GeoData Disclaimer
DEP has not confirmed the accuracy of all the spatial data contained in its databases. Users
of this data should therefore do so at their own risk. In addition, a similar disclaimer should
accompany any redistribution or reproduction of this data. Data is provided on an "as is" basis.
Information about the availability of specific layers may be obtained by contacting the BIS-GIS
section at 850-245-8238/SC 205-8238. Data will be distributed as WinZip archives of ESRI
shapefiles. Metadata documentation is included with each WinZipped shapefile and is available
for every dataset available for download. The primary means of distribution is via the
Department's FTP site, located at
ftp://ftp.dep.state.fl.us/pub/gis/data.
The file names are meant to be as descriptive as possible. However, if you have difficulty,
please consult the directory or contact any of us in the section.
Special accommodations may be made for requestors with limited or no available access
to the FTP site. In those cases, media type will be 8mm-tape, CDROM or 3.5 diskette. Tapes may
be created in low or medium density format (2GB, 5GB, or 14GB). Applicable media charges may be
applied if the medium is not replaced or provided by the requestor.
All data are provided in the FDEP custom Albers projection in the HPGN datum. The
projection parameters are as follows:
|
| 24 00 00 |
|
First Standard Parallel |
| 31 30 00 |
Second Standard Parallel |
| -84 00 00 |
Central Meridian |
| 24 00 00 |
Latitude of Origin |
| 400000 |
False Easting (meters) |
| 0 |
False Northing (meters) |
|
If you need to work with the data in a different projection, please see
Reprojecting DEP Data.
Currently, data are available as statewide layers, with the exception of landuse/landcover
and SSURGO soils datasets processed from the five Water Management Districts (WMDs). These
regional data layers correspond to WMD boundaries. No customized clipping or joining will be
performed.
