It primarily covers Charlotte, Glades, Lee, Hendry, and Collier counties, but also includes part of several others. Basin boundaries have been revised from previous versions, and subbasin boundaries have been composited from various sources. The dataset has been edited and checked, but it is still likely that changes will be made as more reviewers provide insight and information. Provide consistent boundaries of basins and subbasins for future modeling and analysis. publication date 2/4/2009 Complete As needed \\ftmfs1\swffs\GeoData\SwfLib\Hydrography\SubBasin\plot\jpg\swf_subbasin-1a.jpgMap showing SW Florida basins and subbasinsJPEGMicrosoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.2.4.1420-82.290653-80.27291227.38254924.510162237292.986000892122.12500066166.3130001108234.125000File Geodatabase Feature Class Shannon Philippus South Florida Water Management District GIS Data Steward mailing and physical address

For years a coverage named DBASINS, digitized from a ragged wallmap hand-drawn in the 1980s, was the de facto standard. In 2001-2 the boundaries were revised and reviewed by District staff, and were approved to replace the older version. The 2002 version was named PRIM_BASINS. It incorporated data from other sources, such as county-based delineations or basin-modeling efforts, but was limited to the "basin" level of detail and did not include "subbasin" boundaries.20090204ArcInfo2002In 2003 District staff and contractors working for the District refined the PRIM_BASINS coverage for Southwest Florida (SWF) to include subbasins. Data from Lee County, Big Cypress Basin, Caloosahatchee Basin, the SWFWMD, and other sources were added to the PRIM_BASINS coverage. Sliver polygons and other inconsistencies were removed. The boundaries were compared to coverages of canals, water-control structures, existing landuse, and aerial photographs. Further changes were made in response to comments by extension agents and field personnel.ArcInfo2003Additional changes have been made, in order to fix minor errors/discrepancies and to group the subbasins in more useful ways. The wq_basin grouping was developed in 2006 as an intermediate-size grouping, larger than subbasins and smaller than basins.ArcInfo2004-2008Variable, ranges probably from 1:12000 to 1:100000Coverages were converted to feature classes in a file-geodatabase format.ArcGisDec. 2008Metadata imported.U:\GeoData\SwfLib\Hydrography\SubBasin\metadata\metadata.xml20090204Metadata imported.U:\GeoData\SwfLib\Hydrography\SubBasin\metadata\swf_basins-fgdb_metadata.xml20090204Basin names may be considered 100 percent accurate. Many of the subbasin names are arbitrary and therefore subject to change. Subregion names are somewhat arbitrary, but are useful and appropriate for the SWFFS study. Wq_basin names are somewhat arbitrary, but are useful for aggregating subbasins into functional surface-water groups for the SWFFS study. Dataset covers all of the SW Florida Feasibility Study area, including all of the area covered by the SWFFS model.Because of the indeterminate nature of drainage divides in flat areas and the variety of sources that were used to compile this dataset, it is difficult to assess horizontal accuracy. Much of the linework has been registered to known features, such as roads, canals, or structures. In other areas, the linework is simply a guess. It is quite possible that further review would result in changes on orders ranging from a few feet to a few miles. Perhaps the best that can be said is that the boundaries represent a reasonable consensus among knowledgeable persons.20090204Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.2.4.1420subbasin_ply237292.986892122.1251108234.12566166.3131-82.290653-80.27291227.38254924.5101621ISO 19115 Geographic Information - MetadataDIS_ESRI1.0dataset002file://\\ftmfs1\swffs\GeoData\SwfLib\Hydrography\SubBasin\spatial\fgdb\Swf_Basins.gdbLocal Area NetworkFile Geodatabase Feature ClassVectorSimplePolygonFALSE334TRUEFALSEG-polygon334GCS_North_American_1983_HARNNAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Florida_East_FIPS_0901_Feetcoordinate pairsurvey feet0.0010000.001000Transverse Mercator0.999941-81.00000024.333333656166.6666670.000000D_North_American_1983_HARNGeodetic Reference System 806378137.000000298.257222Explicit elevation coordinate included with horizontal coordinates0.000100NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Florida_East_FIPS_0901_Feet334subbasin_plyFeature Class334OBJECTIDOBJECTIDOID400Internal feature number.ESRISequential unique whole numbers that are automatically generated.ShapeShapeGeometry000Feature geometry.ESRICoordinates defining the features.AREAAREADouble800PERIMETERPERIMETERDouble800SWF_SUBBASIN_SWF_SUBBASIN_Integer400SWF_SUBBASIN_IDSWF_SUBBASIN_IDInteger400SUBBASINSUBBASINString3000SubBasin name -- smallest unitBASINBASINString3000Basin name -- Basins are larger than subbasins and smaller than subregionsSUBREGIONSUBREGIONString3000SubRegion name -- These are large units, such as Freshwater CaloosahatcheeALTDEVWQ_BASINALTDEVWQ_BASINString4000AltDevWQ_Basin -- These are groups of subbasins.
