. Most historic structures in state parks are used in daily park operations while others are restored and maintained for interpretive purposes. Park staff monitor the integrity of historic buildings and assist in preparing detailed plans for their rehabilitation or restoration. Staff are trained to preserve park buildings by performing routine but necessary maintenance such as re-roofing, painting, and window repairs in a manner which protects the historic values of the building. To learn more about preserving historic structures visit www.floridatrust.org.
State park archaeological sites are managed to protect them from natural and human threats. Natural processes which can damage archaeological resources include erosion, burrowing animals and aggressive plant growth. Human activities such as construction, trespassing and looting also threaten these sites and often cause damage which is beyond repair. Park staff are trained to recognize the different types of archaeological sites in their parks and to use best management practices to protect them. This includes monitoring of any ground disturbing activities such as facility construction or infrastructure improvements to ensure sites are protected. To learn more about archaeology in Florida, visit www.flpublicarchaeology.org.
Florida State Parks are home to more than 275 species of plants and animals considered endangered, threatened, or imperiled. Sometimes these species need extra help to ensure their survival. Park staff protect sea turtle nests, reintroduce endangered plant and animal species, and sometimes take steps to limit human access to sensitive nesting and foraging areas. Park staff follow scientific monitoring protocols to keep an eye on the health and well-being of species like the ghost orchid, Florida scrub-jay, Anastasia Island beach mouse and dozens of other imperiled plant and animal species. To learn more about Florida’s imperiled plant and animal species, visit <http://fnai.org/fieldguides.cfm>.

The data was downloaded in shapefile format and was in the following projection: Albers NAD 83 HARN.
During the AQ/QC process the following tasks were undertaken: - Redefined the dataset's projection from FDEP Albers to FGDL Albers. - Upcased all records in the table. - A DESCRIPT field was added based on SITE_NAME. - A FGDLAQDATE field was added based on date downloaded from its source. - Renamed file from PARKS_MANAGEMENT_ZONES.shp to stpark_mzones_feb15.shp

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>
