Coding method varies somewhat between interpreters, such as in the use of modifiers or secondary codes. Consistency is enhanced by the small number of interpreters and team approach. No edit masks present; Coverages exist in double precision; Fuzzy tolerances will be 0.0001; Arc and polygon topology present; All coverages shall be coordinated edgematched to adjacent coverages; Identically coded polygons shall not be adjacent to each other within a coverage; No superfluous pseudo nodes or tics; No duplicate features; No sliver polygons, label errors, dangles, or intersection errors shall exist; Unknown No coding is done outside District boundaries. In some quads one or more counties were not mapped. Unmapped areas are coded EX for external. The non-wetlands matrix is coded as U, for upland. Uplands areas may include hydric soils or drained wetlands. The maps are accurate only for the date of photography used. Many vegetation types undergo rapid change, such as floating vegetation or cleared areas. Many are changed by land use factors. Wetlands maps represent a baseline inventory, and are not edited to reflect changes. Unknown Classification is based on species recognition by interpreters, resulting in high thematic accuracy. In the absence of a statistical test, accuracy is estimated at greater than 90% for dominant vegetation types. Accuracy is greater for classes such as water and cypress, and can be less for certain mixed classes that intergrade. For example, Hardwood Swamp can be confused with Hydric Hammock in transitional areas. Accuracy varies for different locations, dates, and interpreters. Drained wetlands are mapped as uplands if wetlands vegetation is not present, or if land is farmed or developed. Managed forests in hydric areas may be mapped as Forested Depression - Pine or as uplands. Unknown [ft_us] 0 Positional: Georeferencing specifications for this project require an overall RMS (root mean square) error of 30 feet or less, for visible control points. The spec for maximum error for any control point is 50 feet, which is slightly exceeded in some cases. Regardless of specifications, the actual linework may have larger displacement error in some locations where position control was very limited. All control point coordinates were derived from USGS 1:24k quads. The main source of positional error, in general, is from due to the difficulty of delineating wetland boundaries in transitional areas. Thematic accuracy: Correct differentiation of wetlands from uplands: 95% Correct differentiation of saline wetlands from freshwater or transitional wetlands: 95% Correct differentiation of forested, shrub, herbaceous, or other growth forms: 90% Correct differentiation of specific types within classes: 80% Positional Accuracy: The horizontal error of clearly identifiable features shall not exceed an average of 10 meters or a maximum of 15 meters for any 7.5' quadrangle area, with error measured as horizontal discrepancy between wetlands map coordinates and the locations of features obtained from 1995 Digital Orthoquads. Unknown [ft_us] 0 Fiducial marks of the photographs were precisely transferred to mylar overlays. Also at this time, reference control points were located on the USGS Digital Ortho Quadrangles and the corresponding points were located on the mylar overlays. Vegetation classification: Vegetation was classified according to the District classification system. Edgematching: Delineated features on each overlay wereedge matched steroscopically to features interpreted on all adjacent frames and quadarangles Features were interpreted stereoscopically and polygon boundaries were drawn on mylar overlays. QualityAssurance of Completed ArcInfo coverages. OBJECT ID 258619 was erroneously coded as HS when it is actually upland. The change was made. Ground truth verification OID 112999 in Brevard County (a large polygon) was erroneously coded as WP (wet prairie) - was fixed to be U (upland) ArcInfo coverages were loaded in SDE Creation of digital ArcInfo Wetland coverages - The linework mylars were scanned, vectorized and converted to ArcInfo coverages. Wetlands polygons were photointerpreted by district staff from 1:24,000 color infrared photography. The photography dates for each county are: 11/90 Alachua 01/86 Brevard 01/86 Clay 05/84 Duval 11/90 Flagler 04/89 Indian River 02/87 Lake 01/86 Marion 04/89 Nassau 03/88 Orange 11/90 Putnam 03/84 Seminole 01/88 St. Johns 03/88 Volusia Polygon boundaries and positional control points were delineated on mylar sheets using a zoom stereoscope. The linework and points were digitized and then georeferenced using a SJRWMD fortran program called Space 4, which performs perspective transformation using both ground control and tie points. Ancillary data used to interpret wetland polygons includes National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps, Soil Surveys, USGS 7.5 topo maps, and other sources of Photography archived at the District. Extensive field checking was done on many of the quads. An index map at /sjr/es2/wetlands/metadata/wetveg_index/windex.cmp shows the completion status of the quads.

