Description:
Abstract:
This dataset includes buildings occupied by the headquarters of cabinet level state government executive departments, legislative offices buildings outside of the capitol building, offices and court rooms associated with the highest level of the judicial branch of the state government, and large multi-agency state office buildings. Because the research to create this data was primarily keyed off of the headquarters of cabinet level state government agencies, some state office buildings that don't house a headquarters for such an agency may have been excluded.
Intentionally excluded from this dataset are government run institutions (e.g. schools, colleges, prisons, and libraries). Also excluded are state capitol buildings.
State owned or leased buildings whose primary purpose is not to house state offices have also been intentionally excluded from this dataset. Examples of these include "Salt Domes", "Park Shelters", and "Highway Garages".
All entities that have been verified to have no building name, have had their [NAME] attribute set to "NO NAME". If the record in the original source data had no building name and TGS was unable to verify the building name, the [NAME] attribute was set to "UNKNOWN".
All phone numbers in this dataset have been verified by TGS to be the main phone for the building. If the building was verified not to have a main phone number, the [AREA] and [PHONE] fields have been left blank.
The 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] attribute. Based upon this attribute, the oldest record dates from 2007/11/30 and the newest record dates from 2007/12/06.
This dataset was created by TechniGraphics, Inc. for the Florida Division of Emergency Management.
Purpose:
Homeland Security

Use Cases: Use cases describe how the data may be used and help to define and clarify requirements.

1) There has been a natural or manmade disaster, such as a hurricane or earthquake. An assessment of what State property may be affected, and what State services may be impacted needs to be made.

2) There is a predicted natural disaster, such as a hurricane. An assessment of what State property, personnel and services might be in the disaster's predicted footprint or path needs to be made. Preparations need to be made to evacuate personnel, secure property, and arrange for alternate methods of delivering the critical services that may be affected.

3) There has been a terrorist threat against State property and/or personnel. Steps need to be taken to identify what is being threatened, counter the threat, and protect threatened personnel and property. Additional property may be impacted due to its proximity to the threatened property, or the threat may contain only a general spatial reference, and the spatial component of this dataset may need to be used to identify the threatened property.

Critical Facilities
To assist in emergency response and planning, the GIS Lab, working with local, state, and federal agencies maintains shelters, emergency operations centers, critical facilities, and hazardous material facilities datasets.
"Critical facilities" are defined as those structures from which essential services and functions for victim survival, continuation of public safety actions, and disaster recovery are performed or provided. Shelters, emergency operation centers, public health, public drinking water, sewer and wastewater facilities are examples of critical facilities. Though not explicitly included in the definition, supporting life-line infrastructure essential to the mission of critical facilities must also be included in the inventory when appropriate.
"Critical infrastructure" is defined as those systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital that the incapacity or destruction of such systems and assets would have a debilitating impact on security, economy, public health or safety, or any combination of these elements.
The domain of the GIS Lab is specifically related to "critical facilities", while working closely with Florida's Regional Domestic Security Task Forces to ensure a safe and secure Florida.
Several critical facilities data layers are maintained by other agencies, and the GIS Lab works closely with these agencies to make sure updated data is readily available. Examples include:
* Drinking Water Facilities - Florida Department of Environmental Protection * Environmental Health Facilities - Florida Department of Health * Fire Stations - Florida State Fire Marshal * Health Care Facilities - Agency for Health Care Administration * Petroleum Storage Tanks - Florida Department of Environmental Protection * Schools - Florida Department of Education * Solid Waste Facilities - Florida Department of Environmental Protection
Other data layers, like Hazardous Materials Facilities, Mobile Home Parks, and Hotel/Motels, while not specifically critical facilities, are facilities of interest for emergency managers, and the GIS Lab is also actively involved in facilitating access to these data layers.
Homeland Security Infrastructure Program
The Homeland Security Infrastructure Program (HSIP) is a collection of base map layers and homeland security related geospatial data. Currently, the emphasis of this program is on sharing and improving data to create uniform state & federal information. Working with contractors, the GIS Lab is providing data from state and local sources for QA/QC under the HSIP Freedom project.

