FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES CODES AND VALUES:

Item

Item Description





OBJECTID

Internal feature number.
















STATID

Alphanumeric station identifier. The identification number was derived by taking the first three letters of the county in which the spring was located, the date on which the spring was located, and a numeric sequence number for the order in which the spring was located on that day; for example, TAY616991 corresponds to: Taylor County, June 16, 1999, spring number 1.
















STATLOC

Station location, generally the spring name.
















STYPE

Spring Type.




S = Spring

SPRG_MAG

Spring Magnitude. Springs are classified using a discharge rating system devised by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in 1927. The system relates the discharge to a range of magnitudes (Table 2). Discharge is measured in cubic feet per second (cfs) and is reported in millions of gallons per day (mgd).




1 = 100 cfs or more (64 mgd)

2 = 10 - 100 cfs (6.4-64 mgd)

3 = 1 - 10 cfs (0.64-6.4 mgd)

4 = 0.1 - 1 cfs (0.064-0.64 mgd)













DESCRIPT

Description field based on STATLOC.
















FGDLAQDATE

Date GeoPlan acquired data.
















SHAPE

Feature geometry.
















AUTOID

Unique ID added by GeoPlan

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: 








Data was obtained by GeoPlan via electronic mail attachment in the 
following projection:
NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Florida_North_FIPS_0903_Feet,
Lambert_Conformal_Conic.

- Reprojected to the FGDL Albers HPGN Projection.
- Renamed file from SPRSRWMD24 to SPRINGS_SRWMD.
- AREA and PERIMETER were deleted.
- Deleted SPRSWMD25 because it contained the same data as SPRSWMD24.
- Deleted RIVEMILE, GAGETYPE, DATBEG, DATEND due to a lack of
  data in those fields.
- DESCRIPT field was added based on STATLOC.
- FGDLAQDATE field was added to denote date GeoPlan obtained data.
- Upcased all fields.
Process Date: 20070521


Data imported to ArcSDE and exported as a shapefile.
