The call of the wild: Investigating the potential for ecoacoustic methods in mapping wilderness areas [PDF]
Science of the Total Environment, 2019 The critical importance of wilderness areas (WAs) for biodiversity conservation and human well-being is well established yet mapping criteria on which WA management policies are based take neither into account. Current WA mapping methods are framed in terms of absence of anthropogenic influence, and created using visual satellite data, obviating ...

A Comparative Analysis of Approaches to Wilderness Perception Mapping
Journal of Environmental Management, 1994A current problem for protected area management is contending with increasing backcountry use, notably that use which is directed toward wilderness experiences. The notion of multiple perceptions of wilderness suggest that a variety of wildernesses can be defined and managed in such a way as to minimize user impacts while maximizing user satisfaction ...

Mapping wilderness in China: Comparing and integrating Boolean and WLC approaches [PDF]
Landscape and Urban Planning, 2019 Wilderness protection is increasingly important in the era of the Sixth Extinction and the Anthropocene. Mapping environmental indicators along a continuum of human modification provides key information for wilderness protection. However, uncertainty may occur in identifying wilderness areas by reclassifying wilderness continuum maps. In this study, an

Linking wilderness mapping and connectivity modelling: A methodological framework for wildland network planning [PDF]
Biological Conservation, 2020 Habitat fragmentation is one of the key drivers of global biodiversity loss. In this context, connectivity modelling is increasingly important for effective conservation. Most previous studies on connectivity modelling are based on focal species, while fewer studies focus on models based on landscape naturalness or wildness. We propose a methodological

Detection likelihood maps for wilderness search and rescue
2012 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC), 2012Every year there are numerous cases of individuals becoming lost in remote wilderness environments. Principles of search theory have become a foundation for developing more efficient and successful search and rescue methods. Measurements can be taken that describe how easily a search object is to detect.

Wilderness Perception Mapping.
New Zealand Geographer, 1995ABSTRACTMapping actual and predicted perceptions of wilderness enables the impact of resource use activities upon wilderness to be modelled. The Heaphy Road in the Northwest portion of New Zealand's South Island is used to evaluate the effects of a particular scenario on perceived wilderness.

Mapping Potential Wilderness in China with Location-based Services Data
Applied Spatial Analysis and Policy, 2019Wilderness mapping can provide valuable information for natural resource management. In this article, a novel, straightforward approach has been developed to identify wilderness areas in China using emerging new data. Tencent LBS (location based service) data that reflect human activities are used as a basis for mapping wilderness characteristics for ...

Linking the Wilderness Perception Mapping Concept to the Recreation Opportunity Spectrum
Environmental Management, 1998/ This paper examines the application of a wilderness perception mapping (WPM) approach to enhancingthe recreation opportunity spectrum (ROS). WPM provides a greater understanding of the multiple relationships between wilderness environments and wilderness user experience.
