- Abstract:
-
Outstanding Florida Waters, (OFW), are waters designated worthy of special protection because of their natural attributes. This special designation is applied to certain waters, and is intended to protect and maintain existing acceptable quality standards. The OFW layer is a GIS spatial dataset that represents the OFW boundaries throughout the state of Florida. This project involves adding new data to and modifying existing data within the OFW data layer for better accuracy and representation. Boundaries for Outstanding Florida Waters (OFWs) as described in Section 62-302.700, F.A.C. This layer includes all three types of OFWs: OFW Aquatic Preserves, Special OFWs, and Other OFWs. This is an update to the FGDL layer OFW_OTHER_OCT18.
- Purpose:
-
The legislature of the State of Florida established a category of surface
water features called "Outstanding Florida Waters" that are to be protected
from any degradation from their current water quality classification. A description
of the water features eligible for inclusion as an OFW and a list of currently
established OFWs is contained in Section 62-302.700, F.A.C., (Attachment 4).
Additionally, "Waters" are defined in Section 403.031, F.S., as "... rivers, lakes,
streams, springs, impoundments, and wetlands ... including fresh, brackish, saline,
tidal, surface, and underground waters." Chapter 62-340, F.A.C., "Delineation
of the Landward Extent of Wetlands and Surface Waters" details the plants
and soil types that indicate the existence of wetland or surface water, under
authority granted in Section 373.421, F.S. Most of the OFWs are contained
within the boundaries of publicly-owned lands managed for conservation
and/or recreation so that the extent of the water features that are protected
can be defined by the legal boundary of the park, recreation area, preserve,
or other publicly-owned property. Three categories of OFWs do not have
boundaries so described: 1) the three river segments designated as wild
and scenic under the Florida Scenic and Wild Rivers Program, federal Wild
and Scenic Rivers Act and the Myakka River Wild and Scenic Designation
and Preservation Act; 2) the 16 streams or lakes in the National Forests,
and 3) the 56 streams and lakes defined as Special Waters. As a portion
of an Environmental Protection Agency Wetland Protection grant, a separate
project to reduce the boundaries of the OFWs to a digital format was
undertaken by the FDEP. Some digital data existed and was compiled
from many different source formats and scales. These data were incorporated
into a statewide coverage but because of the lack of documentation and
concerns about accuracy, other approaches were investigated to improve
portions of the data. Other divisions within the FDEP have felt the need
to develop digital coverages for the State-owned or managed properties
they oversee and are in the process of reducing the legal descriptions on
deeds into a digital form by interpreting and transferring the legal description
to a quad sheet or using one or another of the COGO (COordinate GeOmetry)
systems. These lands include the Aquatic Preserves and the State Park
boundaries. Where possible, to minimize duplication of effort, the Division
of Environmental Permitting either acquired the boundaries already created
for the Aquatic Preserves, or entered into a joint venture to create boundaries
for the 145 lands managed by the Division of Parks and Recreation.

This dataset should not be considered a complete and comprehensive
representation. The Special Waters boundaries are provisional. Until we
receive full funding to finalize this data, we will coordinate with our field
staff to evaluate the boundaries, record needed changes, and make the
appropriate adjustments to the boundaries as an on-going programmatic
effort. These boundaries are stored in the OFWspec data layer. Aquatic
Preserve information is available in two different versions. This version
contains APs listed as OFWs. Aquatic Preserve information is also available
in the Aquatic Preserves layers maintained by DEP/CAMA. Currently, all
aquatic preserves are also Outstanding Florida Waters (OFWs). This was
not the case in the past and may change again in the future, but an Aquatic
Preserve was dropped. It's important to note that there are three aquatic
preserves whose OFW boundaries differ from the aquatic preserve boundary.
These are described more specifically in the OFW rule 62-302.700: Indian
River Malabar to Vero expansion - does not include portions of Sebastian
and Turkey Creeks; Wekiva River - does not include portions of the St.
Johns River; and Big Bend - the OFW rule specifies certain "incorporated
and unincorporated areas that are excluded."

