Abstract:

ARROW Wildlife_View is a polygon shapefile showing areas that were identified in the Florida Fish And Wildlife Conservation Commission’s website (http://myfwc.com/viewing/regions/nwreg.html) as a place for viewing wildlife on September 1, 2004.  The boundaries for the areas were extracted from FNAI’s managed areas database.

Purpose:

This shapefile is a digital representation of areas identified as places for viewing wildlife by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on its web site.  This shapefile data set was developed as part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s ecological characterization grant to the Florida Natural Areas Inventory in 2003 for the Apalachicola River.

Completeness_Report:

 

The list of wildlife viewing areas was complete as of September 1, 2004 relative to the Florida FWC website.  However, it is obvious that there are many other places for viewing wildlife besides those identified by the FWC.  Consequently, the data set represents an implementation of wildlife viewing areas as identified by one state agency rather than a comprehensive effort to include all wildlife viewing areas.
