<p class="MsoNormal">Please note that the county boundaries between Martin and St. Lucie counties were changed -

<p class="MsoNormal">There is a new layer added to the GIS library – TIGER 2015 Counties, under the ‘Boundary’ button in DataMiner which reflects these boundary changes.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please note that the older county boundary layer TIGER 2010 Counties will be removed from the GIS library on

<p class="MsoNormal">The Florida Natural Areas Inventory (FNAI) has recently released a new polygon Element Occurrences layer which replaces the point Element Occurrence layer currently available in the GIS library. The new polygon layer from FNAI has been
added under the ‘FNAI’ button in DataMiner:<o:p></o:p></p>
