USER NOTES:

The materials/producer listings found in the table are updated once every 24 hours online, this dataset represents a snap shot of the data available for the date of April 20, 2006. What is Geocoding? Geocoding is term used to describe the act of address matching. Geocoding is the process of finding a geographic location (x, y point) for an address (such as street number and name, city, state, and ZIP Code) on a map. Geocoding is based off the typical address scheme for the US, in which one side of the street contains even house numbers while the other side of the street contains odd house numbers. The geocoding process uses an algorithm to find the geographic location of addresses. First, a street segment is identified using the zip code and street name. Next, the geographic location of the address is matched using the building number to determine how far down the street and on which side of the street the building is located. Geocoding Accuracy The locational accuracy of geocoded addresses may vary from urban to rural areas due to the algorithm used to generate the geographic locations of addresses. The algorithm assumes that the size of parcels are equivalent along a road route. This assumption tends to be more consistent in urban areas, where the size of parcels vary less than in rural areas. Consequently, the results of geocoded addresses in urban areas are usually more reliable than those in rural areas. For example, the locational accuracy of rural addresses can be slightly off because some parcels along a rural route may be 15 acres while others may be 2.5 acres, but the geocoding algorithm assumes that the addresses are distributed evenly along the route.

A note concerning data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasetsare 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. 1:250000 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 analyses. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References sectionand the Data Source Contact section of this documentation.

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

The data set was derived from the Florida Department of Transportation State Materials Office from the following webpage: http://www.dot.state.fl.us/statematerialsoffice/quality/programs/ qualitycontrol/materialslistings/postjuly2002.htm The table was originally downloaded in April 2006 as the Asphalt Sources excel table, which was converted to a .dbf The table was Geocoded based on the facilities physical address and the Albers HPGN GDT roads shapefile (gdt_alb2005qt1.shp). Next the following fields were added and calculated. DESCRIPT - Based on the name of the facility. FGDLAQDATE - Based on the date FGDL aquired the data from the source. AUTOID - GeoPlan Center internal feature number. Process Date: 20060420
