FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES:

Datafile Name: SHPO_RES_GROUPS_OCT19.DBF

FEATURE ATTRIBUTE TABLES CODES AND VALUES:

Item	Item Description
OBJECTID	Internal feature number.
Shape	Feature geometry.
SITEID	This is the official state site number assigned by the Florida Master Site File. The state site number is an eight character string containing a two character county code, a five character numeric code, and an optional single letter character suffix (suffix letter is generally used to indicate sites that are functionally or spatially related).
SITENAME	The site name as recorded at the Florida Master Site File. Usually the principal or best known name for a cultural resource. A site name of "NN" indicates no name has been designated for the site.
RGTYPE	This field indicates the type of resource group represented. There are four possible values: Historical District = Buildings or structures, no archaeological sites Archaeological District = Archaeological sites only Mixed District = Contains both archaeological sites and buildings or structures FMSF Building Complex = Multiple buildings in close functional and spatial association Designed historic landscape = May include multiple resources: e.g. parks, golf courses, campuses, resorts, etc. Rural historic landscape = May include multiple resources and resources not formally designed: e.g. farmsteads, fish camps, lumber camps, traditional ceremonial sites, etc. Linear resource = Linear resources are a special type of rural historic landscape and can include canals, railways, roads, etc.
NRCATEGORY	This a coded value indicating the National Register of Historic Places category the resource group fits into. The possible values are BLDG = Building(s) DIST = District OBJE = Object SITE = Site STRU = Stucture MRA = Multiple Resource Area TG = Thematic Group MPS = Multiple Property Submission
CITY	The city in which the resource group is located (or nearest city).
CONTRIBCR	For districts this indicates the number of contributing resources.
NONCONTRIB	The total number of cultural resources included in the resource group. For districts this number includes both contributing and non-contributing resources.
TIMESIG1	Time periods of significance. This is a date range for historic resources and an archaeological phase name with approximate date for prehistoric resources.
TIMESIG2	See TIMESIG1
TIMESIG3	See TIMESIG1
NARRATIVE	This is a summary narrative description of the resource group.
HISTASSC1	Areas of historical significance. These are categories defined in "National Register Bulletin 15", p.8. Each resource group may have multiple areas of significance.
HISTASSC2	See HISTASSC1
HISTASSC3	See HISTASSC1
HISTASSC4	See HISTASSC1
HISTASSC5	See HISTASSC1
HISTASSC6	See HISTASSC1
SURVEYNUM	The serial number assigned by the Site File to the manuscript produced by the project which identified or reexamined the cultural resource. Not all resource groups have an associated report or manuscript.
EVALUATION	The surveyor's summary of the significance of the resource group.
D_NRLISTED	Date that the resource was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The field is blank if the Site File database does not identify the resource as listed on the National Register.
SHPOEVAL	Evaluation of Florida's State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) concerning the eligibility of the resource for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. In Florida, the SHPO is the Director of the Division of Historical Resources, acting through staff in the Bureau of Historic Preservation (BHP). Generally the Site File database only contains evaluations made by the Compliance Review staff of BHP. Some properties may be listed on the NRHP without having been reviewed by Compliance Review staff. Therefore, an NR list date (indicating a property is NR listed) takes priority over a 'Not Evaluated by SHPO' value in this field. Values in this field are limited to a discrete list of possibilities used in the Site File database lookup table. Contact the Site File for more information.
DESCRIPT	FGDL added field based on SITENAME
FGDLAQDATE	Date FGDL obtained data from source.
AUTOID	Unique ID added by GeoPlan
SHAPE.AREA	Area in meters
SHAPE.LEN	Perimeter in meters

Attributes values are derived from the FMSF database. The FMSF database and paper files may contain several forms (an original and updates) for an individual resource group. The attributes in this data layer may be derived from a single form or a composite of several forms.

USER NOTES:

This data is provided 'as is'. GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the original data layer's topology

This data set updates and replaces all previous versions of the Florida Master Site File resource groups GIS data layer.

GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data.

The original location information is based on field reports, FMSF forms and National Register nomination forms which have been submitted to the Florida Master Site File by many and varied individuals, groups, institutions, and cultural resource firms. Submissions to the Site File are sometimes accepted from amateurs as well as professionals. The accuracy of submitted information cannot always be verified.

The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes.

This data is provided 'as is' and its horizontal positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

This data is provided 'as is' and its vertical positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

The locations of archaeological sites, historic structures, unmarked human burials, cemeteries, and other cultural features contained in this and other) Florida Master Site File data layers are for resource management, law enforcement, and research purposes only.

The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources) who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist. Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

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.

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

Source data were created by the Division of Historical Resources. The original location information is based on field reports, FMSF forms and National Register nomination forms which have been submitted to the Florida Master Site File by many and varied individuals, groups, institutions, and cultural resource firms. Submissions to the Site File are sometimes accepted from amateurs as well as professionals. The accuracy of submitted information cannot always be verified. Resource group boundaries are digitized on-screen in ArcGIS using Scanned, georeferenced, 1:24,000 scale USGS quadrangles and ESRI world imagery services as the base maps. Process Date: Unknown When received by GeoPlan, the data was in the following projection: Geographic, Datum: WGS 1984 Units: Decimal Degrees. The shapefile was projected to Albers HARNin ArcToolBox using the following transformation: WGS_1984_(ITRF00)_To_NAD_1983 + NAD_1983_To_HARN_Florida -Reprojected to Albers HARN -Added DESCRIPT field based on SITENAME to attribute table -Added fields FGDLAQDATE -Upcased all items in the attribute table -Changed file name to shpo_res_groups_jul19 from ResourceGroups Process Date: 20191015 Dataset copied.
