Description: The Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS) is the land classification system the Forest Service uses to describe recreation settings and opportunities across forest lands. ROS has six distinct classes in a continuum (primitive, semi-primitive non-motorized, semi-primitive motorized, roaded natural, rural, and urban) ranging from primitive and undeveloped settings to highly modified and developed settings. The level of access, development, and social encounters increases when moving from primitive to urban on the spectrum. The level of remoteness and solitude increases when moving from urban to primitive on the spectrum. Forests’ existing summer ROS is inventoried and mapped using the Forest Service’s National Recreation Opportunity Spectrum Inventory Mapping Protocol, a geographic information system (GIS) mapping procedure that identifies mapping criteria and provides repeatable instructions to inventory, map, and classify existing ROS settings. This National mapping protocol is used to reduce variations within and across Forest Service administrative boundaries and help the agency effectively communicate recreation settings and opportunities on the Forest to the public. This protocol focuses on providing a product which informs existing conditions for the forest plan assessment phase of the three phase planning framework (FSH 1909.12 Chapter 10, section 13.4). It is also used as a starting point for integrating with other resource values and deriving desired ROS settings later in the plan revision process (FSH 1909.12 Chapter 20, section 23.23).
