Description:
Abstract:
This dataset contains South Florida Water Management District Critical Restoration Projects. This shapefile is an official map of the boundaries of the Critical Restoration Projects.
Purpose:
Maintaining consistency of information sources and products is one of the main objectives of the Critical Restoration strategy. The widespread use of digital formats and modern communications makes it possible to proliferate an unmanageable number of different versions in a short period of time. Data stewardship, centralized tracking and distribution, and improved documentation are some of the preventive measures that data managers will use to insure that consistent versions of high quality data are available to all stakeholders.

A note about data scale:

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>

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Attributes are fully populated and consistently presented. Most of the data is programmatic, such as project codes, contacts, etc. Errors, if present, could be attributed to mis-entries or unrecognized changes in the program details.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
An accuracy assessment is not available, and not particularly relevant for this layer. The CERP project boundary lines and project attribution are updated regularly. The source and quality of the linework is captured in the attribution, so that users are made aware of potential accuracy concerns.
Completeness_Report:
This map of project boundaries is intended to include all known Critical Restoration Projectsthat have a definable spatial extent. An assessment of completeness is not available, but the author is not aware of any errors of omission. This data is continually updated by Land Acquisition as new information becomes available.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The level of accuracy of the linework is captured in the attribute 'level'. For more detail see attributes section overview.

Process_Description:
In 2003, GeoPlan received this data in shapefile format via email from South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The dataset was projected to FGDL Albers HPGN. When received, the data was in StatePlane Florida East (FIPS 0901) NAD_1983 Feet. -Reprojected to FGDL Albers HPGN -Dropped old internal coverage items: cover# and cover id -Converted area and perimeter from feet to meters -Renamed file from BDWMDCRR to SFWMD_RESTORE
