USER NOTES:

There may be some inconsistencies in feature names along features. An anomaly exists with the sporadic occurrence of road segments comprising a complete chain with different MAF/TIGER Feature Census Class Code (MTFCC) values assigned. This problem could affect applications that use the MTFCC values for network analysis, routing, or for assigning symbology to a feature when creating a map. The Census Bureau performed automated tests to ensure logical consistency and limits of shapefiles. Node/geometry and topology relationships are collected or generated to satisfy topological edit requirements. These requirements include: (1) Complete chains must begin and end at nodes. (2) Complete chains must connect to each other at nodes. (3) Complete chains do not extend through nodes. (4) Left and right polygons are defined for each complete chain element and are consistent throughout the extract process. (5) The chains representing the limits of the files are free of gaps.

Data completeness of the TIGER/Line Shapefiles reflects the contents of the Census MAF/TIGER database at the time the TIGER/Line Shapefiles were created.

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

The TIGER/Line Shapefiles are the fully supported, core geographic product from the U.S. Census Bureau. They are extracts of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File/Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) database. The shapefiles include information for the fifty states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Island areas (American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and the United States Virgin Islands). The shapefiles include polygon boundaries of geographic areas and features, linear features including roads and hydrography, and point features. They do not contain any sensitive data. --------------------------------------------------------- Please Note: This dataset has been formatted so that it may be used as a reference dataset in an address locator file. If you wish to create an address locator using this roads dataset please read the following Esri ArcGIS documentation: Creating an address locator (ArcMap 10.6) http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/manage-data/geocoding/creating-an-address-locator.htm Create a locator (ArcGIS PRO) http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/geocoding/create-a-locator.htm ---------------------------------------------------------

The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes. In order for others to use the information in the Census MAF/TIGER database in a geographic information system (GIS) or for other geographic applications, the Census Bureau releases to the public extracts of the database in the form of TIGER/Line Shapefiles.

The Census Bureau uses Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates at road centerline intersections to evaluate the horizontal spatial accuracy of source files that may be used to realign road features in the MAF/TIGER database and test the horizontal spatial accuracy of the road features in the TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The test compares a survey-grade GPS coordinate to its associated road centerline intersection in the TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The test is based on an independent collection of GPS coordinates for a random sample of road intersections from a centerline file that meet certain criteria. The points are referred to as the sample points and are gathered through a private contractor working for the Census Bureau. Since the collection method uses survey-quality GPS-based field techniques, the resulting control points are considered 'ground truth' against which the TIGER road centerline intersection coordinates are compared. The distances between the coordinates are calculated and the Census Bureau determines the Circular Error 95% (CE95). That is, the accuracy of the file in meters with 95% confidence. The CE95 can be calculated from the mean and standard deviation by using the formula: mean of differences plus (2.65 times the standard deviation). CE95 results reported for each file tested are determined using a spreadsheet with embedded statistical formula. The use and applicability of the spreadsheet and its embedded formula have been verified by Census Bureau statisticians. The basis of the calculation is the use of the root mean square error (RSME). This is the method as stated in the U.S. Government's Federal Geographic Data Committee Standard FGDC-STD-007.3-1998, Geospatial Positioning Accuracy Standards. Part 3: National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy. The results of using this measure of accuracy are in compliance with Federal Spatial Data requirements. In terms of the Census Bureau application, the dataset coordinate values are those taken from the centerline file and the coordinate values from an independent source of higher accuracy are those acquired through the Census Bureau's contractor. Please note that the horizontal spatial accuracy, where reported, refers only to the realigned road features identified as matched to the positionally accurate source file with that accuracy. It is not the spatial accuracy of the TIGER/Line Shapefile as a whole.

The TIGER/Line Shapefiles may not be suitable for high-precision measurement applications such as engineering problems, property transfers, or other uses that might require highly accurate measurements of the earth's surface. Coordinates in the TIGER/Line shapefiles have six implied decimal places, but the positional accuracy of these coordinates is not as great as the six decimal places suggest.

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.

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:

TIGER/Line Shapefiles are extracted from the Census MAF/TIGER database by nation, state, county, and entity. Census MAF/TIGER data for the nation, state, county, and entity are then distributed among 67-countywide shapefiles or 1-statewide FGDB for Florida. Each containing attributes for line, polygon, or landmark geographic data. 2018 TIGER/Line Shapefiles All legal boundaries and names are as of January 1, 2018. Released September 28, 2018. SOURCE: https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger-line.html Process Date: 20180917 GeoPlan Center Process Steps: GeoPlan downloaded the 2018 Census Bureau's TIGER/Line data for the State of Florida on February 8th, 2019 from the following FTP site. ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TGRGDB18/tlgdb_2018_a_12_fl_edges.gdb.zip The Florida Tiger/Line data was downloaded in FGDB format at the statewide level. The data was originally in the following projection: North American Datum of 1983, GRS80, Decimal Degrees. The Statewide layer was reprojected to the FGDL NAD83 HARN Albers projection. Next a selection was performed on the statewide layer where the field [ROADFLG] = 'Y' The roadway features were then extracted to create a new statewide roads layer. Next the following fields were deleted to remove unused fields and decrease the size of the dataset. STATEFP, TFIDL, TFIDR, SMID, FEATCAT, HYDROFLG, RAILFLG, ROADFLG, OLFFLG, EXTTYP, TTYP, ARTPATH, PERSIST, GCSEFLG, OFFSETL, OFFSETR, TNIDF, and TNIDT. Next the following fields were added and populated to help standardize the dataset for use as a reference layer in geocoding. ADDR_PD, ADDR_PT, ADDR_SN, ADDR_ST, ADDR_SD, CITYL, CITYR, ZIPCODEL, ZIPCODER, STATE, and COUNTY. Uppercased all fields except the original field FULLNAME.
