ELEMENT_OCCURRENCES_FNAI
The data set was developed to assist public and private organizations in efforts to conserve important elements of biodiversity within the state of Florida.
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>ELEMENT OCCURRENCE POLYGON DATA LAYER - This is a polygon data layer locating the occurrences of endangered or rare plants and animals, high quality natural communities and other occurrences of natural resource interest in the Florida Natural Areas Inventory (FNAI) database. An "Element" is any exemplary or rare component of the natural environment, such as a species, plant community, bird rookery, spring, sinkhole, cave or other ecological feature. An "Element Occurrence" (EO) represents the locational record of an element and is a single extant habitat which sustains or otherwise contributes to the survival of a population or a distinct, self-sustaining example of a particular natural community. EO representations may have area added to account for uncertainty in the actual location of an observation (in the case of historical musuem records for example). Please see additional supporting documentation for an explanation of proper interpretation of EO shapes.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

A text field for denoting a specific instance of the element. The attribute will assume one of two forms depending on whether this instance is an independent principal Element Occurrence or whether it is part of a group of related occurrences. Element occurrences of the first type are denoted by "xxx", where xxx is an integer number unique for each principal Element Occurrence of the element. Grouped (or nested) occurrences will always be comprised of a single "parent" (or principal) EO and nested within it two or more "sub-EOs". Sub-EOs , where used, thus refer to local subpopulations of the parent EO. For nested EOs the notation "xxx_yyy" is used, where xxx is an integer number for the parent Element Occurrence and yyy is an integer number uniquely identifying a sub_EO (subpopulation) nested within the parent. The notation "xxx_0" represents a special case and is used to identify the parent in a nested relationship.

Element Occurrence Rank - A code for the overall rank of the Element Occurrence. Assigned by FNAI staff according to Nature Serve guidelines and are indicative of overall viability of the occurrence. Overall viability combines factors such as size, condition, and threats to persistence from the neighboring landscape.
FNAI ranks of quality of the element occurrence in terms of its viability (EORANK). Viability is estimated using a combination of factors that contribute to continued survival of the element at the location. Among these are the size of the EO, general condition of the EO at the site, and the conditions of the landscape surrounding the EO (e.g. an immediate threat to an EO by local development pressure could lower an EO rank).
A = Excellent estimated viability
A? = Possibly excellent estimated viability
AB = Excellent or good estimated viability
AC = Excellent, good, or fair estimated viability
B = Good estimated viability
B? = Possibly good estimated viability
BC = Good or fair estimated viability
BD = Good, fair, or poor estimated viability
C = Fair estimated viability
C? = Possibly fair estimated viability
CD = Fair or poor estimated viability
D = Poor estimated viability
D? = Possibly poor estimated viability
E = Verified extant (viability not assessed)
F = Failed to find
H = Historical
NR = Not ranked, a placeholder when an EO is not (yet) ranked.
U = Unrankable
X = Extirpated
*For additional detail on the above ranks see: http://www.natureserve.org/explorer/eorankguide.htm FNAI also uses the following EO ranks: H? = Possibly historical
F? = Possibly failed to find
X? = Possibly extirpated
The following offers further explanation of the H and X ranks as they are used by FNAI:
The rank of H is used when there is a lack of recent field information verifying the continued existence of an EO, such as (a) when an EO is based only on historical collections data; or (b) when an EO was ranked A, B, C, D, or E at one time and is later, without field survey work, considered to be possibly extirpated due to general habitat loss or degradation of the environment in the area. This definition of the H rank is dependent on an interpretation of what constitutes "recent" field information. Generally, if there is no known survey of an EO within the last 20 to 40 years, it should be assigned an H rank. While these time frames represent suggested maximum limits, the actual time period for historical EOs may vary according to the biology of the element and the specific landscape context of each occurrence (including anthropogenic alteration of the environment). Thus, an H rank may be assigned to an EO before the maximum time frames have lapsed. Occurrences that have not been surveyed for periods exceeding these time frames should not be ranked A, B, C, or D. The higher maximum limit for plants and communities (i.e., ranging from 20 to 40 years) is based upon the assumption that occurrences of these elements generally have the potential to persist at a given location for longer periods of time. This greater potential is a reflection of plant biology and community dynamics. However, landscape factors must also be considered. Thus, areas with more anthropogenic impacts on the environment (e.g., development) will be at the lower end of the range, and less-impacted areas will be at the higher end. The rank of X is assigned to EOs for which there is documented destruction of habitat or environment, or persuasive evidence of eradication based on adequate survey (i.e., thorough or repeated survey efforts by one or more experienced observers at times and under conditions appropriate for the Element at that location).

