In general, null values in the original database have been converted to 
zeros. So a 0 in a field generally indicates that a question was not answered.

It is important to note that some facilities may have fit the definition for 
multiple types of facilities, in these cases all types were noted in the 
facility s record:

Commercial marina - A boating facility of any size, at which any boater 
can rent space for their boat - if space is available.

Dockominium marina - A specific type of marina in which spaces are 
privately owned. Owners might pay a monthly fee for upkeep, but do 
not pay a monthly rental fee. These facilities do not include condominium 
housing with an associated boating facility unless berthing/storage is 
purchased independently from the condo unit.

Private club - A facility for which a membership is required in order 
to make use of the boating infrastructure. Generally, transients, or 
boaters who are members of a club in another location may be 
permitted to use an affiliated private club. Clubs may be part of larger 
facilities, but they do not include condo complexes in which living in 
the complex is the only prerequisite for having access to the boating 
facility.

Condominium housing - A condominium development with an associated 
docking component available for use with the purchase of a condo. 
Condominium housing does not include situations in which the berthing 
must be purchased independently from the condo unit.

Publicly owned and privately operated - A boating facility owned by a 
government entity, but with a private management company.

Publicly owned and operated - A boating facility owned by a government 
entity, with the management staff on the government s payroll.

Hotel/motel - A hotel or motel with an associated boating component. 
Hotel/motel does not include multi-family developments in which units 
are rented seasonally.

Restaurant - An eating and/or drinking establishment with an associated 
berthing/docking component.

Multi-family/Apartment building - A housing situation, other than condominium 
housing, with multiple residential units under one roof or in a compound having 
an associated boating component. This includes multi-family arrangements 
where units are rented seasonally.

Boat sales/services - A boat sales or service company with boating infrastructure.

Commercial business - A commercial business with boating infrastructure.

Mobile home park/campground - A property with multiple mobile homes. 
This includes both residential communities where the mobile homes are 
more-or-less permanent homes (either rented or sold), and properties where 
mobile homes are transient recreational vehicles towed to a site for a short 
period of time. Note: While there are often significant differences between 
a permanent mobile home park and a campground/RV park, the type of 
boating infrastructure found at these normally consists of communal docks, 
individual docks, or a combination of the two. While the distinction between 
the two land use types (permanent residential community versus transient visitor 
accommodation) is not made in the database, detailed information on the 
types of boating infrastructure and how they are managed (e.g., whether 
berthing is rented, sold or available for transient boaters) is captured.

Docks only - Boat docks not affiliated with any shoreside facility.
Government only - Boating facility available for government use only.

Vacant - An otherwise vacant property with associated boating infrastructure.

Unknown - Boating infrastructure associated with an unknown shoreside facility.

Other residential - A residential property such as a single-family residence 
where boating infrastructure is available.

Other - Boating infrastructure associated with a type of facility not described 
above. (Field personnel were asked to provide a description of the facility type).

Hand-launch only - A ramp not designed for launching a boat on a trailer. 
Often these are for canoes and kayaks only.

Stand-alone boat ramp - A ramp that is not part of a facility listed above.

GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within
the original data.
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was 
known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name 
has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed 
by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed 
in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.

The original data set was produced during the Statewide Boating Access 
Facilities Inventory and Economic Study, FWC contract Number 04/05-23 
and delivered by the contractor August 30, 2009. The purpose of that study 
was to create a comprehensive inventory of publicly accessible boat access 
facilities and conduct several economic studies to quantify economic impact 
of recreational boating; estimate present and projected supply/demand; conduct 
site suitability analysis for potential or expanded facilities; and estimate capital 
costs for new or improved facilities.

Please see "Florida Boating Access Facilities Inventory and Economic Study 
including a pilot study for Lee County" report for information on quality control 
and completeness.

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

and Economic Study including a pilot study for Lee County: A Report to the 
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on August 30, 2009.
The project entailed several data collection efforts:
A comprehensive statewide inventory of coastal and inland boating access 
facilities;
A survey of recreational boaters;
A visual survey (using aerial photographs and GIS data) of the number and 
type of boat berthing opportunities at a sample of waterfront residential properties 
in 63 counties; and A survey of a sample of public agencies for data and 
information on planned or programmed capital investments in boating facilities.

Please see the source report (under Cross Reference) for more details about these methods.
Process Date: 
Data were exported from Access to Excel. The data were added to ArcMap using the add X, Y data tool and data from multiple tables were joined based on Marina ID field. The data were exported to a feature class. Attributes FAC_TYPE and WATER_ACC were added to create text fields describing the types of facilities and types of water accessed. The county field was converted from a numeric code to the text name of the county. Process Date: 2013
The Marinas database was updated using Google Imagery, County property appraiser web sites, and Marinas web pages when applicable. Changes were made to the database as needed including Marina locations, addresses, phone numbers, emails and web pages (when applicable), and clean marina designations. Domains were added to 3 fields: FAC_TYPE, WATER_ACCESS, CLEAN_MAR. This was done to limit the number of unique values in these fields, to insure data integrity, and to facilitate future updates to the database. Process Date: 2016
The data were updated to remove a law enforcement facility with no public access. Process Date: 2017
GeoPlan downloaded this data in shapefile format from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission-Fish and Wildlife Research Institute FTP site on June 21, 2017. The data was received as a shapefile in projection: NAD_1983_2011_Florida_GDL_Albers. The dataset was then projected from NAD_1983_2011_Florida_GDL_Albers to FGDL Albers HARN using NAD_1983_To_HARN_Florida transformation. This is the first time we've received this dataset in NAD_1983_2011_Florida_GDL_Albers. Previously it came in a custom PCS Albers projection. Projecting using the following transformation: nad_1983_harn_to_nad_1983_2011 has introduced a shift between 0.5 and 1 meter. - Reprojected data to FGDL Albers HARN - Added a DESCRIPT field to attribute table based on MARINA - Added a FGDLAQDATE field based on date received from source - Renamed shapefile from Marinas_fl_pnt to MARINAS_JAN17 - Upcased all records in the attribute table Process Date: 20171101
Dataset copied. Process Date: 20171103
