FDEP BSM GPS Collections

This data set contains GPS data collected by the FDEP Bureau of Surveying and Mapping (BSM). Data was first imported from the [NGS Online Positional User Service (OPUS)]. On 1/10/2017 the import was performed based on all OPUS submittals performed by Rudolphe Konou of FDEP BSM. The file was imported to a geodatabase. Some of the original fields were dropped from the data set and some maintenance of the other fields was performed to match BSM needs for a web application. Since inception, the file is updated via a Geoform as solutions are returned to FDEP from OPUS. Point of Contact: Bryan Shoaf, FDEP Division of State Lands 850-245-2619 [bryan.shoaf@dep.state.fl.us]
Lower West Coast Hydrogeologic Unit Land Surface Elevation Contours 2015

To generate the land surface grid for this project, VIEWLOG was used to re-sample a 100-ft digital elevation model (DEM) of best-available data for the Lower West Coast planning region of the SFWMD. The original DEM was composited in 2013 from multiple sources. The 100 x 100 foot cell size of the DEM was resampled to a grid size of 2000 x 2000 feet (Liebermann and Bedell, 2013). The vertical datum is NGVD29. The contour interval is in feet.The objectives of this study were to create regional hydrogeologic maps including contour maps showing unit surfaces and thicknesses, and cross-sections representative of both the surficial aquifer system (SAS) and intermediate aquifer system (IAS). The maps, source data, and metadata used to generate these products will be archived in a manner suitable for model implementation and regulatory use in a publically accessible format. The results will be incorporated into the forthcoming Lower West Coast Surficial Aquifer System and Intermediate Aquifer System Model (LWCSIM), which will evaluate the potential impact of existing and projected groundwater withdrawals in all SAS and IAS aquifers within the region over the next several decades.For full documentation, please see Technical Publication WS-35, "Hydrogeologic Unit Mapping Update for the Lower West Coast Water Supply Planning Area," dated August 2015 by Elizabeth Geddes, Emily Richardson P.G., and Anne Dodd P.G. , Water Supply Bureau, Water Resources Division, South Florida Water Management District, West Palm Beach, Florida.https://www.sfwmd.gov/sites/default/files/documents/ws-35_lwc_hydrogeologic_mapping_083115.pdf

Lower West Coast Hydrogeologic Unit Absences 2015

Please note that while the aquifer units and their thicknesses were explicitly mapped, the thicknesses of the confining units were not. The confining unit isopach maps were derived by subtracting the top of an aquifer from the base of the overlying aquifer. Due to this approach, confining units were defined solely on the basis of the aquifer they overlie (i.e., the Tamiami confining unit overlies the Lower Tamiami aquifer, Upper Hawthorn confining unit overlies the Sandstone aquifer, etc.). Therefore, where an aquifer was absent, its associated confining unit was undefined (and therefore absent as well). Areas where a confining unit was undefined (because the underlying aquifer was absent or insignificant) have been delineated separately from areas where the confining unit was absent or insignificant (although the underlying aquifer was present).The objectives of this study were to create regional hydrogeologic maps including contour maps showing unit surfaces and thicknesses, and cross-sections representative of both the surficial aquifer system (SAS) and intermediate aquifer system (IAS).

Lower West Coast Hydrogeologic Unit Golden Spike Wells 2015

Sites where the hydrogeologic aquifer picks had the highest confidence were designated “golden spike” wells and were used as benchmarks during data evaluation. The basis for the golden spike designation was a well that had a high quality data set, conformed to project unit criteria and were given a ranking of 1. Candidate wells for golden spike classification were preferred if they had been recommended as representative by a local utility, had data available for reassessment, and/or had multiparty agreement. Golden spike data were also obtained from SWFWMD to correlate wells in the northern portion of the project area along the boundary between SFWMD and SWFWMD. This data set was developed in 2014 and 2015 in support of the Hydrogeologic Unit Mapping Update for the Lower West Coast Water Supply Planning Area (see Technical Publication WS-35)The objectives of this study were to create regional hydrogeologic maps including contour maps showing unit surfaces and thicknesses, and cross-sections representative of both the surficial aquifer system (SAS) and intermediate aquifer system (IAS).

Indian River Lagoon Seagrass Communities (1940)

These data serve as documentation for seagrass coverage in the Indian River Lagoon in 1940. Seagrass coverage was photointerpreted from 1940 aerials at 1:20,000 scale black and white transparencies. Features were classified according to SFWMD/SJRWMD modified FLUCCS using photogrammetric techniques; ground control obtained from GPS survey and USGS DOQQs, aerotriangulation of aerial photography, and stereo compilation using analytical stereoplotters using a minimum mapping unit of 0.25 acres (=0.1 hectares). These data document and inventory seagrasses for the management of the resource, identify "healthy" areas that may deserve special protection efforts, and identify potential "problem" areas that require further investigation. These data are intended for use in documenting large-scale trends in the status of this resource. The Indian River Lagoon (IRL) Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) Plan directs the South Florida and St. Johns River Water Management Districts to map seagrasses in the Indian River Lagoon at two to three-year intervals.

SFWMD Land Cover Land Use 2014-2016

This data set serves as documentation of land cover and land use (LCLU) within the South Florida Water Management District as it existed in 2014-16. Land Cover Land Use data was updated from 2008-09 LCLU by photo-interpretation from 2014-16 aerial photography and classified using the SFWMD modified FLUCCS classification system. Features were interpreted from the county-based aerial photography (4 in - 2 ft pixel), see imagery year in the "AERIAL DATE" field. The features were updated on screen from the 2008-09 vector data. Horizontal accuracy of the data corresponds to the positional accuracy of the county aerial photography. The minimum mapping unit for classification was 0.5 acres for wetlands and 5 acres for uplands. This dataset is now complete. 2014 Photointerpretation Key: [https://geoext.geoapps.sfwmd.gov/TPubs/2014_SFWMD_LULC_Photointerpretation_Key.pdf ] To download zipped file geodatabse: [https://sfwmd.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=266a64a897514090842e283311c12d30]

Stormwater Treatment Area (STA) - Vegetation (2011) [Download Only]

[DOWNLOAD ONLY] The South Florida Water Management District (District or SFWMD) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have built six large treatment wetlands, referred to as Stormwater Treatment Wetlands (STAs), in the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) as part of a State and Federal initiative to protect the Everglades (Chimney and Goforth, 2001; Sklar et al., 2005). These treatment wetlands are intended to reduce high phosphorus concentrations in surface runoff coming from the EAA before this water reaches the northern portion of the present-day Everglades, i.e., the Water Conservations Areas. Each STA is subdivided into a number of treatment cells by interior levees. Treatment wetlands reduce the concentration of water-borne pollutants through natural bio-geochemical processes (Kadlec and Wallace, 2009). Wetland biogeochemistry, in turn, is intimately associated with the extent and condition of the wetland’s vegetation community (Reddy and DeLaune, 2009). Because of the important relationship between wetland treatment performance and vegetation, the vegetation communities in the STAs have been monitored throughout their operational histories. This effort was mandated as a condition of STA operating permits and by the Process Development and Engineering section of the District’s Long Term Plan (Burns & McDonnell, 2003). The vegetation communities in the STAs have been monitored using two different approaches: (1) vegetation maps were prepared for each STA based on the spatial distribution of different vegetation types interpreted from aerial photographs and (2) field surveys were conducted at a network of sites within each wetland to catalog plant taxa and assess vegetation areal coverage of the dominant taxa. The field-survey program was initiated as a cost-effective alternative to mapping for characterizing the plant community.
