Abstract:
- This data publication contains vector data (shapefile and geopackage) representing visitation and economic benefits estimated at the fireshed level within the ten initial investment landscapes of the USDA Forest Service Wildfire Crisis Strategy, which are within Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington. Visitation was estimated using digital mobility data (geolocated social media posts) and established methods for calculating the economic benefit of recreation to forest sites. Data include estimates of annual visitation and economic benefits between 2017 and 2022 for 163 fireshed polygons.
-
Purpose:
- Tools and initiatives to prioritize landscapes for restoration and fuels reduction, such as the Wildfire Crisis Strategy, should incorporate human values, including recreation values. Adequately incorporating recreation values into landscape prioritization requires consistent, fine-grain spatial data on recreation uses and values, yet recreation data are typically unavailable at that resolution. These data provide estimates of recreational use and the associated economic benefits of existing recreation by fireshed, which is the spatial resolution that is commonly used in landscape prioritization.

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
- To assess the accuracy of the visitation estimates at the fireshed level, we compared our modeled visitation estimates to visitation estimates from the USDA Forest Service National Visitor Use Monitoring Program (NVUM, https://www.fs.usda.gov/about-agency/nvum). We used the “all forest information approach” detailed in White et al. (2007) to construct estimates of visits to the fireshed areas of national forests with lands in the initial investment landscapes. We used NVUM sample data and NVUM inventory data from “Round 4” of that program which covers the federal fiscal years 2016 through 2019. Each national forest has one visit estimate for one year during that period. We compared NVUM Round 4 visitation estimates for each fireshed (as determined from the White et al. 2007 approach and combining the NVUM sample data and NVUM inventory data) to the annual average of our modeled visitation estimates for the period 2017-2022. The resulting Pearson correlation was 0.71 and the Spearman correlation was 0.79. The relationship between modeled visitation and NVUM estimates of visitation was stronger at higher levels of visitation. Although the date ranges of our modeled estimates do not line up exactly with the Round 4 sampling period, we chose to use Round 4 because it was the most recent, complete NVUM sampling dataset.

-
Logical_Consistency_Report:
- The data are logically consistent. The consistency was verified as part of the quality assurance that occurred during data analysis.
-
Completeness_Report:
- The fireshed polygons in this data publication represent the portion of the fireshed that is within the surface ownership of the USDA Forest Service and located within one of the ten initial investment landscapes. For most fireshed polygons, only a portion of the fireshed was located on USDA Forest Service surface ownership. Any fireshed polygons that were smaller than 2 square kilometers after clipping were removed from the data.

Process_Description:
- First, geospatial data were collected and processed to create a set of polygons in the analysis.
To create the final polygons in the geospatial vector data, we performed the following steps:
1. Filter the Surface Ownership Parcels to OWNERCLASS = "USDA FOREST SERVICE."
2. Filter the Landscape Investments boundaries to only the 10 initial investment landscapes detailed in "Confronting the Wildfire Crisis" (USDA Forest Service 2022).
3. Intersect the Landscape Investment boundaries with Surface Ownership Parcels to limit landscapes to only USFS-owned lands.
4. Intersect the USFS-owned landscapes with Fireshed layer (Evers et al. 2020).
5. Remove resulting polygons that have an area smaller than 2 square kilometers.
6. Add a unique name and site ID for each resulting polygon.

Process_Description:
- After developing the polygons for analysis, we obtained geolocated social media posts from the platforms eBird, Twitter, Flickr, and AllTrails made during calendar years 2017 through 2022 that were located within the analysis polygons. We then calculated social media user-days for each platform and polygon. User-days are defined as the total number of unique users who appear in a polygon by day (Wood et al. 2013). AllTrails user-days were the number of unique users who posted trip reports that were associated with trails that began inside fireshed polygons. User-days of eBird posts were the number of unique users who uploaded a bird checklist within a fireshed polygon on a given day. For Flickr and Twitter, user-days were the number of unique users per day who shared images or other content that was created within the fireshed polygon (Fisher et al. 2018).
Next, we used a visitation model based on that described in Wood et al. (2020) to estimate visitation by fireshed. The visitation model was parameterized using counts of visits by day collected on-site at 89 trails in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and the user-days of activity on the social media platforms (AllTrails, eBird, Flickr, and Twitter), as well as precipitation, holidays, and calendar year. The model estimated weekly visitation which we summed to produce estimates of total annual visitation for the years 2017 through 2022.
Finally, we developed estimates of aggregate economic benefit to recreationists by multiplying average economic benefit values by estimated visitation per fireshed. We constructed average economic benefit values for each of the national forests represented in our fireshed data using the activity-specific benefit values and associated parameters reported in Rosenberger et al. (2017) and estimates of the share of visits by primary activity for each national forest based on the Round 4 NVUM sample data. For each represented national forest we calculated an average economic benefit value per visit that reflected the activity patterns observed on that forest (in the NVUM data) and then multiplied the average economic benefit value by the number of visits for each year 2017 through 2022.
