National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 20120105 vector digital data Silver Spring, MD National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration State of Florida http://coastalsocioeconomics.noaa.gov/download/download2.html This dataset contains the Coastal Assessment Framework (CAF) Drainage Areas produced by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The CAF is a digital spatial framework developed using geographic information system (GIS) technology, which allows resource managers and analysts to organize and present information on the nation's coastal and marine resources. The CAF provides a consistently derived, watershed-based digital spatial framework for managers and analysts to organize and present information on the nation's coastal, near-ocean, and Great Lakes' resources. This dataset is an update to the CAFFL_2010 layer. To organize and present information on the nation's coastal and marine resources. Coastal Assessments Framework The Coastal Assessment Framework (CAF) is a digital spatial framework developed using geographic information system (GIS) technology, which allows resource managers and analysts to organize and present information on the nation's coastal and marine resources. The CAF provides a consistently derived, watershed-based digital spatial framework for managers and analysts to organize and present information on the nation's coastal, near-ocean, and Great Lakes' resources. The Framework is composed of 150 Estuarine (and sub-estuarine) Drainage Areas (EDAs), 54 Fluvial Drainage Areas (FDAs), 324 Coastal Drainage Areas (CDAs), 12 Fluvial components of Coastal Drainage Areas (FCDAs), 11 interior watershed areas (self-contained, groundwater-contributing only, or watersheds draining to outside the U.S.). The CAF encompasses 100 percent of the land area within the coterminous United States of America. The complete CAF geography contains both land and water (near-ocean) components and is available in a variety of compositions as outlined below. CAF - Coastal (Estuarine) Watersheds - Land only This geography contains the land portions of the Coastal Assessment Framework's 150 Estuarine (and sub-estuarine) Drainage Areas (EDAs) and 324 Coastal Drainage Areas (CDAs). http://coastalgeospatial.noaa.gov/images/caf_edas.jpg CAF - Upstream (Fluvial) Watersheds - Land only This geography contains the land portions of the Coastal Assessment Framework's 54 Fluvial Drainage Areas (FDAs) and 12 Fluvial components of Coastal Drainage Areas (FCDAs). http://coastalgeospatial.noaa.gov/images/caf_fdas.jpg CAF - Interior Watersheds - Land only This geography contains the land portions of the Coastal Assessment Framework's 11 Interior (self-contained, groundwater-contributing only, or watersheds draining to outside the U.S.) Watersheds. http://coastalgeospatial.noaa.gov/images/caf_interiors.jpg CAF - National Coastal Assessment Framework - Land only This geography contains the land portions of the Coastal Assessment Framework (Coastal, Upstream, and Interior components). http://coastalgeospatial.noaa.gov/images/caf_all.jpg CAF - Total Watersheds - Land only This geography contains the land portions of the Coastal Assessment Framework (Coastal, Upstream, and Interior components) dissolved to the whole watershed level (no Coastal nor Upstream delineations remain) as described above. http://coastalgeospatial.noaa.gov/images/caf_watersheds.jpg CAF - Complete Coastal Assessment Framework - Land and Water The complete Coastal Assessment Framework (Coastal, Upstream, Interior, and portions of U.S. Watersheds located outside the U.S.), including both land and water components at the hydrologic cataloging unit level.

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.

The original layer (caf_drainage_areas_wgs84.shp) was in the following projection: GCS_WGS_1984. GeoPlan, during the QA/QC process included the following aspects: - Projected data to FGDL Albers HPGN (See "Map Projection Parameters" below). - Selected data that intersected the State of Florida. - Added a DRAINAGE field and populated it based in the DR_CODE field. - Added DESCRIPT item added based on SUB_NAME. - Added and populated an ACRES field - Upcased all character records.

SUB_NAME For Fluvial Drainage and Estuarine Drainage Areas the name of major watershed the drainage area belongs to. For Coastal Drainge Areas, a combination of edacda code plus USGS cataloging unit name. NOAA DR_CODE Drainage code. NOAA C Coastal Drainage Area - component of an entire watershed that meets the following three criteria: 1) it is not part of any EDA; 2) it drains directly into an ocean, an estuary, or the Great Lakes; and 3) it is composed only of the downstream-most HUC in which the head-of-tide is found. E Estuarine Drainage Area -component of an estuary's entire watershed that empties directly into the estuary and is affected by tides. EDAs may be composed of all or part of a single or several USGS hydrologic units and include all or part of the USGS cataloging unit containing the most upstream extent of tidal influence (head-of-tide). F Fluvial Drainage Area - component of an estuary's entire watershed upstream of the EDA boundary. FDAs have land components only. The huge 1,131,700 square mile Mississippi River FDA dwarfs all others, and makes up over half of the total drainage area covered by the entire CAF.
