California Department of Fish and Wildlife 20230508 vector digital data https://filelib.wildlife.ca.gov/Public/BDB/GIS/BIOS/Public_Datasets/3000_3099/ds3076.zip https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/BIOS This is a point layer representing California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW - formerly California Department of Fish and Game - DFG) facilities. In 1995, under the request of John Ellison, the original coverage was created by Teale Data Center using address matching of the DFG phonebook dataset. In March of 1996, Isaac Oshima and Paul Veisze used a SPOT Imagery confirmation process applied to those facilities for which Teale could not find an address match. The update occurred using SPOT View imagery sent to the various DFG facilities. The key personnel were requested to 'ink-in' the actual physical location(s) considered to be the HQ for that particular facility. The maps were then sent back and the correct point was represented in the GIS by a point. In 1999, under Paul Veisze, GIS staff were allocated the task of calling each facility within a region and checking whether the information on file was correct. The dataset was subsequently updated. The data was updated through receiving a database from FASB/Tami Garfio ("telephone and facility List"). Point locations are verified by contacting appropriate CDFW staff or cross referencing with google and yahoo maps, gis roads layer, and imagery.

Most points are placed on the building site by using the DigitalGlobe ImageConnect service. The "EMP_CNT" field or employee headcount for each site is a very rough approximation based on available data. For a more accurate employee count, contact Human Resources.
