      <abstract>This dataset contains locations from the antenna structures database that are required to register with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC requires owners to register those antenna structures which generally are more than 60.96 meters (200 feet) in height or located near an airport. This is an update to the antreg_aug18 layer.</abstract>
      <purpose>Serve as base information for use in GIS systems for general planning, analytical, and research purposes. It is not intended for engineering work or to legally define reservation boundaries, FCC licensee data or FCC market boundaries.</purpose>

      <procstep>
        <procdesc>In 2012 the FCC stopped releasing tower and antenna locations as spatial data. Data layers are available as databases with associated .dat files. GeoPlan downloaded the Antenna Structure Registrations from http://wireless.fcc.gov/antenna/index.htm?job=uls_transaction&amp;page=weekly in September 2020. During the QA/QC process GeoPlan performed the following steps: - Opened and formatted the CO.dat file in Excel. Added field names using the FCC Database Field Definitions File: http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/documentation/patower-2.xls. Saved coordinate fields as LATD, LATM, LATS, LAT_DIR, LOND, LONM, LONS, and LON_DIR - Saved the CO.dat file to a CSV and Exported to .dbf using ArcMap. - Filtered .dbf to contain only records located in Florida. (Using field Structure_State Code from RA.dat - Added LATDD and LONDD fields as type = double - Used field calculator to convert coordinate fields from DMS to DD. The equation for latitude was: ( [LATS] /3600) + ( [LATM] /60) + [LATD] The equation for longitude was: ( [LONS] /3600) + ( [LONM] /60) + [LOND] - Generated XY data using the LATDD and LONDD fields. The projection was defined as WGS 1984. - Exported XY events to shapefile. - Fields LATD, LATM, LATS, LAT_DIR, LOND, LONM, LONS, and LON_DIR were deleted. - Projected the new shapefile to NAD_1983_HARN_Florida_GDL_Albers using the WGS_1984_(ITRF00)_To_NAD_1983 + NAD_1983_To_HARN_Florida transformation - Removed 5 records: the have no regnum or filenum: entities: - Salem Communications Holding Corporation, Inc - Salem Media Group, Inc - Salem Communications Holding Corporation, Inc - Salem Communications Holding Corporation, Inc - iHeartMedia Entertainment, Inc. - Opened and formatted EN.dat and RA.dat files in Excel. Added field names using the FCC Database Field Definitions File and previous fgdl versions of antreg. Deleted fields not present in previous versions. - Saved the EN and RA dat files as CVS files and exported to .dbf files using ArcMap. - EN and RA .dbf files brought into ArcMap and joined with the antreg feature class using REGNUM field. - Edited the feature class attribute table to match previous fgdl versions. - Added field MGRS by using the Convert Coordinate Notation tool and choosing output coordinate format as MGRS. - Added field GOOGLEMAP by concatenating: https://www.google.com/maps/place/ and the MGRS ID - Added descript field based on Entity from EN.dat file. - Added FGDLAQDATE based on the date GeoPlan acquired the data. - Restructured table and uppercased all fields. Field Changes - Previous fields LAT_DMS and LON_DMS have been renamed to LAT and LON. - Previous fields DD_TEMP and DD_TEMP0 have been renamed to LATDD and LONDD. - Removed fields LAT_DIR and LON_DIR Notes: When the FCC generated this data set spatially in the past they limited the lat/long fields to 4 decimals. Now that we are generating the spatial locations the decimals have been left to the default value of the field type of double. The result is a visible shift of 1-3 meters.</procdesc>

    <resdesc>DOWNLOADABLE DATA</resdesc>
    <distliab>The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources) who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist. Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using, modifying, contributing or distributing the materials. A note about data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data. 1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger. Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html</distliab>
