Description:

Abstract:

Geographic Information System (GIS) File for the Designation of Critical Habitat for the St. Andrew beach mouse.

Due to their current, unofficial, draft nature, these GIS files and their associated coordinates are not the definitive source for determining the critical habitat boundaries for Perdido Key beach mice.

Purpose:

Draft proposed determination of critical habitat for St. Andrew beach mouse under court order (Civil No. <ENTER ORDER NUMBER HERE> ).

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: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>

Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.1.0.722

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

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

Logical_Consistency_Report:

These data appear to be logically consistent. No feature errors were identified

Completeness_Report:

The data represents sites with known use by one of the three species of beach mice mapped. Mapped sites were identified based on knowledge of biologists. Ommissions may be possible due to the extnent of coverage and difficulty of surveying all coastal dune areas

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Horizontal accuracy was not tested; however, data was created by digiziting on screen using 1 meter, digital orthophoto quater quads at a view scale of 1:1500 or larger.

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Not Applicable

Process_Description:

Source data were overlayed on 2004 true color digital orthophotos at a view scale of 1:2000 or larger. The source data (Available Habitat for St. Andrew Beach Mouse) was edited to remove identifiable buildings and roads. Vertices of existing linework (sabm_avail_habitat.shp) were manipulated whenever possible to remove non-constituent elements listed above.
