Indiana Uplands Parks, Recreation, and Protected Lands Inventory and Opportunity Map

The Eppley Institute for Parks and Public Lands, housed in the School of Public Health, worked with Indiana communities on a regional assessment of trails, and public, non-profit, and private land to identify and collect baseline data (comprehensive inventory) on parks, recreation, protected areas, and public land resources. The project analyzed capability for Brown, Crawford, Daviess, Dubois, Greene, Lawrence, Martin, Monroe, Orange, Owen, and Washington counties in order to identify gaps and make recommendations for improvement that would assist communities with economic sustainability, health, and quality of life.
