Examines potential of crowdsourced data for assessing protected area importance. Compares and evaluates multiple crowdsourced data with protected area visitor counts. Found significant correlations between crowdsourced data and protected area visitation. PPGIS methods better suited than VGI to assess full range of protected area values. Data completeness limits crowdsourced applications to more popular protected areas.
