Description:
Abstract:
This GIS data set represents the US National Grid 100,000 meter polygons for Florida and the surrounding Gulf of Mexico waters in the 16R and 17R grids.
Purpose:
This data set represents US National Grid polygons for cartographic purposes.
Supplemental_Information:
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.

Process_Step:
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.
Tools used to create the grids: Fishnet - <http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=12807> (courtesy of Robert Nicholas) Add X,Y - <http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=13920> (courtesy of Xiaoming Yang)