OFW Aquatic Preserves Category: Aquatic Preserve boundaries were
created by the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI)/CAMRA. We
are using these boundaries to represent the OFWs that are also designated
Aquatic Preserves Special OFW Category : The streams and lakes that
do not have defined legal boundaries were automated using methods other
than transferring legal descriptions into a digital format. Because of the
interpretive nature of the boundaries for the Special Waters Category, we
have avoided making any implication that this line represents the ordinary
high water line that separates the State-owned lands from privately-owned
lands by referring to this line as a fuzzy boundary or trip wire. Final determinations
of these boundaries will require on-site inspections or aerial photo-interpretations
coupled with field verifications and will not be carried out for any of the streams
and lakes designated as OFWs, in the short term. These interpretive boundaries
were designed to alert persons making land use decisions that on-site inspections
or further investigations by qualified soils scientists or botanists may be necessary.
These interpretive boundaries are necessary because if a proposed activity falls
within or near an OFW boundary, different, more stringent permitting review standards
are imposed on the permittee's application. The OFW Special Water boundary
is based on the contour lines from the U.S. Geological Survey 1:24000-scale
quadrangle maps. This boundary is labeled with the elevation of those contours
that are most likely to meet the criteria of supporting obligate and facultative
plants and hydric soils. These elevations are 5 or 10 feet apart vertically, so
that other information was used to modify the line. Currently, the best additional
information is a set of EOSAT satellite images from 1992. The 1994 EOSAT
imagery was also available, but because 1994 was an extremely wet year,
the spectral reflectance values were judged less reliable. However, other
indications that the area inside the Special Waters delineation line is likely
to meet the rule's criteria are the swamp symbols on the quadrangle, the
change in slope that is indicative of the seepage line, or springs that indicate
that the groundwater is near the surface at that elevation. Cultural features
can also be helpful. Roads often stop at wetted areas and buildings are
usually (but not always) built above the elevation of the water feature's
most frequent floods. Similarly, railroads are usually built up high enough
to stay dry. This information is generally discernible on USGS 7.5 minute
quadrangles. Other OFW Categories : All other categories are taken from
the Lands managed for Conservation created and compiled by GEOPLAN
or have been created by us using descriptions from the Outstanding Florida
Waters documentation. Those boundaries created internally were scanned
from published materials, registered and rectified with 1:24,000 USGS Public
Land Survey section corners. Data was then extracted from USGS 1:24,000
hydrology layer and attributed. For boundaries not completely represented by
USGS 1:24,000 hydrology layer, arcs were digitized directly from the scanned
material to complete the boundary. State Parks and Recreational Areas Category
The COGO method has several advantages and disadvantages for use in
producing a database for the OFWs. It uses primary source material - the legal
description on the deed. Data created using this method should have validity
within the legal system because it is from a source familiar to the courts. Other
agencies are using the COGO system so it is a familiar process and product.
COGO methodology is appropriate in that it weds the new system for describing
land ownership to the existing system. Additionally, each parcel boundary will
be maintained in a digital form and can be extracted from the official boundary
as a parcel's status changes. This data layer will also be maintained and
updated by the stewards of all the state park boundaries data, so as the parcel
boundaries change, the OFW boundaries will automatically be updated.
The downside is that COGO (or the survey data it automates) is labor intensive
and requires extensive training and expertise to use. Each legal description
references source materials that may only be available locally or from the
county appraiser's office, at a cost of travel and materials. Each park boundary
may have numerous parcels transferred to the state at different times and
some parcel boundaries overlap. Legal descriptions were transferred to digital
form using the COGO modules in ESRI's ARC/INFO software on a UNIX platform
DEC Alpha 3000 workstation and Softdesk's ADDCAD Civil/Survey software
on 486/90 DELL personal computers configured with 1 gigabyte storage memory,
32 megabytes of RAM, 17" VGA monitors and running DOS. Both platforms are
connected to HP-650C plotters. See Standard COGO Procedures developed
by the Division of Parks and Recreation.

