In this dissertation, I contribute to an emerging body of research surrounding advances in distributed and cloud computing, web GIS tools, and protected land visitation forecasting in support of these needs. First, I analyze the emerging computing trends, configurations and methods influencing real-time geospatial analytics through the framework of historical web mapping eras. Second, I describe the development and deployment of a web-based decision support tool that incorporates geospatial project management strategies within the U.S. National Park Service&#8217;s Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance program. Third, I compare monthly visitor forecasting methods using geotagged social media data, which supports management efforts to balance protected area visitor experiences and ecological conservation goals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-11501\"
