The Trust for Public Land’s ParkServe® builds on the success of ParkScore®, taking the measure of 10-minute walk park accessibility to cities and towns across America. Phase one of ParkServe® is now complete, and the first-of-its-kind platform includes the locations and 10-minute walk service areas for all parks, playgrounds and natural areas offering public recreational opportunities in nearly 14,000 cities, towns, and communities in the US. The data platform measures 10-minute walk park access for over 80% of the US population. |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>ParkServe® includes a comprehensive standardized database of local parks in nearly 14,000 cities, towns and communities. Census designated urban areas were used to define where to collect and create local data for cities, towns and communities. For each city, town and community, geographic boundaries were obtained from the US Census 2010 Places geospatial dataset and associated population estimates are derived from ESRI’s 2018 Demographic Forecasts. The ParkServe® team attempted to contact each city, town and community with a request for their parks data. If no GIS data was provided, the ParkServe® team created GIS data for the place based on available resources, such as park information from municipal websites, GIS data available from counties and states, and satellite imagery.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Cities, towns and communities were then emailed a link to view the park data compiled in their area to verify the boundaries and attributes of the parks in the database through our custom web-based ParkReviewer™ application.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">ParkServe® Data Inclusion</SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>Property eligibility criteria for ParkServe®:</SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>- Publicly-owned local, state, and national parks</SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>- School parks with a joint-use agreement with the local government.
