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

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. For more information regarding scale 
and accuracy, see our web pages at:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
NOTES:   
The polygons and lines are from various sources including 
surveys that  have been submitted as a requirement for purchase.  
Users should check the DIG-SOURCE / COGO-SOURCE 
attributes within the Polygon Attribute Table to determine the
integrity of property boundaries.  The Lands Acquisition Maps 
utilize the "acq_sym" attribute; polygons with no attributes 
or an empty "acq_sym"  field are of no consequence (either 
they are sliver polygons produced during editing, or they are 
parcels no longer in public ownership and/or not targeted for 
acquisition.)

GeoPlan downloaded this dataset from the St. Johns River Water Management District website (http://sjr.state.fl.us/programs/data.html) in April 2005. The data was downloaded in shapefile format and was in the following projection: NAD 1983 HARN UTM Zone 17N. The dataset was projected from NAD 1983 HARN UTM Zone 17N to FGDL Albers HPGN - Upcased all records in the table. - Added a DESCRIPT field based on PARCEL_NAM - Deleted fields SHAPE_AREA and SHAPE_LEN - Added area and perimeter fields - Removed Slivers Process Date: 20050429
