Data Source and Calculation
This data source will be a report of monthly attendance by park for a calendar year. The attendance summary includes a count of paying camping and cabin guests. During the reservation process, the number of guests is entered for each site. A report provides the total occupancy for a date range. Paying day users and non-paying day users are calculated by parking fees and traffic counters. The attendance data includes all parks.
