This dataset contains statewide tidalflat locations for Florida. Additional information provided by the Southwest Florida Water Management District. Delineated wetland boundaries are manually transferred from interpreted photos to USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps and then manually labelled. Quality control steps occur throughout the photointerpretation, map compilation, and map reproduction processes.
Files contain ground planimetric coordinates and wetland attributes.
The determination of scanning versus manual digitizing production method was based on feature density, source map quality, feature symbology, and availability of production systems. The data were checked for position by comparing plots of the digital data to the source material.
