- Process_Description:
-
Individual files for the Congressional Districts in Alaska, Hawaii,
Puerto Rico, and the 48 contiguous states were merged into a
single data set using ARC/INFO. After completing topological
and attribute verification using ARC/INFO, the data was
converted into shapefile format.

In July 2010 Geoplan obtained the data from the Bureau of
Transportation Statistics in CDROM format. During the QA/QC
process, GeoPlan performed the following tasks.
-Extracted features where "STATEFIPS" = '12' to select features in Florida.
-Reprojected Florida selection set from GCS_WGS_1984 to Albers Conical
Equal Area (Florida Geographic Data Library)
-Uppercased all fields
-Removed leading spaces from the NAME field
-Added DESCRIPT field based on the concatenation of "US DISTRICTS" &
the field DISTRICT
-Added FGDLAQDATE field based on the date GeoPlan received the data
-Renamed the dataset from CD111 to USDIST_2009

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:
