Florida wetland map
by address.

Search an address or parcel ID to compare mapped wetlands, soils, flood zones and terrain.

Preparing your map… Use text-based regulatory data and official sources if it does not load.

Map disclaimer: Maps are for preliminary screening only. Wetlands may be present even where none are mapped. Have a qualified wetland professional verify conditions and boundaries on site before making property or project decisions. Data & limitations ↗

Check for wetlands on your property

Search a Florida address or parcel ID, confirm the parcel, and compare wetland, soil and flood layers. Use our property wetlands checklist to interpret what you find and plan field verification.

This is preliminary desktop screening and does not replace field delineation, a survey, or a jurisdictional determination. An unmapped location is not evidence that wetlands or flood hazards are absent. Data dates, coverage, and accuracy vary by source.

Is this a wetland delineation map?

This map supports preliminary property research. A qualified professional must verify wetland conditions and boundaries in the field; mapped polygons do not establish a surveyed or jurisdictional wetland boundary.

Wetlands & flood hazards

Compare mapped wetlands and effective flood zones. These layers support preliminary screening and do not establish regulatory boundaries. Wetland acreage describes the full selected NWI polygon, rather than the portion inside your parcel.

Soils & elevation

View soil map units, hydric component percentages and modeled elevation at a selected point. Soil boundaries are not hydric-only areas. Elevation is an estimate in feet, rather than a survey or a range for the whole parcel.

Terrain, parcels & land cover

Explore elevation, parcel outlines and land-cover context. Source dates, coverage and detail vary by location. Parcel outlines are tax-map boundaries, rather than surveyed property lines. Open the detailed notes below for terrain colors, fallback sources and coverage limits.

Wetlands and flood mapping

NWI polygons are served through Florida DEP’s publication and may lag the national inventory. They describe mapped wetland features, not regulatory boundaries. Acreage refers to the full selected NWI polygon, not the portion within a parcel. FEMA values describe the selected point and available effective mapping.

Soil map units and point elevation

NRCS boundaries show soil map units, not hydric-only areas. The location panel reports the map unit’s hydric component percentage where available. USGS elevation is a modeled point estimate in feet, not a survey or a parcel elevation range.

Terrain colors, resolution and fallback imagery

Live USGS 3DEP bare-earth rainbow elevation (with a gray hillshade option) is available in the LiDAR / terrain layer. The Elevation 1 style uses blue for low and red for high. Local view mode stretches the range across each exported view; fixed 0–30, 0–100 and 0–350 foot ranges keep colors comparable across views.

At wide views (zoom 6–9), a fast USGS regional shaded-relief overview remains visible while the colored elevation or gray hillshade loads. Wider-area exports use less display detail and slow requests retry at reduced resolution. If live elevation cannot load, the regional relief stays visible and is clearly labeled as a fallback.

This overview includes coarser GMTED2010 terrain at the widest scales; it is not detailed local LiDAR. Zoom in for the available local terrain detail. It uses mixed-resolution elevation models, including LiDAR-derived terrain where available; it is not a raw point-cloud viewer or survey. Coverage, acquisition date, and detail vary by location.

Parcel boundaries and searches

Parcel outlines and parcel IDs from the loaded view come from the official FGIO/FDOR statewide cadastral service. If it is unavailable, the map uses Florida DEP’s older public cadastral layer, labeled 2023, and identifies the fallback beside the layer and returned parcel IDs. Source metadata dates differ, so verify the actual vintage and current boundaries with the county property appraiser. County updates and coverage vary; these are tax-map boundaries, not surveyed property lines. Parcel outlines appear at zoom 15+; dense views are capped and labeled partial.

Choose Address or place to find a location, or Parcel ID for exact matches from statewide parcel records. Parcel IDs can repeat across counties; confirm the result’s coordinates and source. A selected parcel is highlighted, and environmental values describe a sample point inside it, not the whole parcel.

Land-cover data

FWC Cooperative Land Cover v4.0 (published November 2025) is connected at zoom 11+ and in selected-point results. Its mixed source dates and classification do not replace current field mapping. Check county records and source datasets before making project decisions.

Wildlife and EA sources

Historical eagle nesting polygons are FWC records from 1998–2017, not current nest coordinates or survey results. The separate EagleWatch nest-point layer is Audubon’s public view linked by FWC. It includes reported Occupied, Inactive, Unknown and Destroyed records; these are not a guarantee of current activity. The publisher describes existing-nest statuses through the 2025 season and new records added during 2026; the October 2026 service-update date does not mean every nest was recently surveyed. Confirm nest status before work that could affect eagles. Panther polygons are USFWS focus areas, not a complete current consultation boundary. A point outside either layer is not species clearance. The revised Florida bonneted bat consultation map is available through the official guidance link in Layers. See the Regulatory Data workbench for county-based listed vertebrates, IPaC, FNAI, and current agency guidance.

Address and place searches are sent to Photon’s public search service (OpenStreetMap data). Parcel IDs are sent to the public FGIO/FDOR parcel service or Florida DEP fallback. If you choose “My location,” your coordinates are used for map and public-data requests. Nothing is saved to a WetlandAgent server.
