I am a Data Specialist that maintains the Forest Ecosystem Monitoring Cooperative data archive, and am looking for the "Understory Tree Inventory" dataset (https://www.uvm.edu/femc/data/archive/project/Forest_inventory_nyc_dep/dataset/understory-tree-observations) that has been archived with us. Only the description is available and I'm wondering how I might access that actual data.

Thank you!

Certified copies of datasets related to Street Sign Work Orders SC057249. When and how the sign was installed and removed
Response
Open Data does not conduct individual sign searches or provide certified copies of the records, for that we encourage you to submit a FOIL request via Open Records: https://a860-openrecords.nyc.gov/

FOIL stands for the Freedom of Information Law. The New York State Freedom of Information Law requires government agencies to provide records to the public upon request. Government records affect the lives of each New Yorker, and providing easy access to the records makes government work better. The FOIL definition of records is very broad and includes information found in paper and electronic documents and audio and visual recordings. All records are available upon request, unless an exception in FOIL permits an agency to deny access to a record. Learn more about FOIL requests via this Frequently Asked Questions page.

Hi there, I'm looking to complete a dataset with about 1,200 individual records of addresses, zip codes, and self-reported city council district number. About 500 of them are missing their city council district number.


I work for an organization that works closely with the city and tech companies to train working class adults to become software engineers. We ask applicants for city council district to help with our outreach efforts, but our data is incomplete and self-reported. If we can find an API or something that allows us to calculate people's districts, this would help us tremendously in our outreach and fundraising

Thank you for your request on Citibike data. Lyft, parent company of Citibike, updated their data structure in 2021, replacing a bike shared specific platform to a ride hail platform. The data schema changed as the ride hail platform capture less of the demographic information including age and gender.

Hi, I am looking for a way to aggregate information on property sales in NYC, specifically the sales prices and the mortgage tax paid (or the mortgage amounts).I don't see an API that would help me get this, do you have one?


I am in a data science class and I am doing a project on the Mortgage tax that I want then use as material to send to state legislators to propose lower the tax amount and applying it across the board as a sales tax so it doesn't just impact people who need a mortgage to purchase a home.
Response
The ACRIS – Real Property Master dataset includes a field DOC. AMOUNT which holds the Total Consideration for Transfers and the Principal debt or obligation for Mortgages. For arm’s length transfers like the sale of a home between unrelated parties, the total consideration is the sales price and for most mortgages that are being used to buy a home, the principal debt or obligation is the mortgage amount subject to mortgage recording tax. As such the mortgage recording tax needed for your project can be computed from the principal debt or obligation. The ACRIS – Real Property datasets including the Master dataset with the DOC. AMOUNT field are available via the Open Data SODA API.

This may be due to the fact that some organizations that operate in the City of New York may not fall under the purview of the NYC open data law. You can find further detail on the law here:

active violations.
Response
See below and attached for a response regarding the two Public Inquiries #10314, #10315.

Active violations should be available by using the FDNY Business portal. Go to fdny-business (nyc.gov). You don't have to have a business account. There is a section for no login information needed and there is a User Guide. FDNY Business is easy to access if you have the Building Account Number or Violation Number.

If you don't have an account or login info, you can use the "No Login" button.

<image003.png>


That leads to the portal below. Click on "Violation Search" at the bottom of the page. You will need the violation number. Click on Supporting Documents to view the violation:

<image004.png>

Alternatively, you can search by building. You will need the BIN, which you can easily get from the Department of Buildings’ BIS website (https://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/bispi00.jsp?show=1). The BIN will show all the violations/summonses issued on a property Cured (dismissed) and Active (open).

Please forward requests to the Public Records Unit for violation searches, their forms are also available at fdny.org

Historic/past restaurant inspection data

https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Health/DOHMH-New-York-City-Restaurant-Inspection-Results/43nn-pn8j


Hello, I am graduate student at Pratt Institute. I am compiling a map that traces restaurant locations throughout the city. I am particularly interested in identifying restaurants that have opened and closed over time, particularly in the last 30 years.

I am using the DOHMH New York City Restaurant Inspection Results to map currently operating restaurants. Does the city maintain an archive of past restaurant inspection datasets? I need information on restaurants that have closed prior to the most recently published health inspection data.

I would also be interested in business registration data, if that is available.

Thanks for your help!

The dataset is in txt format. When downloaded, the data is proving difficult to clean. Is there a way to get a CSV format instead?

I'm referring to the Property Address Directory - specifically I'm looking to access the alias data in this file.


