- Abstract:
-
This dataset contains Fire Stations in Florida. Any location where fire fighters are stationed or based out of, or where equipment that such personnel use in carrying out their jobs is stored for ready use. This dataset was created by TechniGraphics, Inc. for the Florida Division of Emergency Management. This is an update to the FGDL layer FDEM_FIREDEPT_AUG07.shp
- Purpose:
-
Homeland Security
Use Cases: Use cases describe how the data may be used and help to define
and clarify requirements.
1. An assessment of whether or not the total fire fighting capability in a given area
is adequate.
2. A list of resources to draw upon by surrounding areas when local resources
have temporarily been overwhelmed by a disaster - route analysis can determine
those entities that are able to respond the quickest.
3. A resource for Emergency Management planning purposes.
4. A resource for catastrophe response to aid in the retrieval of equipment by
outside responders in order to deal with the disaster.
5. A resource for situational awareness planning and response for Federal
Government events.

Fire Departments not having a permanent location are included, in which case
their location has been depicted at the city/town hall or at the center of their
service area if a city/town hall does not exist. This dataset includes those
locations primarily engaged in forest or grasslands fire fighting, including fire
lookout towers if the towers are in current use for fire protection purposes. This
dataset includes both private and governmental entities. Fire fighting training
academies are also included. Any location where fire fighters are stationed or
based out of, or where equipment that such personnel use in carrying out their
jobs is stored for ready use. Fire Departments not having a permanent location are
included, in which case their location has been depicted at the city/town hall or at
the center of their service area if a city/town hall does not exist. This dataset
includes those locations primarily engaged in forest or grasslands fire fighting,
including fire lookout towers if the towers are in current use for fire protection
purposes. This dataset includes both private and governmental entities. Fire
fighting training academies are also included. This dataset is comprised completely
of license free data. The Fire Station dataset and the EMS dataset were merged
into one working file. TGS processed as one file and then separated for delivery
purposes. Records with "-DOD" appended to the end of the [NAME] value are
located on a military base, as defined by the Defense Installation Spatial Data
Infrastructure (DISDI) military installations and military range boundaries. Text fields
in this dataset have been set to all upper case to facilitate consistent database
engine search results. All diacritics (e.g., the German umlaut or the Spanish tilde)
have been replaced with their closest equivalent English character to facilitate
use with database systems that may not support diacritics. The currentness of this
dataset is indicated by the [CONTDATE] field. Based upon this field, the oldest
record dates from 03/22/2005 and the newest record dates from 08/27/2008.

- Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
-
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within
the original data.
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
-
See "Attribute_Accuracy_Report". Many of the checks described in that
section check for both attribute accuracy and logical consistency.
- Completeness_Report:
-
Administrative Locations: Locations that serve only an administrative function
(e.g., a business office) are intended to be excluded from this dataset. Locations
that serve both an administrative function as well as an operational function are
included in the dataset.
- Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
The geographic location of entities was verified to be correct relative to the
street data and version indicated by the [ST_VENDOR] and [ST_VERSION]
fields. The horizontal accuracy is indicated by the [GEOPREC] field. A value of
"BLOCKFACE" indicates the entity was geocoded on the correct street segment
(block) and correct side of the street. A value of "ONENTITY" indicates that the
location is on the entity's facility, as determined by USGS DOQQ imagery, and that
it is on the correct street segment (block) and correct side of the street. Entities that
are part of a larger institution (e.g., University Campus or Military Base) with
"BLOCKFACE" precision may be located at the main entrance to the larger institution.
Records with "-DOD" appended to the end of the [NAME] value are located on a
military base, as defined by the Defense Installation Spatial Data Infrastructure (DISDI)
military installations and military range boundaries.
Fire Departments not having a permanent location are depicted at the city/town hall or
at the center of the town or service area if a city/town hall does not exist.

- Process_Description:
-
1) The Fire Station dataset and the EMS dataset were merged into one working
file. TGS processed as one file and then separated for delivery purposes.
2) Entities were processed to determine or verify their name, physical address,
city, state, five (5) digit zip code, phone number, and geospatial location.
Entities that were contacted were also asked if they provided fire protection
services, EMS services, or both. Entities not located on military bases were contacted
and asked to describe their location relative to landmarks in reference data
(mainly streets) and features visible in ortho imagery. A phone number was not available
for some entities, so their information was verified using other verbal contacts made
through a telephone call.
3) Due to a request made by the Department of Defense, TGS made every
effort to not contact military bases starting 03/27/2007 and ending 05/28/2008.
During this time, entities located on military bases were verified through alternate
resources, such as maps and ortho imagery. These records have not been
contacted by TGS, and therefore, do not have directions.
4) All text fields were set to all upper case.
5) Leading and trailing spaces were trimmed from all text fields.
6) Non printable and diacritic characters were removed from all text fields.

