NYC Open Data Help Desk: Public Dataset Requests

Department of Education (DOE)

I am looking for Charter School ELA and Math 3-8 test scores broken down by demographic info the way the regular public school data is. I only see "All Students" as the category in the charter school set. It's possible this data is available and I can't find it, or that it can be recreated with the NYS data published here:
https://data.nysed.gov/downloads.php

It would be useful for that, though, to have a BEDS-to-DBN mapping.


I'm teaching a programming class where students are exploring the Open Data released by the NYC DOE. Some teams want to analyze test results of charters vs non-charters for different demographic groups.

Hi ,

You can find the list of datasets maintained by the Department of Education here:
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/browse?Dataset-Infor...

The NYC DOE Open Data team is committed to making City data available for anyone to access online. We cannot accommodate requests to perform individual lookups or queries for single data points or records available in an Open Data dataset. For more help with filtering or searching within a single dataset for an individual record, consult these

Hi ,

The information you are looking for is not maintained by NYC Open Data as it is not a data request. For information requests (documents, correspondence, etc.) 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.

Respected official,

I am a Data Analyst at ***. I have been using the different dumps of rolling sales data (https://www1.nyc.gov/site/finance/taxes/property-rolling-sales-data.page) from a few days and those files have been highly useful for our company. However, the tax maps show lot more useful information for each specific property and this data is shown in the form of a HTML table when clicked on the individual property in the map. I have been looking for a way to get all of this information but I was not able to find any other data sources or API connections to get this data. It would be of great help for me and my company if we get all of this data in one place, regardless of the format.


Realquantum is web-based narrative appraisal report software and a cloud-hosted comps database that dramatically increase the productivity of commercial real estate appraisers so they produce more work at higher quality, generating more revenue and delighting their clients. To make appraisers even more productive, the realquantum mobile app makes property inspections easy by capturing photos and typed or spoken notes, then uploading everything to your assignment automatically while you drive back to the office. As a company dealing with property sales and appraisal data, the NYC sales data would be of amazing help for the development of the company and its goals.

Hi ,
It is not clear on which data you would like to see in one place. Is it the tax map and rolling sales data that you would like to see in one place and does one place mean a single dataset? Please explain.

BetaNYC had asked about whether the DOHMH restaurant inspection results dataset was on schedule to be geocoded back in August and were instructed to check back in later in the year. I'm checking in on how soon we can expect the dataset to be geocoded.


BetaNYC has created a tool at slam.beta.nyc which gathers information about licensed bars and restaurants to help community boards process their liquor applications. We include the restaurant inspection results data in this map, but have to manually geocode it using the City's Geo Batch software on a weekly basis (it is far too many lines to geocode automatically using the GeoClient). It would save us considerable time and resources if this dataset were geocoded prior to publication.

How many licensed businesses there are in NYC that are caterers, mobile food, ghost restaurants (only do take out via grub hub or seamless), bakeries, local or handmade food. How many of these businesses, plus all food establishments (like restaurants and fast food), become active and inactive each year?


I am trying to find out how big the market is for people and/or businesses who would use a shared/rental kitchen in NYC. And trying to find out the total number of food businesses open and close each year...at least the last 5 years.

DCA does not track or maintain any data regarding market size or employee data for any industry in the City, regardless of whether the business requires a DCA-issued license.

The Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) no longer tracks information regarding the catering industry, as the license category has been discontinued as of 9/30/2018. Details regarding the sixty-five (65) former licensees can be found on the NYC Open Data Portal in the “Legally Operating Businesses” data set; note these licenses are all inactive.

I am interested in the data used to derive the NYC Active Major Construction map (https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/buildings/html/nyc-active-major-construction.html) corresponding to March 19, 2018 and July 24, 2018. Are these data easily available?

Thank you,
Matt


We are trying to understand air quality in NYC, and we are interested in seeing if we can link pollutants that we see in the atmosphere with various activities, including construction.

Hi,

Those dates are available in both datasets that I pointed you to. The note about archiving is meant to convey that anything older (before about 2012 or so) is not available online. But your date range is easily available from both sources.

Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD)

Looking for data sets for building's taking advantage of the 421a tax rebate, The data set in particular involves the units being provided as affordable housing. For a building this would involve actual unit numbers sans names for the people that live in this particular units to keep them anonymous. If that data is not available can the size of the apartments be provided( Square ft)? This should be data that is readily available as HPD verifies that units provided match whats offered to regular tenants. (Unless they don't verify actual floor plans and go by the developers provided description ex: studio, 1 bed, 2 bed)


Trying to find discrepancies between affordable housing provided to low and middle income tenants through the 421-a program, things such as smaller units being provided to lower income tenants or units that don't meet the guidelines set forth by HPD. Using this data set to create a visual interactive website that users can view any discrepancies within buildings that HPD might have missed because they don't have the resources to scan through floor plans for the various buildings. (EX: Low income 1 bedroom square ft: 550 standard 1 bedroom square ft: 900)

We are looking for georeferenced elevation data for the five boroughs New York City as well as Suffolk and Nassau County. Specifically we are looking for a LiDAR scan of that area with a resolution of at least 10 points/m2 (although if better resolution is available we would be interested). As a note: we want to detect in-roof obstacles like chimneys and skylights.