Looking to access address aliases to improve address matching.
Response
Thank you for contacting the Department of City Planning (DCP). The PAD file is too large for excel, we are not sure if that is why you are requesting a csv over the txt file. If you are trying to load the data into excel you should break the txt file into at least two files, in order to load it into excel (excel row limit = 1,048,576, bobaaddr.txt contains 1,320,685 rows).

Once you break the file down into smaller files, if you wanted to load it into Excel do the following:
1. Go to Data tab and click From Text/CSV
2. Import Data window opens, navigate to where you stored the PAD txt file (bobaaddr.txt, bobabbl.txt, etc.) and click import
3. New data preview window will open, make sure Delimiter is set to comma, click load
4. Data will load into excel (this will take a few minutes)
If you have further questions please reach out to DCPopendata@planning.nyc.gov.

I was wondering if/when the "Energy and Water Data Disclosure for Local Law 84 2023 (Data for Calendar Year 2022)" report will be published on the NYC Open Data site? It seems from previous years' the data was released on 11/3 but currently I only see data available for buildings 50,000 sq ft or larger.

Thanks.

I am looking for spatial data, ideally a GIS layer of soil cells across the city.


I am writing my masters capstone on quantifying the impact of soil cells on tree growth and health, and potentially mortality comparing street trees in tree pits with street trees in soil cells. I am utilizing data from the City of Mississauga as the City of Toronto does not have soil cell locations mapped, the large past data sets made available by the City of New York are ideal for this analysis if you have where the soil cells are located. Alternatively, I was going through your 2005 tree census and noted that some trees are planted in continuous pits, what does this mean and is this site a structural tree cell/pit.

Park entrances. Shapefile if possible. The open data shapefile of access points arent included in the shapefile that I downloaded - just the 1/4 and 1/2 mile buffer polygons...


We are researching accessibility in the Borough.
Response
Regarding the access points that feed the Walk-to-a-Park analysis you referenced, we do have a layer, however it's made specifically for this analysis and does not include all access points of a park. It only includes the ones at the edges of the park. For example, at large parks, where there are no through streets, mid-block entrances are omitted if there are entrances closer to the block's edge. This access point layer also includes sites that aren't under Parks jurisdiction (like schoolyards open to the public, state and federal parkland, and privately owned accessible spaces) because for purposes of "walking to a park" the jurisdiction is irrelevant. 
 
We also have another geospatial layer that was most recently updated in 2019 (although I do not have information on how complete the dataset was, even back then). If you are interested in either of these datasets, please let us know so that we can start the process of talking with our Legal division to share.

The following dataset appears to be kept since 08/11/2017 but the data only goes back three months: "https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Transportation/Street-Closures-due-to-construction-activities-by-/i6b5-j7bu"
I would guess that this is because it is being updated weekly. Is it possible to get the history of this dataset back to the beginning of 2019?


We are evaluating changes in traffic patterns due to construction activity.
Response
Thank you for your request, the Street Closures due to Construction Activities dataset only contains current street closures. However, each street closure in New York City requires a Street Construction Permit, therefore all historical street closures are in the Street Construction Permits dataset which goes back to 2013.

Use the "Purpose" column in Street Closures due to Construction Activities data and match it with the "PermitTypeDesc" column in Street Construction Permits to identify the street closure permits types and the historical data.

Note: Due to the large number of records in the Street Construction Permits dataset, this dataset currently has two entries on the Open Data Portal, they are as follows:
2022- present: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Transportation/Street-Construction-Permits-2013-2021-/c9sj-fmsg
2013-2021: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Transportation/Street-Construction-Permits-2013-2021-/c9sj-fmsg

You should download the MapPLUTO - Water Included geodatabase or shapefile from the Department of City Planning's (DCP) BYTES of the BIG APPLE open data site . This includes tax lots underwater. Use the 'OwnerName' field to search owner. See the PLUTO Data Dictionary for more information about each field.

Note: not all land underwater is owned or on a tax lot.


Thank you,

I'd like to know if it's possible to get the data of all school locations and the grade levels of each school location. This is the link with that information but I'd like to see it as a dataset: https://schoolsearch.schools.nyc/


I'd like to see the grade offerings of each school location to understand if there is a need for childcare services in a specific area.
Response
We apologize for the delay in our response. The data is located here: LCGMS - DOE School Information Report | NYC Open Data (cityofnewyork.us). You can make a request for more data via this link: https://infohub.nyced.org/in-our-schools/working-with-the-doe/research-irb/faqs-for-external-data-requests