GeoPlan Center received the data via FTP from the
Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) on November 26, 2009.
The original dataset was named:
2008_09_19_FL_FireStations.zip
2008_09_19_FL_FireStations.shp
The original dataset projection was:

Denominator_of_Flattening_Ratio: 298.257224
The dataset was renamed to:
fdem_firedept_sep08.shp
The dataset was reprojected to the FGDL Albers NAD83 HARN projection.
The dataset features were matched to their 1-kilometer United States National Grid (USNG)
address via a spatial join, the USNG address can be found in the USNG_FL_1K field.
The USNG is an alpha-numeric reference system based on the UTM coordinate system
and is similar to the Military Grid Reference System. Use of the USNG ensures a
uniform grid mapping and positional reporting system for search and rescue,
emergency planning, response, and recovery.
How to Read a United States National Grid (USNG) Spatial Address
<http://www.fgdc.gov/usng/how-to-read-usng/index_html>
Three additional fields were added.
DESCRIPT field based on NAME
FGDLAQDATE field based on the date the data was acquired by FGDL from the source.
AUTOID field based on FID + 1, GeoPlan Center feature identification number.
Finally the attribute table was upper-cased and the metadata was updated.

Physical street address for entity. "PO Box", "General Delivery", "Rural Route", and "Highway Contract" addresses are not considered physical addresses and should not appear in this field. Some areas do not have regular city style addressing, so entities in those areas may not have a street number. In such cases, the name of the road on which they are located is listed in this field. Some rural areas may not have named roads. In these rare cases, this field will be blank.

- Attribute_Label: CITY
- Attribute_Definition:
-
The name of the city associated with the entity's physical address. For physical addresses that the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) delivers to, this should be a "city" acceptable to the USPS as defined in their Address Information System (AIS). Sometimes the USPS does not deliver mail to a physical address but recognizes the location (i.e., they list the location as "undeliverable"). The cities associated with these locations are acceptable. In some cases, the USPS does not recognize individual physical addresses in a city, rather, they list the city as having "General Delivery". In these cases, the city and associated zip code are acceptable (the entity's [ADDRESS] field will contain a street address, not "general delivery"). The entity may not actually be located within the city limits of the "city" specified in its [CITY] field. Instead, it may actually be located within the city limits of another city. In some cases, the "city" that appears in this field may not even be a city in an administrative sense, but it is still an acceptable "city" to the USPS. An example of this is "Notre Dame, IN". There is no city in Indiana called "Notre Dame", but this is considered an acceptable city by the USPS for any delivery going to the University of Notre Dame which is actually located in the city of South Bend. "Notre Dame", like most USPS cities, is an easily recognized place, and it gives the user of the data a good general idea of where the entity is located (if the entity is located in a small municipality, the USPS "city" may be more recognizable than the name of the municipality), and it would be part of the address one would use to send a shipment to the entity's location. Using the USPS acceptable "city" also allows someone to do a logical consistency check between the zip code and the city by using the USPS AIS.
Sometimes an entity may report a city that is not accepted by the USPS, and although TGS has tried to replace those cities with an acceptable alternative, some of them may remain in this dataset.

-
- Attribute_Label: STATE
- Attribute_Definition:
-
Two (2) character abbreviation for state associated with the entity's physical address. In almost all cases, this is the same as the state where the entity has been depicted geospatially. However, there are cases, particularly where an entity is part of a larger facility that cuts across state lines, where the entity's location may be depicted in a state other than the one indicated in this field. Also, the state in which an entity appears to be located may change depending on the scale of the state boundary theme being used.

NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) Description for entity. The "Index Entries" that appear on the NAICS webpage (<http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html>) are being used to populate this field, as opposed to the "NAICS Title". While there is a one to one correspondence between NAICS Codes and "NAICS Titles", there is a one to many relationship between NAICS Codes and the "Index Entries". By using the "Index Entries", we have placed the entities that make up this layer into more specific categories; however, the user of this data should be aware that this was not the intended purpose of these "Index Entries". The "Index Entries" were intended as a way to search the NAICS database and as a way of enumerating ways in which establishments falling under the given NAICS Code may be named. Thus, there are often two or more "Index Entries" that are synonyms, for example: "Prisons" and "Penitentiaries". In cases like this, we have standardized on one "Index Entry".
NAICS Descriptions (and NAICS Codes) have been assigned based upon the entity's primary function, regardless of if that is the function that qualified it to be included in this dataset.

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:
