FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES:

Datafile Name: LU_SF_WTLNDS_16

FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES CODES AND VALUES:

Item	Item Description
OBJECTID	Internal feature number.
SHAPE	Feature geometry.
FLUCCS	The land use and land cover classification code as defined in the Florida DOT's FLUCCS classification system. The following represents the original field from the source Water Management District layer. SFWMD = LANDUSE_CODE - The primary classification type assignment. This may be either a land use classification or a land cover classification in the case that keys to identification indicate a physiographic feature.
OTHER	The following represents the original field from the source Water Management District Layer. SFWMD = LANDCOVER_CODE - A secondary classification assigned to account for the fact that any given polygon may have more than one use or a use and a physiographic cover.
LANDUSE_DE	[LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION] Florida land use land cover code description.
LANDCOV_DE	[LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION] Florida land use land cover code description.
LANDUSE_YR	[LANDUSE_YEAR] The year that the land use data represents.
PLANNING_R	[PLANNING_REGION] The planning region that the area is within.
AERIAL_DAT	[AERIAL_DATE] The date the aerial used to identify land use was taken.
SOURCE	Water Management District of Coverage/Origin. SFWMD field [WATER_MANAGEMENT_DISTRICT].
SOURCE2	Other contributing source.
FLUCCS_L1	The highest level (level 1) designation in a hierarchical coding scheme containing 4 levels. The following represents the original field from the source Water Management District Layer.
LEVEL1	Level 1 land use description, based on the FDOT classification schema.
FLUCCS_L2	The second highest level (level 2) designation in a hierarchical coding scheme containing 4 levels. The following represents the original field from the source Water Management District Layer.
LEVEL2	Level 2 land use description, based on the FDOT classification schema.
FLUCCS_L3	The third highest level (level 3) designation in a hierarchical coding scheme containing 4 levels. The following represents the original field from the source Water Management District Layer.
LEVEL3	Level 3 land use description, based on the FDOT classification schema. There is a possibility that the FDOT Level 3 description does not match that of the Water Management District, for those occurrences this discrepancy has been identified in the FLUCCSCOMP field.
FLUCCSCOMP	A value of 1 in this field indicates a difference when comparing the FLUCCS code description to the FDOT FLUCCS code description.
ACRES	Number of Acres.
DESCRIPT	Based on the field LANDUSE_DE.
FGDLAQDATE	The date FGDL acquired the data from the Source.
AUTOID	Unique ID added by GeoPlan
SHAPE.AREA	Area in meters
SHAPE.LEN	Perimeter in meters

USER NOTES:

This data is provided 'as is'. GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the original data layer's topology

This data is provided 'as is' by GeoPlan and is complete to our knowledge.

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

This dataset represents the Land Cover and Land Use for 2014-2016 within the boundaries of the SFWMD and supports various missions of the District. This data is now complete.

This data is provided 'as is' and its horizontal positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

This data is provided 'as is' and its vertical positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

This dataset is made available to the public in response to the Florida Public Records Law, Florida Statutes, Chapter 119. Any information, including but not limited to software and data, received from the South Florida Water Management District ("DISTRICT") is provided "AS IS"; without warranty of any kind, and the District expressly disclaims all express and implied warranties, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. The entire risk as to the results and performance of any information obtained from the District is entirely assumed by the recipient. Acknowledgement of South Florida Water Management District would be appreciated in products derived from this data. The positional accuracy of the 2009 data meets USGS NMAS for 1:12000 scale maps, providing a foundation for 2014-2016 updates. During feature updates, map scale was set between 1:7,000 to 12,000.

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.

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.

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

Land Cover Land Use data was updated from 2008-09 LCLU by photo-interpretation from 2014-16 aerial photography and classified using the SFWMD modified FLUCCS classification system. Features were interpreted from the county-based aerial photography (4 in - 2 ft pixel) and updated on screen from the 2008-09 vector data. Horizontal accuracy of the data corresponds to the positional accuracy of the county aerial photography. The minimum mapping unit for classification was 0.5 acres for wetlands and 5 acres for uplands. Process Date: 20180720 SFWMD Created Metadata. Process Date: 20181107 The GeoPlan Center downloaded the original dataset: SFWMD Land Cover Land Use 2014-2016 From the South Florida Water Management District Open Data Portal website on January 11th, 2019. https://geo-sfwmd.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/sfwmd-land-cover-land-use-2014-2016 SFWMD_Land_Cover_Land_Use_20142016.zip SFWMD_Land_Cover_Land_Use_20142016.shp Renamed dataset to LU_SFWMD_2016.shp The dataset was originally in the following projection GCS_WGS_1984 Angular Unit: Degree (0.017453292519943295) Prime Meridian: Greenwich (0.000000000000000000) Datum: D_WGS_1984 Spheroid: WGS_1984 Semimajor Axis: 6378137.000000000000000000 Semiminor Axis: 6356752.314245179300000000 Inverse Flattening: 298.257223563000030000 GeoPlan reprojected the dataset to Albers Conical Equal Area [Florida Geographic Data Library] Using the following Transformation: WGS_1984_(ITRF00)_To_NAD_1983 + NAD_1983_To_HARN_Florida Below is the original SFWMD file structure: ITEM NAME SHAPE OBJECTID LANDUSE_CODE LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_1_LANDUSE_CODE LEVEL_1_LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_2_LANDUSE_CODE LEVEL_2_LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_3_LANDUSE_CODE LEVEL_3_LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_4_LANDUSE_CODE LEVEL_4_LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION LANDCOVER_CODE LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_1_LANDCOVER_CODE LEVEL_1_LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_2_LANDCOVER_CODE LEVEL_2_LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_3_LANDCOVER_CODE LEVEL_3_LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION LEVEL_4_LANDCOVER_CODE LEVEL_4_LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION WATER_MANAGEMENT_DISTRICT LANDUSE_YEAR PLANNING_REGION AERIAL_DATE Below is the crosswalk table between the original file structure and the new file structure: ORIGINAL NAME --> NEW NAME LANDUSE_CODE --> FLUCCS LANDUSE_DESCRIPTION --> LANDUSE_DE LANDCOVER_CODE --> OTHER LANDCOVER_DESCRIPTION --> LANDCOVER_DE WATER_MANAGEMENT_DISTRICT --> SOURCE LANDUSE_YEAR --> LANDUSE_YR PLANNING_REGION --> PLANNING_R AERIAL_DATE --> AERIAL_DAT Additionally GeoPlan added and populated the following fields: SOURCE SOURCE2 FLUCCS_L1 LEVEL1 FLUCCS_L2 LEVEL2 FLUCCS_L3 LEVEL3 FLUCCSCOMP DESCRIPT FGDLAQDATE Ran the repair geometry tool.
