Abstract:
This geodatabase contains LiDAR generated 2-foot contours. Data is distributed in FGDL by county and vendor. Currently, contours are available via FGDL for the following nine counties: Broward, Dade, Duval, Glades, Martin, Monroe, Okeechocbee, Palm Beach, St. Lucie. Three vendors, Ch2mHill, CDM and Merrick, created the contours for the above counties. This metadata represents a generic metadata for all vendors. After downloading data from FGDL, please see the individual metadata associated with the data for vendor specific process steps.
Purpose:
Contours consistent with the deliverables and including a certain level of smoothing. Index, Intermediate, Depression, and Low Confidence contours are coded.

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Data was verified for correct topology (no intersections, overlaps or dangles.
Completeness_Report:
A visual qualitative assessment was performed to ensure data completeness.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: n/a
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The contours inherit the accuracy of the LiDAR dataset they were acquired from. A complete assessment of the vertical accuracy is available in the Minimum Technical Standard (MTS report) "Final Report of Specific Purpose LiDAR Survey-LiDAR-Generated Breaklines and Contours" submitted to Florida Division of Emergency Management.
Quantitative_Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Value: 0.3 ft
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation:
This value exceeds the NSSDA standard for one-foot (1') interval contours This was for the entire HHD dataset

Process_Description:
GeoPlan received this data via hard drive from Jones Edmunds on 8/27/09. When received the data was in a series of file geodatabases. The data was merged into 1 file geodatabase and clipped to the appropriate county boundary. The feature class was then projected from NAD83 HARN State Plane East - feet to Albers HPGN.
-Added SOURCE field -Added FGDLAQDATE field based on date GeoPlan acquired data from source -Changed name from to TOPO2FT_VENDOR_COUNTY

Resource_Description: DOWNLOADABLE DATA
Distribution_Liability:
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. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using, modifying, contributing or distributing the materials.
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>
