• 2019-2023 Oregon SCORP Plan


Oregon Parkland Mapping Project

From past SCORP planning surveys we know that:

• Many Oregon communities need assistance with park system planning.

• Many communities (30% of responding communities) do not have a recreation, open space, or management plan to identify recreation need.

• Of those with existing plans, many (54%) were more than 5 years old.

2011 Needs and Issues Assessment Survey

In identifying the park and recreation needs of your service area, do you use any specific standards, or measures of deficiency?

Providers within UGBs

Providers outside UGBs


Updated the planning guide in the 2013-2017 SCORP planning process


Established LOS site guidelines for 11 standard parkland classification types


Established LOS facility guidelines for 24 facility types

Instructions recommend comparing existing acres for parkland type with recommended LOS guidelines.


Currently, there is no existing statewide parkland and facilities mapping database for Oregon



Available data appears widespread but lacks detail

With mapping coordinates for parklands and facilities, we could identify when the population resides too far away from specific parkland locations.



Potential statewide mapping database uses:

• Allow jurisdictions to generate LOS parkland and facility maps for park system planning.

• Identify target areas for addressing key SCORP issues.

• Provide land managers with critical information for cross-jurisdictional resource protection efforts.

• Provide a foundation for a one-stop website providing the public with information about park and recreation lands and facilities throughout the state.


Key project components:

• Establish a technical advisory committee

• Develop GIS database standards for parkland data

• Finalize a parkland classification system and park amenities list

• Conduct a statewide spatial parkland and amenity inventory

• Assemble demographic data required for SCORP priorities

• Develop a mapping interface website for the project
