Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Quantitative_Attribute_Accuracy_Assessment:
Attribute_Accuracy_Explanation:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are 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. 1:125000 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. These data are based on interpretation of available information and should not be construed as legally binding.

Process_Description:
Data was downloaded in shapefile format by the GeoPlan Center in 2001 from the from Southwest Florida Water Management District website at http://www.swfwmd.state.fl.us/ data/gis/shape_search.htm. When received, data was in UTM projection, Datum: NAD83, Spheroid: GRS1980, Units: Meters. Data was then reprojected to FGDL Albers HPGN renamed from flrecharge to rcharg and old internal coverage items were dropped.
Process_Date: 2002
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
GeoPlan, during the QA/QC process included the following aspects: 1.) Projected data to FGDL Albers HPGN (See "Map Projection Parameters" below). 2.) DESCRIPT item added based on FRRATE 3.) Dropped old internal coverage items: FLRECHARGE, FLRECHAR_1
