public bathrooms
The question usually focuses on demand, which can be difficult to determine when the facilities are outdoors. The National Park Service {cost-efficiently determines} park restroom demand by 1) recording complaints and other feedback from park users about the lack of toilet facilities in a location, and 2) placing portable sanitation units (PSUs) in that location and monitoring their use based on the volume of waste removed.
