NYC Open Data Help Desk: Public Dataset Requests

Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH)

Based on the notes above, this may not be possible, but I am wondering if it is possible to see the number of petitions for a name change. In the dataset all I would really be interested in is when an individual requests to change their first name. So the data would only need to include the first name and the date of the petition. I wouldn't be interested in any address information, or anything else.


This really started with a data project to help me select a name for my unborn child. I found a dataset documenting the number of social security applications in the US, but I am curious if there would be a similar dataset to identify the names that are most frequently changed.

Hello,

Unfortunately your request is not handled by the agency. Please refer your request to the New York Civil courts to assist you.

Thank you

Feature classes identifying Open Space "Underserved" and "Well-Served" areas for all boroughs / community districts, digital hard maps here: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/oec/environmental-quality-review/open-space-maps-queens.page


I want to automate the identification of a project site's location in one of these under/well-served areas as required by the CEQR Open Space analysis; a publicly available feature class would ease this effort (I really don't feel like georeferencing all of the maps and creating the associated feature classes by hand).

Hello ,

Thank you for contacting NYC Parks. We sincerely apologize for the delayed response. Unfortunately, we do not have an available feature class identifying service areas as used in the CEQR Open Space analysis and we do not have plans to create one at this time.

Best,
NYC Parks and the NYC Open Data Team

Department of City Planning (DCP)

Greetings and Salutations,

I’m looking for a shapefile (or GeoJSON file) of either neighborhoods, neighborhood associations or subdivisions boundaries in Staten. Do you happen to have that type of file you could share with me? If not, I would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.

Thanks!



I am with a tech company working with a real estate company in Staten Island to create feature pages of subdivisions/ neighborhoods.

Hi ,

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

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:
http://www1.nyc.gov/site/doitt/initiatives/open-da...

Furthermore, there are no official neighborhood boundaries, since neighborhoods are not defined by the City (i.e. nothing says Chelsea ends at 23rd st, etc). The closest dataset available to a neighborhood is the Neighborhood Tabulation Areas (NTAs).

This is the full description of NTAs:
Geographic files of Neighborhood Tabulation Areas (NTAs) as created by the New York City Department of City Planning, using whole census tracts from the 2010 Census as building blocks. These aggregations of census tracts are subsets of New York City's 55 Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs). Primarily due to these constraints, NTA boundaries and their associated names may not definitively represent historical or traditional neighborhoods.

Available here: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/Neighborhood-Tabulation-Areas/cpf4-rkhq

See also, neighborhood name points for map label display purposes only:
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/Neighborhood-Names-GIS/99bc-9p23

Since you are specifically looking for homeowner associations and subdivisions within SI, you may also want to query the Owner Name field in the MapPLUTO dataset - which is a dataset of all tax parcels in NYC with additional attribute information added. You can access that file here:
https://www1.nyc.gov/site/planning/data-maps/open-...

Currie, Janet, Michael Mueller-Smith, and Maya Rossin-Slater. "Violence while in Utero: The Impact of Assaults During Pregnancy on Birth Outcomes." (2018). http://papers.nber.org/tmp/89239-w24802.pdf

Per the above paper, the data should have "...exact spatial longitude and latitude coordinates of where the event allegedly occurred, the date and time of the offense, the degree of the offense and a categorical description of the nature of the offense." Additional demographic data on the offender and victim would be appreciated if possible. The table is keyed at the offense level. Thank you very much for your assistance in this effort.


I am attempting to estimate the causal link between noise pollution and crime. There is a small but growing literature on how factors from the built environment can affect people's propensity for violence. I plan to use a difference-in-differences approach to isolate noise from elevated subways in New York.

Department of Buildings (DOB)

Hi could you please let me know if there is an API available so that i can automatically download building data? i am looking for year built, building type (condo, co-op, etc), number of units, and number of floors data. Thank you


building a website

Hi,

Here's what you can find that can help partially meet your needs:

DOB Job Application Filings provides construction permit application data for every building that has filed for a permit in approximately the last 10 years. This is not every building in the city. You can get number of Proposed Dwelling Units and number of Proposed Stories (floors). This data is only required on larger construction jobs, so many of the applications will not have values in these fields.
DCP has MapPLUTO that offers most of that info for Tax Lots, but for tax lots that contain multiple buildings it is either aggregated (i.e. # of units) or only the primary building info is displayed (i.e. building class). DOITT GIS maintains the Building Footprints and can be joined to DCP MapPLUTO but the issue will remain for lots with multiple buildings. (this probably affects 20% of lots - rough estimate).
DOF has Property Assessment data, which includes building classifications (types).
Between all of those datasets, you should be able to get the information you're looking for on the majority of buildings in New York City.

Thank you,
- NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)

I found a dataset "DOB Permit Issuance" that contains some of the designated work types, but I was wondering if there is a dataset with more explicit variety of work types for commercial construction projects. Thank you!


