Description: FLORIDA FOREVER BOT PROJECTS (layer name FFBOT): This is a polygon data layer for Florida Forever Board of Trustees (BOT) projects (formerly known as CARL projects). This data layer is site-based and contains boundaries of all Florida Forever BOT projects approved by the State's Acquisition and Restoration Council as of August 11, 2023. These lands have been proposed for acquisition because of outstanding natural resources, opportunity for natural resource-based recreation, or historical and archaeological resources. However, these areas may not be currently managed for their resource value. Portions of these projects may have already been acquired by the State and/or its acquisition partners.
Description: This dataset includes a Conservation 2040 scenario for future development for Florida developed as part of the Sea Level 2040/2070 project. Sea Level 2040/2070 is a joint effort of the University of Florida's Center for Landscape Conservation Planning, 1000 Friends of Florida, and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Sea Level 2040/2070 produced five land use/population distribution scenarios, Baseline, Sprawl 2040/2070, and Conservation 2040/2070. The 2040 scenarios are based on future population projection data produced by the Florida Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR). Sprawl 2040 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2040, should all new development occur in greenfields at 2019 gross development densities. Conservation 2040 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2040 that assumes increased gross development densities for new greenfield development over those of 2019, and protection of additional agricultural and natural lands. Conservation 2040 scenario indicates that it is possible to accommodate future population growth, while avoiding development of priority agricultural and natural lands.

Description: This dataset contains a representation of developed lands projected to occur in Florida in the Sprawl 2070 scenario from the Sea Level 2040/2070 project. Sea Level 2040/2070 is a joint effort of the University of Florida's Center for Landscape Conservation Planning, 1000 Friends of Florida, and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Sea Level 2040/2070 produced five land use/population distribution scenarios, Baseline, Sprawl 2040/2070, and Conservation 2040/2070. The two 2070 scenarios are based on a population projection derived from data produced by the Florida Bureau of Economic and Business Research. The Baseline captures the patterns of land use and associated population distribution that existed in 2019. Sprawl 2070 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2070, should all new development occur in greenfields at the same gross development density as was present in each county in 2010. Conservation 2070 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2070 that assumes increased levels of redevelopment of existing urban areas, increased gross development densities in greenfields over those of 2010, and protection for additional agricultural and natural lands.
