GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data. |
This data set was created to show the location of the State Historic Highways (SHH). It provides users with the ability to determine the presence or proximity of a SHH to a given project. The Laws of Florida identified in the attribute table represent the legal requirements for the handling of SHH involvement in a project, which include coordination or review by the Florida Department of State - Division of Historic Resources. A note concerning data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasetsare not suitable for some project, analysis, or modelling 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. 1:250000 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 analyses. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References sectionand the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our web pages at: http://www.geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html |
For the State Historic Highway designations see the following Laws of Florida: 74-400;75-312;76-304;77-491;80-433;81-164;83-365;84-379;86-308;88-418; 89-383;91-320;92-152;93-294; and 95-434. |
The data was compiled from the Laws of Florida, which designate the State Historic Highways. The pertinent laws are identified by the year instituted and the bill number (for example, 74-400 for the designation ofOld Cutler Road). Roadway limits were determined from the text and the appropriate roadway section ID and Mile Posts were identified using the FDOT basemap. GeoPlan received the data via Email in April 2005. The data was projected from UTM Zone 17N NAD83 to FGDL Albers. |