I am trying to get access to all available ongoing commercial construction projects in NYC to get an information about a project, its architect, general contractor, address of a project, owner, etc needed to build better services

Hi ,

In NYC, we issue construction permits after an applicant has an approved job application. Therefore, you should not only look at DOB Permit Issuance, but also at DOB Job Application Filings.

You should also know that we are transitioning to our online job application platform DOB NOW, so we are gradually moving everything into new datasets based on this new system. For all work currently in DOB NOW, you can use DOB NOW: Build – Job Application Filings and DOB NOW: Build – Approved Permits.

For several years, the Department of Transportation (DOT) published bi-annual pedestrian count data in 114 locations throughout the City. Every six months, they would record the number of pedestrians walking by a location in the morning and evening on both a weekday and a weekend. However, the most up to date pedestrian data on the City's Open Data Portal is from 2016. We would like more up to date data about pedestrian counts.


NYC community boards would like access to pedestrian count data so that they can track city foot traffic in growing retail districts and so that they can better assess the approval of sidewalk cafe applications.

Hi,

The dataset(s) that you are looking for can be found here:
DOT Data Feeds Page: http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/about/datafeeds.shtml#Pedestrians

Currently, to get to records of the After-Hours Variances permits that the DOB issues, individuals need to know the address of a building and enter it into the DOB’s BISweb. At the bottom right hand side of the resulting page, there is a link to the After-Hours Variances issued for the property. The DOB publishes several datasets that document construction applications and awarded permits on the City’s Open Data Portal, but these datasets do not include AHV permits.

Based on our research in collaboration with NYC community boards, we have learned the potential benefits of publishing AHV data online, in a machine-readable format, and updating it daily. We are hoping that the dataset can list every record for an issued AHV application, along with the status of the application, and the BIN of the building under consideration. It would also be great for it to include the responses to certain application questions such as the reason the AHV is being applied for and issued, the number of days applied for and awarded, and whether or not the building is within 200 feet of a residence, involves a demolition, is taking place in an enclosed building, or involves the use of a crane. This is all information that can be accessed on BISweb.


We have heard the community boards would like to be able to query 1) the saturation of AHVs being awarded in their districts over time, 2) the number of days AHVs have been awarded at certain buildings, 3) the businesses applying for AHVs, 4) the reasons AHVs are being awarded, and 5) how applicants are responding to the question about whether the site is within 200 ft of a residence.

Hi,

We are in the process of updating our systems and migrating all of our paper forms online into a new system called DOB NOW. We anticipate releasing data about these permits when they have been added to that new system. We are continuing to roll out new work and permit types, and we suggest you follow our newsletter for updates.

I am looking for detailed (if possible) cost estimates for completed or ongoing construction projects in New York City, as well as data on what the Government/developer actually spent, or is currently spending on these contracts. Ideally, the actuals will be structured in the same way as a cost estimate, by a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The projects I am most interested in are for permanent structures, such as office buildings.


I am doing research on urban planning estimates and outcomes. Specifically, how construction cost estimates differ from constructions cost actuals. The goal of this research if to see if I can discover unconventional factors that explain deviations from cost estimates, and influence the cost construction and urban planning.

I am also available by phone to provide more information or clarify aspects of the data request. This inquiry is for research purposes and I am not a part of the media.

I am an MSc project management and innovation student at the University of ***.

I would like to take the New York case study on LED street lighting technology. I am looking for your help in obtaining information and data on this technology and its impacts on carbon dioxide emissions and energy efficiency in New York. In order to analyze the data I need a detailed time series for the project stages, so I look forward to detailed data on the entire project from start to date. How many lights have been installed and how much they have helped in reducing carbon dioxide emissions at each stage of the project.


What is the impact of LED lighting technology on energy saving and CO2 emissions?

I am working for the***, and we are trying to conduct research about homeless shelter locations. We were using the capital planning platform from the DCP online, but residential shelter locations are missing from both the online portal and from the shapfiles. The metadata says "Shelters and Transitional Housing : These records will be incorporated soon, once the data is finished being assembled for inclusion in the database." The most recent shelter data seems to be from 2018. We just wanted to know when you think this data will become available. Thank you!


Research report that determines where social services are located in relation to homeless shelters.

Hello,

We do not have a time estimate for when or if that data will be made available through DCP’s Facilities Database. DCP’s publication of the shelter locations is dependent on the source agency (DHS) providing us with the data for public use. DHS has been evaluating potential privacy and safety concerns around revealing residential locations, and we are deferring to their decision on this issue.

It is possible to access the SHSAT test results on a school level? I do not want individual student test results, just by school for the SHSAT. The data is presented in this New York Times article (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/06/29/nyregion/nyc-high-schools-middle-schools-shsat-students.html) and I'm hoping it is publicly accessible.


What can explain the differences in the percentage of students who take the SHSAT from different schools? I would like to figure out why some schools have much higher rates of test taking than others.

Hi
