Experience & practicality

Two transparent read-time scores. Unknown facts never count for or against a place, and a score is never used as filter evidence.

Experience

Published recreation and setting.

Not enough data. Only 2 relevant facts have been published for this record, so no score is shown rather than an invented one.

—/ 10

Not enough data. Only 1 relevant fact has been published for this record, so no score is shown rather than an invented one.

Why

Cost is published

Not enough published evidence for an overall score. Nothing here is guessed to fill the gap.

Methodology nmr-score-3.0.0. Park-level activities feed Experience only; campsite facts feed Practicality only. Experience measures how much recreation and setting evidence is published; Practicality is the published positive share scaled by how much of the logistics catalogue has been documented, so a handful of positives can no longer read 10/10. Unknown is never treated as a no. Neither dimension is used to filter search results, and “Best” ordering ranks fully supported records above partially supported ones.