VEGETATION VEGETATION String 80 0 0 Wetlands vegetation description SJRWMD FRESHWATER WETLANDS Cypress (CY) - Forested wetlands dominated by Bald cypress or Pond cypress (Taxodium distichum or T. ascendens) that are flooded annually for periods of long duration - typically 4 to 8 months in any given year. Includes Cypress dome, stand, and lakeshore variants. Hardwood Swamp (HS) - Forested wetlands dominated by one or more deciduous hardwood species that typically include Black gum, Red maple, Water ash, Water elm, and Willows. Cypress is often a significant compo-nent of this type. Subject to annual, seasonal periods of prolonged flooding. Bay Head (BH) - Forested wetlands dominated by one or more species of broadleaved, evergreen, or Bay trees (Gordonia lasianthus, Persea palustris, or Magnolia virginica). Dahoon holly (Ilex cassine) may occasionally be dominant. Soils are usually organic and nearly constantly saturated as well as being at least occasionally flooded. Some sites may have canopies that are dominated by Pines, but Bays and other indicators will be prevalent in the sub canopy and under story. Bay Gall (BG) - Forested wetlands typically dominated by one or more species of evergreen, or Bay trees, and, less commonly, by Dahoon holly, deciduous hardwoods, or Pine. Located at the bases of sandy slopes and maintained by down slope seepage. Soils are organic and are nearly constantly saturated but infrequently flooded. Hydric Hammock (HH) - Forested systems dominated by a mixture of broadleaved, evergreen, and deciduous tree species. Cabbage palmetto (CP) may be dominant in some variants of this type. Seldom inundated, but have saturated soils during much of the year. Bottomland Hardwoods (BL) - Deciduous forest communities lying in the floodplains of rivers and streams that are subject to the rapid rise and fall of floodwaters. Sometimes they may be relatively well drained, or, at most, saturated by lateral seepage. The associated soils are alluvial. Forested Flatwoods Depressions (FD) - Typically these are Pond cypress, Pine, deciduous hardwood, Bay, or Cabbage palm dominated communities occupying shallow depressions in mesic flatwoods sites. The under story vegetation consists of hydrophytic shrubs, grasses, and herbs. Saw palmetto, Gallberry and other typical mesic flatwoods species are generally absent. In the absence of fires, or as a result of forest management practices, under story or associated species (such as Loblolly bay) may dominate these sites. Soils are usually sandy and are subject to brief (1 - 2 months) seasonal inundation or prolonged soil saturation. Shrub Swamp (SS) - Dominated by Willows, Buttonbush, or similar appearing vegetation. The hydrology is similar to that of Cypress, hardwood swamp, or shallow marsh communities. Shrub Bog (SB) - Dominated by shrubby vegetation occupying typical Bay head sites.

Shallow Marsh (SM) - Herbaceous or graminoid communities dominated by species such as Sawgrass, Maidencane, Cattails, Pickerel weed, Arrowhead, or other grasses and broad leaved herbs. Occurs most often on organic soils that are subject to lengthy seasonal inundation. Subject to occasional fire. Wet Prairie (WP) - Communities of grasses, sedges, rushes, and herbs typically dominated by Sand cordgrass, Maidencane, or a mixture of species. Usually occurs on mineral soils that are inundated for a relatively short duration each year, but with prolonged soil saturation. Subject to frequent fire. Floating Marshes (FF) - Communities of free-floating plants (such as Water hyacinth, Water lettuce, or Lemna) or floating mats of rhizomatous species (such as Alligator weed or various grasses and sedges). Freshwater Flats and Barren Areas (BA) - Sandy or muddy sites subject to occasional or regular inundation with less than 33% vegetation cover during the growing season. TRANSITIONAL WETLANDS Intermediate Marsh (IM) - Herbaceous wetlands of low or fluctuating salinity in which neither estuarine nor freshwater species attain full dominance. Subject to significant freshwater inflows, as well as, daily tides and saltwater influence. OTHER UPLANDS (U) - Used for all areas that are not delineated as wetlands vegetation. May include drained areas, developed or farmed lands, and Pine plantations on hydric soils. Hydrology may be xeric, mesic, or hydric.

It provides classification at several levels (land form, community, species) into a single character string. The levels coded for each polygon are not consistent - most codes indicate plant community, but for some polygons species type and/or landform are included. This provides useful information, but it may make automated analysis difficult. For shading purposes, only the first two characters of the code are used. Added symbology (*,ampersandgt;,ampersandlt; /, -) indicate degree of inclusion, over/under story, and sub levels. A number of modifiers, infrequently used, mainly indicate management status.