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: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data.
For entities that were contacted, the name, address, city, state, and five (5) digit zip codes were verified to be correct as of the date indicated by the [CONTDATE] attribute. The existence of the entity was also verified, as well as whether or not it met the criteria for inclusion in this dataset. Four (4) digit zip code extensions were derived from USPS (United States Postal Service) data and were not verified.
ID Check: The [ID] attribute is not blank and all IDs are unique.
Coordinate Check: Coordinates are not null or zero and the x and y fields match the shape.
Basic Address Check: Physical addresses were verified to be non blank and to not be a "PO Box", "General Delivery", "Highway Contract", or "Rural Route" address.
Highway Address without Type Check: Physical addresses containing the word "Highway" or "Route" were verified to also contain a type designator such as "State", "US", or "County", if one actually exists for the highway or route. These type designators are often missing from addresses, leading to confusion if more than one "Highway" of the given number exists in an area.
Basic Name Check: Entity name is not blank, is not the same as entity city, and has a minimum of 2 characters. Name does not contain punctuation characters that can interfere with database operations, such as " (quote) and * (asterisk).
Basic Phone Check: All phone numbers (including the area code) are ten (10) numeric digits. Alphabetic characters have been converted to the corresponding numeric digit.
City Check: Entity city is not blank and is found in the named places file within 25 miles.
County FIPS to State Compare Check: The county represented by the tabular FIPS Code attribute is actually in the state specified by the state attribute.
County Name to State Compare Check: The county represented by the tabular county name attribute is actually in the state specified by the state attribute.
Phone Number Format Check: Phone numbers (including area code) were verified to be formatted as nnn-nnn-nnnn.
NPA_NXX Check: Area codes (sometimes called "Number Planning Areas", or NPA's) and central office codes (sometimes known as exchanges, or NXX's) were validated against data from the North American Number Planning Administration (NANPA). In some cases, NPA-NXX combinations did not show up in the NANPA data but were verified to work.
Area Code Distance Check: Area code (NPA) is valid and is within its area code boundary.
Zip Code Check: The zip code is five (5) or nine (9) numeric digits, is listed in the postal database, is in the same state as indicated by the entity's [STATE] attribute, and is not a PO Box only zip code.
Zip City Check: The entity's zip code and its city were verified to match according to the USPS Address Information System (AIS).
Collocation Check: Entities with different addresses must not share the exact same geospatial location.
Geographic Spell Check: Words that appear in the entity name were checked against a standard English word list (and Spanish word list for entities in Puerto Rico). Words not appearing in these standard word lists were then checked against names appearing in the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) of geographic features that are located within 25 miles of the entity. Proper names were manually reviewed for correct spelling.
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:
This dataset includes buildings occupied by the headquarters of cabinet level state government executive departments, legislative offices buildings outside of the capitol building, offices and court rooms associated with the highest level of the judicial branch of the state government, and large multi-agency state office buildings. Because the research to create this data was primarily keyed off of the headquarters of cabinet level state government agencies, some state office buildings that don't house a headquarters for such an agency may have been excluded.
Initially, excluded from this dataset are government run institutions (e.g. schools, colleges, prisons, and libraries). Also excluded are state capitol buildings.
State owned or leased buildings whose primary purpose is not to house state offices have also been intentionally excluded from this dataset. Examples of these include "Salt Domes", "Park Shelters", and "Highway Garages".
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The geographic location of contacted entities was verified to be correct relative to the street data and version indicated by the [ST_VENDOR] and [ST_VERSION] attributes. The horizontal accuracy is indicated by the [GEOPREC] attribute. A value of "BLOCKFACE" indicates the entity was geocoded on the correct 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 is on the correct 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.

Spatial and Attribute Information
This was used as a source for State owned or leased buildings in the United States.
The basic attribution (name, address, city, state, zip code, and telephone number) came from this dataset, unless the entity was updated by TGS during this processing. For entities that were previously manually processed by TGS, their geospatial information was used as a reference when automatically determining their location relative to the latest streets.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
TGS 2007 Q4 Processing
1) Verified name, physical address, and phone numbers by contacting the entity or an authority responsible for the entity.
2) Determined or verified the geospatial location for the entity through contact with entity or authority responsible for entity. Entities were asked to describe their geospatial location relative to land marks visible in ortho imagery.
3) During Pinpointing, TGS technicians looked for additional entitles to add to the dataset based upon the locations of the headquarters of cabinet level state agencies.
4) Every entity Pinpointed during this update was reviewed by a TGS QC Technician. QC technicians are trained to look for inconsistencies within the data and between the data and reference sources, such as ortho imagery. Where inconsistencies exist, the TGS QC technician re-verified the information by contacting the entity.
5) All of the entities that were Pinpointed during this update were examined as an aggregate (i.e., not every record was examined individually) by a TGS QC2 technician. The automated checks described above and in the Attribute_Accuracy_Report were used to find any inconsistencies that remained in the data. If necessary, information was re-verified.
6) County name and county FIPS codes were assigned through a spatial join.
7) Four (4) digit United States Postal Service (USPS) zip code extensions were assigned based upon the USPS Address Information System (AIS).
8) All text fields were set to all upper case.
9) Leading and trailing spaces were trimmed from all text fields.
10) Non printable and diacritic characters were removed from all text fields.

Process_Description:
GeoPlan Center received the data via FTP from the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) on March 18, 2008. The original dataset was named: 2008_02_13_FL_State_Government_Buildings.shp
The original dataset projection was: Spatial_Reference_Information: Horizontal_Coordinate_System_Definition: Geographic: Latitude_Resolution: 0.000000 Longitude_Resolution: 0.000000 Geographic_Coordinate_Units: Decimal degrees Geodetic_Model: Horizontal_Datum_Name: D_WGS_1984 Ellipsoid_Name: WGS_1984 Semi-major_Axis: 6378137.000000 Denominator_of_Flattening_Ratio: 298.257224
The dataset was renamed to: fdem_stgovbld_feb08.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.

Attribute:
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] attribute 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 attribute 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:
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 attribute. Also, the state in which an entity appears to be located may change depending on the scale of the state boundary theme being used.

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: NAICSDESCR
Attribute_Definition:
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 attribute 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 the function that qualified it to be included in this dataset.
