<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This data layer was created by the University of Florida Center for Landscape Conservation Planning to represent the extent of potential ranchlands in Florida. The data creation process involved several steps. First, a subset of property parcels was selected from the Florida Geographic Data Library's PARCELS_2023 shapefile, specifically those classified as Grazing Land with Soil Capability Classes I to VI. Next, an additional subset was created by identifying parcels designated as Improved Agriculture or Acreage Not Zoned Agriculture. Parcels from this subset that overlapped with areas of Improved Pasture or Unimproved Woodland Pasture from the Cooperative Land Cover v. 3.8 shapefile (Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission) were selected. The two subsets were merged to create the final data layer with individual parcel boundaries dissolved in the final version. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This layer was created using input data consistent with 1:5,000 to 1:64,000 map scale resolutions. Such data are of sufficient resolution for state and regional scale conservation planning. They are not appropriate for use in high accuracy mapping applications such as property parcel boundaries, local government comprehensive plans, zoning, DRI, site plans, environmental resource or other agency permitting, wetland delineations, or other uses requiring more specific and ground survey quality data. This layer is not intended for any such uses.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This layer is likely to be regularly updated and it is the responsibility of the user to obtain the most recent available version of the data.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Data should not be transferred to a third party, in data or map form, without noting these disclaimers and also citing the University of Florida Center for Landscape Conservation Planning as the source of these data. This layer is not intended to be used for commercial purposes. In addition, all users are encouraged to direct other interested parties to the Florida Geographic Data Library to download data versus sharing data directly.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Users also need to be aware that this layer was developed using statewide parcel data from 2023. Therefore, users can expect that some more recent land use changes may not be reflected in the data layer. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
