-
- Process_Description:
-
Grids were created for all of Florida and surrounding waters using the methodology in the "Guidelines for Building US National Grid Polygons with ArcGIS" from Florida Division of Emergency Management, using the "fishnet" and "Add X,Y" tools as documented.
Grids were created for 16R and 17R individually in their respective UTM zones, NAD 83 datum. To combine the two zones into a single file, first they were projected to Albers, then CLIPped using the 16R and 17R from ESRI's UTM zones data set, also projected to Albers. The CLIPped data sets were MERGEd together into a single file. A topology was run to ensure that no overlaps or gaps between the zones were present.
