shrug-l: Identifier convention for Florida Municipalities and   Counties






We are looking for a standard (e.g., numeric) designation for Florida 
counties and municipalities (cities) that we can use as a unique 
identifier in a polygon coverage. Can anyone direct me to such a coding 
system?

Thanks
Bob Swett