STANDARD COGO PROCEDURES used in creating original source information
REVISED 5/1/95
1 NEW DRAWING
1.1 Start a new AutoCad/COGO drawing using the CGPROTO.DWG prototype
drawing found in
F:\GROUPS\PARKS\CGPARCEL
1.2 File the new drawing under the park ID number plus "CG"
1.2.1 Example: SOOOO1CG.dwg for Addison Blockhouse S.H.S.
1.2.2 All park drawings shall be filed in
F:\GROUPS\PARKS\CGPARCEL
1.3 Attach, as an Xref, the USGS quad(s), if available.
1.3.1 All USGS quads may be found in
F:\GROUPS\PARKS\QUADS
1.3.2 The USGS quads are for reference only and shall not be
modified.
2 SOURCES FOR BOUNDARY DEVELOPMENT
2.1 Electronic survey file: Parcel deeds from 1991 to present may
have an electronic survey file. Research should be done to locate any
electronic files from Survey and. Mapping. The electronic survey files need
to be verified per our deeds to be certain all out easements and out parcels
are represented. Also, one survey may encompass several deeds and will need to
be broken out deed per deed.
2.2 Deed descriptions : The parcel boundaries will be generated
from the legal descriptions on the deeds.
2.3 USGS 1-24,000 electronic quads: Certain information on the
electronic quads (section lines, water meander lines and roadways) may be used
if and only if better information, such as bearing and distance calls and
electronic survey information, is not available
2.4 USGS 1-24,000 paper quads: Hardcopies of USGS quadrangle maps
compliment the electronic quads and provide a good visual reference. In
addition, if the electronic quad is not available, section lines, water meander
lines and roadways may be digitized from the paper quads as a last resort.
2.5 TRW/REDI tax maps: Tax maps are available for some counties
and provide information on tax parcels, government lots and roadways.
2.6 Additional sources:
2.6.1 Government survey plats show government lot boundaries.
2.6.2 Water line surveys are available for some coastal water
lines and river meander lines.
2.6.3 Base maps for the parks may help to clarify confusing
boundaries but are to be used for visual reference only
3 OBTAINING SOURCE INFORMATION
3.1 Electronic quads : If the quad(s) you need is/are not on the QUAD
directory, notify Kelley in writing requesting the specific quad(s) by quad
number.
3.1.1 The quad number (s) for each park may be determined as
follows:
1) find the general park location using THE FLORIDA STATE PARK
SYSTEM map,
2) from the GMDNCC FLORIDA BASEMAP, select the USGS
Quadrangle(s) corresponding to the paper quadrangle(s) in the COGO folder for
that park,
3) each quad has a four (4) digit number followed by
the letter "N", "W", or "E" associated with north, west and east zones,
respectfully -- choose the zone which applies to all or most of the previously
selected quad(s),
4) record the quad number (s) on parks COGO folder and
COGO Boundary Development Sheet.
3.1.2 Record the request in your COGO notebook
3.2 Electronic survey: If you need an electronic survey file, notify
Kayle in writing. Include the park name, county, Section, Township and Range,
deed date, grantor and any other information you feel may be helpful.
3.2.1 Record the request in your COGO notebook.
3.3 TRW/REED tax maps: Copies of tax maps may be obtained by
notifying Todd in writing. Include the county, Section, Township and Range
with your request.
3.3.1 Record the request in your COGO notebook.
3.4 Deeds and official records: For deeds and other count records,
notify Todd in writing. Include the county, O.R. book and page numbers and any
other information you feel may be helpful. Make absolutely certain that the
parcel boundaries cannot be completed without this information before you
request it.
3.4.1 Record the request in your COGO notebook.
3.5 Additional information: Should you require any other resources
such as government survey plats or water line surveys, notify Todd in writing.
Include the park name, county, Section, Township and Range and any other
information you feel may be helpful.
3.5.1 Record the request in your COGO notebook.
4 PARCEL BOUNDARY DEVELOPMENT For our purposes a parcel is defined as all that
area, upland or submerged, as described by a single deed.
