Abstract:
FNAI Underprotected Natural Communities for clip.   FNAI mapped the statewide range of 11 natural community types:  upland glades, pine rocklands, seepage slopes, scrub, sandhill, tropical hardwood hammock, upland hardwood forest, pine flatwoods, dry prairie, coastal uplands, and coastal wetlands. Data has been reprioritized for CLIP.  Depending on the classification system followed, Florida features as many as 81 different natural community types (FNAI 1990).  Many of these community types, particularly wetland communities, are relatively well-represented on existing conservation lands, and therefore are less of a priority for land acquisition than some of Florida's rarest communities that are currently not well-protected.  The 1997 Florida Preservation 2000 Program Remaining Needs and Priorities Report (Brock 1997) identified natural community types that were inadequately represented on conservation lands in Florida.  Since that time, the Office of Environmental Services (OES), Florida Department of Environmental Protection, has regularly reported progress toward protecting additional acres of natural communities through land acquisition.  Based on the OES criteria, a natural community is considered to be inadequately represented on conservation lands if less than 15% of the original extent of that community is currently found on existing conservation lands.
Purpose:
This data layer is intended to map natural communities that are under-represented on existing conservation lands.

Use_Constraints:
1) These data were created using input data consistent with 24,000 to 1:100,000 map scale resolution.  Such data are of sufficient resolution for state and regional scale conservation planning.  They are not appropriate for use in high accuracy mapping applications such as property parcel boundaries, local government comprehensive plans, zoning, DRI, site plans, environmental resource or otheragency permitting, wetland  delineations, or other uses requiring more specific and ground survey quality data.

2) The analysis, maps and data on this website were developed for state and regional conservation planning purposes and are not intended, nor sufficient, to be the basis for local government comprehensive plans, environmental resource or agency permitting decisions.

3) These data are likely to be regularly updated and it is the responsibility of the user to obtain the most recent available version of the database.

4) Data should not be transferred to a third party, in data or map form, without noting these disclaimers.
