USER NOTES:
The final product was checked against the source material.  Monthly topology 
checks are performed to correct any accidental overlaps.  The Mapping and 
GIS section of the Southwest Florida Water Management District corrected 
any errors found.
This layer contains the best known mapped control area for each permit/revision
GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within
the original data.
1-Most control areas should not overlap.
2-The same predominant use should not have overlapping control areas.  
3-The predominant uses of Agriculture and Mining are allowed 
overlapping control areas.
4-All active groundwater or surface water withdrawals should be 
located within the permit control areas.
5-Control areas are defined by the property the applicant controls when 
the permit is issued.  With the exception of Public Supply predominant 
use, which may reflect a control area that will come under the permittee's 
control in the future.

This layer is a historical accounting of the most accurate and recently 
defined control area for each permit/revision that has been mapped. 
The Basis of Review states an applicant for a Water Use Permit "must 
demonstrate ownership or legal control of all property on which pumps, 
wells, diversions or other water withdrawal facilities are or will be located."  
The boundaries are mapped using the legal documentation submitted by 
the applicant and/or other government data (i.e. county property appraiser 
parcel data).

Visual inspection of the linework over the digital orthophotos, at a scale of 
1:8,000 is used to verify the positional placement of the linework. The orthophotos 
meet or exceed a verified horizontal accuracy of 5.2 feet at the 95% confidence 
level.

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

These data were not collected under the supervision of a licensed 
Professional Surveyor and Mapper. Use of these data requires a general 
understanding of GIS.

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. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using,

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:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
Using FME from Safe Software, Inc, the existing feature class is truncated 
and then reloaded with data from the feature class CONTROL_AREA_AUDIT, 
and Oracle WMIS tables. Only those features in CONTROL_AREA_AUDIT 
with a BEST_GEO_FLAG of 1, which designates the best known geometry 
for that particular permit number and revision combination, are used to update 
the existing feature class.

This is done on a daily basis.
Process Date: Daily

This dataset was received by the GeoPlan Center via ftp on 10/14/2011. The data was originally in shapefile format. When received the data set was in the following projection: NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Florida_West_FIPS_0902_Feet. The data was projected to Albers NAD 83 HARN. - Added the field DESCRIPT based on SITE_PROJE. - Added the field FGDLAQDATE based on date downloaded from source. - Upcased all text in the attribute table. - Data set was renamed sw_wup_cntrhist_oct11 from WUP_CONTROL_AREA_HISTORY - Deleted OBJECTID field Process Date: 20111014
