This map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Map.2009 seagate.campus usf.sarasota-manatee 83d40m in.public.domain.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |
Summary
| Description | scan of the initial map of the Seagate campus of University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee from a publicly-available copyright-free document published by this state university; the campus was created on the eastern portion of Seagate, a property platted under that name in the early 1920s on property that had been homesteaded in the 1800s by Elizabeth and Lavanius Dunham, M.D., developed in 1929 by Gwendolyn and Powel Crosley as a fishing camp and elegant winter retreat built on the bay front, purchased and resided in by Mable and Freeman Horton in 1948, a large portion of which was acquired by the state in 1991 after an acquisition campaign by Friends of Seagate and divided into two portions, the western portion being overseen by Manatee County as a historical site and, the eastern portion that became a new satellite campus for USF in Tampa when it separated from the New College campus; the entire property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, but contrary to design, the uplands pine forest was cleared for parking lots rather than building the planned parking garage — replaces image uploaded on May 25, 2010 |

This work was created by a government unit (including state, county, and municipal government agencies) of the U.S. state of Florida. It is a public record that was not created by an agency which state law has allowed to claim copyright and is therefore in the public domain in the United States.
Definition of "public record"
Public records are works "made or received in connection with the official business of any public body, officer, or employee of the state, or persons acting on their behalf, [which includes the work of] the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government and each agency or department created thereunder; counties, municipalities, and districts; and each constitutional officer, board, and commission, or entity created pursuant to [Florida] law or [its] Constitution" (Florida Constitution, §24) such as a work made or received pursuant to law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by any state, county, district, or other unit of government created or established by law of the State of Florida (definition of public work found in Chapter 119.011(12), Florida Statutes). Agencies permitted to claim copyright
Florida's Constitution and its statutes do not permit any agency to claim copyright for "public records" unless authorized to do so by law. The following agencies are permitted to claim copyright (as well as trademarks) and any works of these agencies should be assumed to be copyrighted without clear evidence to the contrary:
Works by defunct state agencies may be copyrighted if these rights were transferred to a new or different agency (note that legislation transferring such right may not have been codified into Florida Statutes). For example, copyright in works by the Florida Space Authority may have been transferred to Space Florida. State and municipal government agencies may claim copyright for software created by the agency (§ 119.084, F.S. 2018). In case law, Microdecisions, Inc. v. Skinner—889 So. 2d 871 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004) (Findlaw)—held that the Collier County Property Appraiser could not require commercial users to enter into a licensing agreement, holding that "[the agency] has no authority to assert copyright protection in the GIS maps, which are public records." Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may be "public records", their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to the image unless the contract with the agency says otherwise.
