Deer land cover utility (LCU) score datasets (TRS, township, and county)

This file contains the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) land cover utility score (deer LCU score) datasets for every TRS (township, range, and section), township, and county in Illinois, USA. The file is an Excel spreadsheet with a metadata sheet, separate sheets for the deer LCU scores for each spatial level, and a sheet with the data required to replicate how the deer LCU score approach was validated. The deer LCU score is a unitless value, with larger scores corresponding to a spatial unit with more and/or better deer habitat.

本文件收录了美国伊利诺伊州每个TRS（镇、范围和区段）、镇和县的白尾鹿（Odocoileus virginianus）土地利用效用评分（鹿LCU评分）数据集。该文件为Excel电子表格，包含元数据表、各个空间级别鹿LCU评分的独立表格，以及用于复制验证鹿LCU评分方法所需数据的表格。鹿LCU评分是一个无单位值，较大的评分对应于具有更多和/或更好鹿栖息地的空间单元。
