We are a Not for Profit 501(c)(3) (status pending) Public Charity. We are =
preparing the budget for the following project: We have found that the gove=
rnment agencies throughout the State of Florida are either unable or unwill=
ing to provide to the public, in an easy to understand form, mapping inform=
ation about Florida's Public Waterways. As you may or may not be aware, th=
e State of Florida has approximately three thousand miles of navigable wate=
rways that include rivers and drainage canals. What we propose is to put o=
n our Corporate Website, that is currently under construction, some type of=
user friendly map information system divided into two parts.=20=20
Part I- This will be a map representation of the specific body of water, wh=
ether it be a canal, river or lake. This representation should identify th=
e body of water, its location in relation to more well known landmarks, the=
boat ramps and docks and in the case of certain waterways, the location of=
boat fuel and bait shops. We would post this on the Public Side of our Cor=
porate Website.=20=20
Part II - On the Members Only Section of our Corporate Website, we would wa=
nt additional information to include thermal mapping and topographic contou=
rs of the bottom of said waterway. All of this presented in a three dimens=
ional representation with an easy to use, user interface.=20
The reasons that we feel this information is necessary is that we believe f=
ish hold closer to structure (naturally occurring topographic formations), =
not cover (sunken tree limbs, boats, piers, docks, etc.)
I realize that this project could be very expensive. What I need to know i=
s can it be done, how long would it take and how much money would be requir=
ed to achieve these goals? We are also looking to assemble a volunteer com=
mittee to develop and supervise the project. If any of you have thoughts o=
n this that you would like to share or could point us in a direction to fin=
d the information we need, we would greatly appreciate it. We understand th=
at what you do is an extremely technical and precise profession. We are, b=
y no stretch of the imagination, map experts.
Come look at our one web page, found at www.flabass.org for a brief descrip=
tion of our organization and if possible, respond to me at dposner@flabass.=
org.
