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 SPRUSGS24 to SPRINGS_SRWMD_USGS.
- AREA and PERIMETER were deleted.
- CO, MAGNITUDE, POLYGONID, SCALE, and ANGLE were deleted
  due to lack of data in those fields.
- SPRUSGS241 and SPRINGS_I were deleted because they contained
  the same data as SPRINGS_SRWMD_USGS24_.
- Deleted special characters and spaces that appeared in front of spring
  names.
- DESCRIPT field was added based on SITE_NAME.
- FGDLAQDATE field was added to denote when GeoPlan obtained data.
- Upcased all fields.
Process Date: 20070628


Data imported to ArcSDE and exported as a shapefile.
