This grant aims to determine the value and societal benefits derived from Mid Level Resolution Imagery (MLRI) data, which has been publicly available for over thirty years. The initiative will identify and classify MLRI users, enhance understanding of data uses and applications, and estimate its societal benefit in decision-making processes. Critical to this effort, the DARE Economists will provide specialized assistance to conduct complex statistical analysis of the Landsat survey’s nonmarket valuation questions. This analysis involves custom statistical programming, as standard commercial software packages lack the necessary procedures for the double-bounded dichotomous choice contingent valuation questions.
