color:blue'>Precisely. That is what I was trying to point out in my
question about a week and a half ago. There are several city limits layers
out there, none of which seem to be accurate. I have been using the FGDL
layer based on parcel data, but it has some holes in it. The TIGER data
and FDEP layers are old and don’t represent recent incorporations and
annexations that have occurred in the last few years. Another problem is
that all the city limits layers that are out there do not agree with the county
boundary layers, creating problems with spatial joins. So if anyone knows
of city limit data that is up-to-date and consistent with county boundary data,
let us know.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there an up-to-date (and accurate) municipal boundary
layer for Florida? I’m currently using the City Limits data from
FGDL, but there seems to be inconsistencies when it’s compared to
official documents such as future land use maps in comprehensive plans.
Any suggestions?<o:p></o:p></p>
