Pay Item Cross Reference Guide

FDOT has developed a Pay Item Cross Reference Guide to provide information on suggested ITSFM forms and import templates as cross-referenced to FDOT Pay Item numbers. Once you populate your project pay item numbers, this guide will inform you of:


  • What does and what does not need to be GPS mapped
  • Which attribute forms should be brought to the field for as-built data collection
  • What forms and feature import templates should be included in the final deliverable
