TITLE: OFF-ROAD VEHICLE RECREATIONAL TRAILS 2002
Geodataset Name: TRLORV Geodataset Type: SHAPE Geodataset Feature: POLYGON
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
TRLORV is a polygon shapefile that includes the off-road vehicle trails in the State of Florida. The off-road vehicle trails are the boundaries of the national forests in the state of Florida less the wilderness areas in the national forests.

NAME Trail Name MAINTAIN Group responsible for maintaining the trails. DESCRIPT Description Item for Florida Geographic Data Library Project The TYPE item was used for this coverage. Motorized DATE_INPUT The date the trail was added to shapefile. SOURCE Numerical code given to indicate the source the trail was digitized from: 1 The boundary of the Apalachicola National Forest was obtained from a shapefile of managed land in the State of Florida produced by the Florida Natural Areas Inventory. The boundary of the wilderness areas in the forest were digitized from the US Forest Service Apalachicola National Forest map. 2 The boundary of the Osceola National Forest was obtained from a shapefile of managed lands in the State of Florida produced by the Florida Natural Areas Inventory. The boundary of the wilderness area in the forest were digitized from the US Forest Service Osceola National Forest map. 3 The boundary of the Ocala National Forest was obtained from a shapefile of managed land in the State of Florida produced by the Florida Natural Areas Inventory. The boundary of the wilderness areas in the forest were digitized from the US Forest Service Ocala National Forest map. 4 The boundary of the Withlacoochee State Forest Croom Motorcycle Area is based on info from the following website. http://www.wdsrc.com/rideareas/croom.shtml
USER NOTES:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modelling 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. 1:250000 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 analyses. 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 web pages at: http://www.geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html
