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'.

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: 








The County boundary TIGER/Line file was enhanced at the GeoPlan Center by the 
addition of attribute data from the Florida Department of Highway Safety
and Motor Vehicles Traffic Crash Facts 2002. The county boundaries data layer
was acquired from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection GIS Division.

Steps taken during GeoPlan QAQC processing:

-Dissolved FGDL cntbnd shapefile based on NAME
-Deleted AREA, PERIMETER, and FGDLCODE fields from attribute table
-Added BI_1998, BI_1999, BI_2000, BI_2001, BI_2002, BF_1998, BF_1999
 BF_2000, BF_2001, and BF_2002 fields to attribute table
-Added data per county from Traffic Crash Stats 2002
-TOTAL_POP, AGE_18_UP, and UNDER_18 were joined to the attribute
 table from the FGDL cntbdem shapefile.
-Added DESCRIPT field based on NAME to attribute table
Process Date: 

The bike_accidents layer was enhanced at the GeoPlan Center by the 
addition of attribute data from the Florida Department of Highway Safety
and Motor Vehicles Traffic Crash Statistics Report 2005.

Added fields: INJURY_03, INJURY_04, INJURY_05, FATAL_03, FATAL_04, 
               and FATAL_05
Process Date: 20070619


The bike_accidents layer was enhanced at the GeoPlan Center by the 
addition of attribute data from the Florida Department of Highway Safety
and Motor Vehicles Traffic Crash Statistics Report 2007.

http://www.flhsmv.gov/hsmvdocs/CS2007.pdf

Added fields: INJURY_06, INJURY_07, FATAL_06, and FATAL_07
Process Date: 20090529


The County boundary TIGER/Line file was updated at the GeoPlan Center
by the addition of 2008 and 2009 attribute data from the Florida Department 
of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles Traffic Crash Facts 2009. The county 
boundaries data layer was also updated and acquired from the Florida 
Geographic Data Library (FGDL).

Steps taken during GeoPlan QAQC processing:

- Joined the previous bike_accidents_2007 shapefile to the new county 
  boundaries shapefile (cntbnd) based on name.
- Appended the attributes of the bike_accidents_2007 shapefile to the 
  cntbnd shapefile by exporting the joined cntbnd 
  shapefile and naming it bike_accidents_2009.
- Deleted  AREA, PERIMETER,  FGDLCODE and redundant fields from 
  the attribute table
- Added fields INJURY_08, INJURY_09, FATAL_08, AND FATAL_09 
  based on the latest data from the 2009 crash report
  (http://www.flhsmv.gov/hsmvdocs/CS2009.pdf).
- Updated the FGDLAQDATE field to reflect when the latest statistics were acquired.
