Description:
Abstract:
This is a polygon GIS data set representing FWC's five regional districts. Region boundaries extend out to the Submerged Lands Act (SLA) based state waters line. Region divisions are based on 1:24,000 scale county boundaries.
Purpose:
Use region boundaries for graphical purposes as well as some analyses.
Supplemental_Information:
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information. There is a problem with the county line between Manatee and Hillsborough. Linework in the water is arbitrary and may not reflect actual submerged boundaries.