Ideally this data would map 1:1 to existing orthoimagery data at 6" resolution (6" per pixel) that we have been able to find.


We are trying to provide instant and accurate residential solar quotes for installing new systems in terms of savings and power generated.

Hi,

The 2017 LiDAR capture only includes New York City and was captured at 8 points/m2 (QL1). All derived DEM/DSMs have a 1 foot resolution. This data is not yet available for download, but will be available on the New York State DEM Clearing house app in the coming weeks. https://orthos.dhses.ny.gov/?Extent=-9603624.133747088,4774299.7366908705,-7659066.134172721,5795498.434580554&Layers=07_meter_dem_index_usgs,1_meter_dem_index_fema,1_meter_dem_index_usgs,1_meter_dem_index_tidal_water,1_meter_dem_index_hydro_flattened,1_meter_dem_index_usda_utm18n,1_meter_dem_index_usda_utm17n,1_meter_dem_index_nys,2_meter_dem_index_ne_lidar,2_meter_dem_index_nys,2_meter_dem_index_fema,2_meter_dem_index_monroe_county,2_meter_dem_index_tompkins_county,2_meter_dem_index_erie_county&layerGroups=DEMIndexes,Orthoimagery&rightMenu=0

2. Household data on these students (for example, do they have siblings? where do these siblings go to school?)

If these data exist, please let us know!



We are looking to get a clearer idea of how infectious diseases spread throughout the city. Since children are key transmitters of infections, knowing where they spend time and how they move through the city will be key in understanding how infectious diseases spread.

The data you are requesting is determined to not be public data because the data contains significant amounts of private identifiable information PII.

I'm looking for the turnstile data for 2017, for Bedford Ave station in Brooklyn (L train). I downloaded the data from MTA open data but there wasnt metadata for it and some times they were missing days in the file. I.e Feb. 4-10
Sept. 2-8 and Dec. 2-8 and 23-31. if you could provide me with the data along with metadata for this train station that would be helpful.
Thank you


I am working on a project and trying to answer how many people (who use L train to commute between Brooklyn and Manhattan) will be affected by the L train shutdown?

Hi,

At this time, we believe that your requested dataset is not maintained by a New York City agency.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) whom would likely have the dis-aggregated information you are looking for, is a quasi agency and does not fall under the purview of the NYC open data law. You can find further detail on the law here:

I requested this data a few weeks ago and I'm requesting it again. I would like to get the following information about LinkNYC: detailed usage data by individual kiosk for all the kiosks in the 10033 zip code, or if, that's not possible, by aggregated for the 10033 zip code. I would like to see number of broadband sessions, their length, duration and bandwidth used. I would also like to get information on calls made, including frequency, length and any other stats that might be relevant. It would also be great to get comparison metrics to the same stats for average-use-level link kiosks and high-use-level link kiosks.


I am exploring digital access in the 10033 area code and would like to understand the impact of the LinkNYC program on this neighborhood.

Hi,

The information you are looking for is not maintained by NYC Open Data as it is not a data request. For information requests (documents, correspondence, etc.) 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.

I would like to analyze the data for the subway. Specifically, I am looking for data relating to subway platform entrances as it relates to the location of the train.


I want to know if most of the entrances to the platforms are in the middle of the train. If that is the case, which I think it is, then the ideal spot to enter the train would typically be on either end...as people tend to congregate at the turnstile point vs. moving to the ends of the platform.

I am doing a recycling rate study that requires controlling for borough/neighborhood population size to maintain empirical accuracy. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions regarding this request. Thanks!

The City is not responsible for providing population data - that is available from the Census Bureau. You many want to check the American Community Survey (ACS) for estimates if you want that for each year as the census in decennial.

Currently the only recycling data available is about 10 years of diversion rates by district and 2 years of total tonnage. I want to be able to calculate borough-wide average diversion rates, which impossible to do from district-level diversion rates without knowing how much total refuse is being generated in each district.

So, I would like to request either borough-level diversion rate data, or that the current diversion rate data is updated to reflect the total tonnage so the borough-wide average can be extrapolated.

Thanks!

I am examining recycling rates in each borough as a function of factors such as political alignment, socioeconomic status, and education to come up with policy suggestions to improve recycling rates. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions regarding my request.

Thank you for your message but we no longer provide individual status of each parking meter. Given the new parking meter system, we no longer have individual parking spots, it is based on parking meter radius.

Hi,

The Department of City Planning makes the Zoning Tax Lot Database (ZTLDB) available for every release back to 2013. You can go to DCP's Open Data page and search the archive. Search using "Zoning Tax Lot Database".

If you have GIS capabilities you could also search our archive for "NYC GIS Zoning Features" which goes back to 2009 (and is more accurate than the ZTLDB).

If you need to see all zoning map changes going back to 2006 (or beyond), you can use the most recent NYC Zoning Map Amendments file which has all zoning changes. This is part of the NYC GIS Zoning Features dataset mentioned above. It is available here in shapefile, geodatabase or REST service formats.
