USER NOTES:

The final product was checked against the source material. The Mapping and GIS section of the Southwest Florida Water Management District corrected any errors found.

There are no significant omissions. Some historical permits are not currently mapped, but will be captured in the future during cleanup efforts.

GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data.

To aid in locating the best geometry available for an Environmental Resource Permit.

Visual inspection of the linework over the DOQQs, at a scale of 1:8,000, is used to verify the positional placement of the linework. Data is estimated to be compliant with the National Map Accuracy Standards for 1:12,000, estimated +/- 33.3 feet.

This data is provided 'as is' and its vertical positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

These data were not collected under the supervision of a licensed Professional Surveyor and Mapper. Use of these data requires a general understanding of GIS.

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.

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.

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

The initial version of the ERP_PROJECT_AREA_EDIT feature class was created from the legacy ERP polygons March 7, 2010. The attributes in the ERP_PROJECT_AREA_EDIT feature class were then populated (most did not exist in ERP). It is important to note that there were few formal business rules associated with the ERP layer. Permit boundaries could reflect actual ownership, area where construction was going to be performed, a project area, or some combination of the above. Process Date: 20100307 After the initial feature class was created data cleanup was initiated to adjust all polygons so that they are defined in accordance with ERP_PROJECT_AREA procedures. This essentially means that polygon boundaries must follow rules established by the ERP Project Boundary Setting Team, that were approved by the Managers in February 2010. A reference document can be found depicting these rules by contacting the Performance Management Office ERP Project Manager. Typically, the boundary will roughly follow the limits of construction. As permits come in for modifications or renewal the boundaries are corrected. Where possible, adjacent permit boundaries area also corrected. The bottom line is that new, modified or renewed permits will be mapped properly. Cleanup of historical permits will take multiple years and is subject to approval of funding each fiscal year. Process Date: Daily The process for editing/creating new Project Activity Areas is as follows: 1) The permittee provides their best estimate of the boundary using the WMIS online permit application tools. This results in either a parcel boundary from the property appraiser's data, the existing permit boundary, a sketch made using the WMIS sketch tool, or a site plan that the reviewer can reference. 2) The District review staff check the information provided by the applicant, then send a sketch to REG GIS depicting the actual Project Activity Area using a customized tool in ArcMap (ERP Editing Tool). 3) The REG GIS editors review the data submitted by the reviewers and adjust it as necessary to obtain the best possible boundary. In doing so the editor consults parcel data, legal descriptions, aerial imagery, and other available sources. The editor updates attributes as required. Process Date: Daily A PYTHON script determines the total land area records that are not found in the project activity area layer. It then adds all the records found in the ERP_PROJECT_AREA_EDIT and those found in the ERP_TOTAL_LAND_AREA_EDIT to a ERP_COMBINED layer. This is done on a daily basis. Process Date: Not complete A third party software application, joins a view of attributes, ERP_V, with the ERP_COMBINED feature class and creates a new feature class in the District's GIS enterprise database. This is done on a daily basis. Process Date: Not complete The PYTHON script calculates the attribute, ERP_LABEL_TXT. This attribute is calculated with the <ERP_PERMIT_NBR>.<ERP_REVISION_NBR> for those permits in approved or delete status. The attribute is calculated with APP_ID <ERP_APPLICATION_ID> for those permits in incomplete or denied status. This is done on a daily basis. Process Date: Not complete This dataset was received by the GeoPlan Center via ftp on 10/14/2011. The data was originally in shapefile format. When received the data set was in the following projection: NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Florida_West_FIPS_0902_Feet. The data was projected to Albers NAD 83 HARN. This data is updated daily by the Southwest Florida Water Management District. Please see their data downloads page for the most up-to-date data. - Added the field DESCRIPT based on PROJECTNA. - Added the field FGDLAQDATE based on date downloaded from source. - Upcased all text in the attribute table. - Data set was renamed sw_erp_oct11 from ERP_PA_PLUS_EXT - Deleted OBJECTID field Process Date: 20111014
