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

provided by the data sources. 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: 








GeoPlan used the available Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) District 1 2009 parcel tax data records 
gathered from the State Department of Revenue (DOR) to 
create the generalized land use shapefile.

The generalized land use shapefile was created by taking the 
existing parcel data's 99 available land uses [found in the parcel 
data's DORUC field] and generalized them down to 15 land use classes.

A single part dissolve was then run based on the 15 land uses.

A multi delete script was then run to remove any unwanted fields 
and add an ACRES field and DESCRIPT field.  

The DESCRIPT field was calculated based on the Generalized Land 
Use Class Description.

Next the Simplify Polygon GeoProcessing Function was used with 
the Point Remove Algorithm to remove redundant points, such as 
over-digitized vertices found throughout the layer, this function was 
also used to compress the file size of the layer via a relatively low 
degree of simplification.  Then during this simplification process a 
tolerance equal to 1-meter was set in order to allow for a maximum 
offset of 1m from the original source data.  Because the original file 
size of the layer prohibited the use of the 'Resolve Errors' option, a 
'No Check' option was used during the process; because of this 
the algorithm may have introduced small topological errors to the 
simplified results.  To correct for topological errors created 
during this process the Repair Geometry Function was run.

Next each district was loaded to a File Geodatabase.  The Acres field was 
recalculated and features that were >= 0.001 were exported to a new feature 
dataset layer.  Topology Rules were then created for the newly exported features 
such as a cluster tolerance of 1m, and gaps were not allowed.  The topology was 
then validated; next the features were exported to shapefiles.  These shapefiles 
were then run through the repair geometry function to remove self intersections.  
After this was completed the ACRES field was repopulated once more using the 
Calculated Geometry function.
