USER NOTES:
This data is provided 'as is'. GeoPlan relied on the integrity
of the original data layer's topology
This data is provided 'as is' by GeoPlan and is complete to our
knowledge.
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within
the original data.

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

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

Because several methods may be used to gather information for this 
coverage, the accuracy of the location points will vary. See the METHOD 
field for location determination method. The data is reviewed regularly to 
improve accuracy.  This dataset is intended to be used for general locational 
representation and should not be considered appropriate for legal and/or 
cadastral purposes.

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

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:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
Inception of scripted refresh process.  Information is pulled from regulatory 
database daily.
Process Date: 06/30/99

Pull scripts modified at request of Steve Ray. Process Date: 06/01/00
Pull scripts modified to reflect table, view and column name changes due to migration of databases to agency web-compliant naming standards. Process Date: 01/22/02
Pull scripts modified to allow greater precision during location calculations and to assume NULL values as NAD83. Process Date: 12/12/02
Pull scripts modified to integrate CHAZ into SWAP WebPoint data cleanup. Process Date: 06/16/03
New update method instituted for TSDS involving the import of a shapefile exported from tsds_sp_vw, a spatial view of the CHAZ denormalized table chaz_sp. Process Date: 20050721
This data is a result of the CHAZ database integrated in the Integrated Management System. Process Date:
This dataset was downloaded by the GeoPlan Center on 7/3/2012 from the FDEP website (http://www.dep.state.fl.us/gis/datadir.htm). The data was downloaded as a shapefile and was in the following projection: Albers NAD 83 HARN. This dataset is updated daily. Contact the FDEP for the most recent data. - Added the field DESCRIPT based on NAME. - Added the field FGDLAQDATE based on date downloaded from source. - Upcased all text in the attribute table. - Deleted field OBJECTID - Data set was renamed tsds_jul12 from TSDS_IMS_SP_VW Process Date: 20120703