Global Rank - The rank which best characterizes the relative rarity or endangerment of the species or community worldwide.
Using a ranking system developed by The Nature Conservancy and the Natural Heritage Program Network, the Florida Natural Areas Inventory assigns two ranks for each element. The global element rank is based on an element's worldwide status; the state element rank is based on the status of the element in Florida. Element ranks are based on many factors, the most important ones being estimated number of Element Occurrences (EOs), estimated abundance (number of individuals for species; area for natural communities), range, estimated number of adequately protected EOs, relative threat of destruction, and ecological fragility.
FNAI GLOBAL ELEMENT RANK
G1 = Critically imperiled globally because of extreme rarity (5 or fewer occurrences or less than 1000 individuals) or because of extreme vulnerability to extinction due to some natural or man-made factor. G2 = Imperiled globally because of rarity (6 to 20 occurrences or less than 3000 individuals) or because of vulnerability to extinction due to some natural or man-made factor. G3 = Either very rare and local throughout its range (21-100 occurrences or less than 10,000 individuals) or found locally in a restricted range or vulnerable to extinction from other factors. G4 = Apparently secure globally (may be rare in parts of range).
G5 = Demonstrably secure globally.
GH = Of historical occurrence throughout its range, may be rediscovered (e.g., ivory-billed woodpecker).
GX = Believed to be extinct throughout range.
GXC = Extirpated from the wild but still known from captivity or cultivation.
G#? = Tentative rank (e.g., G2?).
G#G# = Range of rank; insufficient data to assign specific global rank (e.g., G2G3).
G#T# = Rank of a taxonomic subgroup such as a subspecies or variety; the G portion of the rank refers to the entire species and the T portion refers to the specific subgroup; numbers have same definition as above (e.g., G3T1).
G#Q = Rank of questionable species - ranked as species but questionable whether it is species or subspecies; numbers have same definition as above (e.g., G2Q).
G#T#Q = Same as above, but validity as subspecies or variety is questioned.
GU = Unrankable; due to a lack of information no rank or range can be assigned (e.g., GUT2).
GNA = Ranking is not applicable because the element is not a suitable target for conservation (e.g. a hybrid species). GNR = Element not yet ranked (temporary).
GNRTNR = Neither the element nor the taxonomic subgroup has yet been ranked.

(ST* for Ursus americanus floridanus (Florida black bear) indicates that this status does not apply in Baker and Columbia counties and in the Apalachicola National Forest. ST* for Neovison vison pop.1 (Southern mink, South Florida population) indicates that this status applies to the Everglades population only.)
SSC = Listed as Species of Special Concern by the FFWCC. Defined as a population which warrants special protection, recognition, or consideration because it has an inherent significant vulnerability to habitat modification, environmental alteration, human disturbance, or substantial human exploitation which, in the foreseeable future, may result in its becoming a threatened species. (SSC* indicates that a species has SSC status only in selected portions of its range in Florida. SSC* for Pandion haliaetus (Osprey) indicates that this status applies in Monroe county only.)

Estimated size (acres) of a polygon-shaped spatial representation of the element occurrence. The occurrences presented in this theme are all point-based, and represent the centroid of the polygon that would be needed to represent the occurrence if one were to account for the actual size of the observed area of the element at this location, plus an additional area that must be added due to uncertainty as to the true location of the occurrence. For example, suppose someone in 1997 had observed the occupied nest of a rare bird species and obtained uncorrected GPS coordinates for the location of the nest. The actual observed area of this occurrence is small (by convention, the smallest area we map is a circle of 12.5 m diameter). Now, suppose we wanted to draw a circle that we were reasonably sure contained the true location of the nest. To do this we might find we needed to draw a circle of 200 m diameter in order to account for position error due to the uncorrected nature of the GPS data. The EO size attribute for this example would be the area of the 200m diameter circle. Note that the EO size for this example would be quite large relative to the area actually observed. A user of these data must use this field in conjunction with representation accuracy (below) in order to achieve a better understanding of the fact that the element occurrence may not occur exactly at the location of the ?dot? on the map, and that the extent of the element at the site may be greater than that implied by a point feature.

Representation accuracy. This is the relative amount of the total EO size (see above) that is comprised of the actual observed area of the element. Domain values are very low (>0%, <=5%), low (>5%, <=20%), medium (>20%, <=80%), high (>80%<, <=95%), very high (>95%), unknown, and ZZ (not assessed).Thus, for the example given above, representation accuracy would be low (i.e., the observed area is small compared to the area of uncertainty or, put another way, the EO size attribute is a lot bigger than what was actually seen in the field). This field should always be used in conjunction with the EO size attribute. Only through consideration of these fields together can a user obtain a sense of the uncertainty inherent in the location of the mapped point and the extent of the observation of the element at the site.
