* Metric Name: Trail Density *  

* Tier: 2  

* Data Vintage: 2023  

* Unit Of Measure: Continuous, km/km2 of trails  

* Represent element and pillar: Yes  

* Type and distribution of data: Zero-inflated, right-skewed distribution representing continuous values. Raw data ranges from 0 to 16.525.  

* Translation: Where is trail density the highest?  

* Translation method and outcome: Raw data values translated to range from +1 to -1 representing more favorable to less favorable conditions, respectively. **** The proposition of more favorable is based on the objective of higher trail density (positive linear slope). More favorable (translated to +1) set at 4.846, and less favorable (translated to -1) set at > 0.
