Title: Miscellaneous Transportation Features Florida

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data

Description:

Abstract:

This GIS data set represents DLG miscellaneous transportation features.

Purpose:

To depict pipelines, transmission lines, and other miscellaneous transportation features in the state of Florida.

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.
Source vintage not known, more current information may be available. User should compare to most recent DLGs.

Process_Description:

The arc coverages of pipelines, transmission lines, and miscellaneous transportation features for each 1:24,000 dlg coverage for the state of Florida were converted to ARC/INFO coverages then mapjoined, cleaned, and built into individual coverages. The coverages were projected to Albers Equal Area projection using ARC/INFO 7.0.3 for the DEC/Alpha. The coverages were inserted tile by tile into the transportation_quad library.
In Spring of '97, the data was converted from NAD27 to HPGN using the projection command within Arc/INFO version 7.0.4.
