Data Sheet 2_Forest visitation and utilization along agricultural intensification gradient

Seven tropical landscapes in low and middle income countries were studied using remote sensing and household surveys. The dataset analyzes forest cover change effects on household resource use and visitation along agricultural intensification gradients. It was authored by Ronju Ahammad and last updated on March 17, 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between agricultural intensification and forest visitation based on survey and remote sensing data.
• Assessing the impact of forest types and changes on household use of forest-sourced food and construction materials.
• Evaluating site-specific trends in forest ownership and household demand for ecosystem services across intensification zones.
• Informing integrated landscape approaches for sustainable forest management and agricultural production.

Strengths

• Data integrates remote sensing imagery with household surveys for a multi-method approach.
• Analysis covers seven distinct tropical landscapes across low and middle income countries.
• Dataset is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Dataset size is 52.7 KB, indicating a very limited scope or summary-level data.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
