Description: The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) is a massive environmental effort encompassing many organizations and projects. Coordination of the projects is one of the main objectives, and GIS is a key technology to coordinate the work. This layer is an official map of the boundaries of the CERP projects, including Expedited projects, intended to be used by all researchers and collaborators in the CERP process. Attribution on the map shows the project names, key contacts, and other critical information for 67 different projects. Additional information for each project and for the many programs involved is available on the internet at referenced sites, in particular www.evergladesrestoration.gov. The updated version of this layer is maintained by the Land Acquisition Program on an Oracle SDE server, feature dataset is SFWBNDS and a feature class named CERPBnds. The official layer name in the SFWMD's GIS library is 'bdwmdcrp'.
Description: This feature class contains the boundaries for the Northern Everglades, Southern Everglades, and the protection plans for the Lake Okeechobee (LOPP), Caloosahatchee River Watershed (CRWPP), and St. Lucie River Watershed (SLRWPP). The feature class has a field named "Type"; corresponding to the following values:0 = set for the boundaries comprising the Northern and Southern Everglades; 1 = set for the overlap between the two areas North and South; 2 = set for Northern Everglades and Estuaries Protection Program (NEEPP); 3 = set for watersheds; 4 = set for subwatersheds; 5 = set for drainage basins; 6 = set for the Lake Okeechobee (waterbody). The boundary for the Northern Everglades and Estuaries Protection Program (NEEPP) is defined as the combined area for the Lake Okeechobee, Caloosahatchee River, and St. Lucie River watersheds. These boundaries were defined over time from varying versions of the SFWMD ArcHydo-Enhanced-Dataset (AHED) and other supplemental data. For source dates and inputs see metadata.
