TITLE: COMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT TRACKING FACILITIES - OCTOBER 2014

Geodataset Name:       COMET_OCT14
Geodataset Type:       SHAPEFILE
Geodataset Feature:    Point
Feature Count:         240683
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Statewide coverage of Compliance & Enforcement Tracking (COMET) Facilities. The COMET database contains inspection data for all solid waste facilities. The contaminated sites in this dataset are generally the contiguous lands (property) associated with known contamination area(s). However, if a site is a very large parcel that contains multiple contamination locations each of which is being independently assessed and remediated, these individual contamination sites may have unique individual Site and Project records if that is needed to facilitate the management of the cleanup efforts.

A variety of methods were used for collecting location information for records
in this dataset.  See the field METHOD for determination method.

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. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability
of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited
to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using,
modifying, contributing or distributing the materials.

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

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
Inception of scripted refresh process.  Information is pulled from regulatory 
database daily.
Process Date: 07/09/99

Lat/long fields were added to the SDE layer at the request of Ruth McLemore-Price in the Central District for cleanup purposes. Process Date: 04/26/01
Pull scripts modified to reflect table, view and column name changes due to migration of databases to agency web-compliant naming standards. Process Date: 01/14/02
Pull scripts modified to allow greater precision during location calculations and to assume NULL values as NAD83. Process Date: 12/12/02
This dataset was received by the GeoPlan Center via ftp on 10/3/2014. The data was originally in a geodatabase. The geodatabase was exported to shapefile. When received the data set was in the following projection: Albers NAD 83 HARN. This dataset is updated daily. Contact the FDEP for the most recent data. The dataset has a number of points located outside the boundaries of Florida and in bodies of water. As these points are reviewed they should be corrected by FDEP over time. - Added the field DESCRIPT based on NAME. - Added the field FGDLAQDATE based on date downloaded from source. - Upcased all text in the attribute table. - Data set was renamed comet_oct14 from COMET Process Date: 20141003