4.1 From electronic survey: If an electronic survey is used, the
parcel boundary shall be WBLOCKed and INSERTed on the park drawing. For an
insertion point, use the POINT OF BEGINNING as specified on the electronic
survey.
4.2 From legal descriptions: Most parcel boundaries will be created
from the legal deed descriptions. These descriptions may provide bearing and
distance calls or refer to quadrangle sections, manmade or natural features,
government lots, tax parcels, or a combination thereof.
4.2.1 Bearing and distance calls are the most accurate of all
the deed information and shall be used whenever available, even for water
lines, section lines and roadways.
NOTE: If a bearing and a distance are provided but the
description also refers to a specific location (section line, roadway, water
line, etc.) and the location can be positively determined, follow the bearing
to the specified location regardless of the distance.
4.2.2 When it is necessary to use information from an
electronic quad, verify the entities needed for your parcel boundary then
duplicate them on your drawing file.
4.2.3. If REDI tax maps are used, dimensions may be scaled but
verify that the scale you are using is correct and that you can accurately
locate the parcel boundaries on the electronic quad(s). Also, parcel
information may be digitized as a last resort.
4.3. From other sources: Only as a last resort and in the absence of
more accurate information, other sources may be used to complete parcel
boundaries. However, the use of any sources not specified in this section
requires Todd's approval.
4.3.1. Also, record your request and Todd's decision in your
COGO notebook.
4.3.2. Todd will notify Kelley when other information is used.
5 DRAWING REQUIREMENTS
5.1 Parcel boundaries: The boundaries of each parcel shall meet the
following requirements.
5.1.1 All parcel boundaries shall be on the B-PARCEL layer.
5.1.2. Individual parcel boundaries should close but do not
need to be polylines.
5.1.3 All temporary lines used to create parcel boundaries
should be removed.
5.1.4. Parcels should not overlap. Notify Todd if this occurs.
5.1.5. When two parcels touch along one or more sides, only
one (1) dividing line is necessary. Double lines should be avoided.
5.2 Parcel numbers: Each parcel shall be given a nine (9) digit
identification number (####-#####) as follows.
5.2.1 The first four (4) digits correspond to the Unit I.D.
Number for the park being developed.
5.2.2 The last five (5) digits are used to sequentially number
the parcels in chronological order according to deed date where "-00001" refers
to the oldest deed. NOTE: If a parcel is added later, chose the next
available number regardless of deed date and do not renumber the parcels.
5.2.3 Clearly label each parcel on the drawing with its
complete parcel number.
5.2.4 All parcel number labels and associated leader lines
shall be on the B-PARTXT layer.
5.2.5 Record each parcel number, grantor and deed date on the
park's PARCEL IDENTIFICATION SHEET.
5.2.6 If a lease exists without a deed, use the lessor and
lease date in place of the grantor and deed date and note it on the park's
PARCEL IDENTIFICATION SHEET.
5.2.7 Example: "0001-00001" would represent the parcel
described in the oldest deed for Addison Blockhouse S.H.S.
5.3 Out parcels: Out parcels are areas removed from a parcel
according to the legal description and should have their own respective
boundaries.
5.3.1 All out parcel boundaries shall be on the B-OUTL layer.
5.3.2 In addition to its own boundary, each out parcel shall
have a parcel boundary on the B-PARCEL layer and a park boundary on the B-BNDL
layer.
5.3.3 Clearly label all out parcels with the word "OUT".
5.3.4 All "OUT" labels and associated leader lines shall be
on the B-OUTTXT layer/
5.3.5 Out parcels will not be recorded on the PARCEL
IDENTIFICATION SHEET.
5.4 Park boundary: After all the parcel boundaries have been
completed, create a separate polyline boundary for the entire park.
5.4.1 If the park consists of several non-adjoining pieces,
each piece should have its own separate polyline boundary.
5.4.2 All boundary lines shall be on the B-BNDL layer.

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
