My team is currently trying to help patients at NYU find doctors based on neighborhood and we are using your api to do so. In order to give patients to most optimal experience we would like an endpoint that lists all the NYC neighborhoods that you maintain. Is this something that exists or that could easily be provided?


What are the names of all NYC neighborhoods?

DB to get political district - Hi,

I am working for an NGO in NYC and We are looking into adding a feature to our internal form. The new feature needs to list following items based on the entered Address, Zip and borough :

1. Community board number
2. State assembly number
3. State senator number
4. U.S. Congress number
5. City Council number

We are looking into a way to get the above info. Is there any DB that we can use? Any available API?

I appreciate your feed back on this.

Thanks.
Response
To whom it may concern,

Your data request for DB to get political district concerns data maintained by the NYC Department of City Planning (DCP).

You can use DCP Geosupport Desktop to assign political districts to addresses. This is an application outside of Open Data but is available to the public via DCPs website .

WalkNYC Geodatabase - The WalkNYC Geodatabase is a version of the DOITT Planimetric database that has been expanded and modified to include further details of park features, bike lanes and points of interest within NYC.

Examples of the maps can be found here:
https://www.behance.net/gallery/15733129/WalkNYC-SBS-real-time-wayfinding-products
http://www.hamishsmyth.com/walknyc/

The geodatabase includes approximately individual data layers.

The NYC Department of Transportation released a copy of the geodatabase under FOIL being served with an Advisory Opinion from the State of New York advising it that the records were within the scope of the law:

http://docs.dos.ny.gov/coog/ftext/2015/f19246.htm

The program managers from the Department of Transportation claim that the geodatabase will eventually be made public, but have not acted in good faith.

A subset of the geodatabase was briefly on the NYC OpenData portal as part of the NYC Big Apps competition in 2014.

We am looking for data on electricity used on a fine-grained level (e.g. zip-code based). Ideally released on an annual basis to keep track of trends over time.


We are trying to put together an urban metabolism analysis of the City of New York and this is a fundamental piece of information to better understand the resource and energy requirements of the city.

Hi,

We do not believe the data you requested is maintained by a city agency, but likely by utility companies.

Preventive Services - Annual reporting of number of families referred to preventive services, level of risk, and location. Additionally report of families who are reengaged by ACS after discharge from preventive services-- including level of risk and location.
Response
Your data request Annual reporting of number of families referred to preventive services, level of risk, and location. Additionally report of families who are reengaged by ACS after discharge from preventive services-- including level of risk and location concerns data maintained by the Administration for Children's Services and has been determined to be a public data set with some modifications. In response to the request ACS will develop the following two new reports aggregated at the CD and borough level: 1) number of opened preventive cases by CD and borough in a calendar year 2) Number of preventive cases closed in a year with indicated investigations within six months after case closed and number of foster care placement within six months after case closure by CD and borough. The reports are scheduled to be available on the open data portal by May 2016. These reports were prioritized for availability because it improves public knowledge of the agency and its operation. The availability of this data will also be listed in the upcoming update to the NYC open data plan http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/downloads/pdf/reports/2015/NYC-Open-Data-Plan-2015.pdf.

I know that you have monitors set up in the ferry waiting rooms. Do you have any kind of AIS feed (or GTFS-RT) for the ferry that we could access? I can provide a link to our internal demo of what will be public in December.
Response
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 am interested in current data that the IBO used for the analysis in the following report: http://www.ibo.nyc.ny.us/iboreports/2014dhs.pdf

I am interested in data on where individuals and families entering the shelter system are coming from (at smallest geography available); reason for shelter entry; most recent address (to determine housing type).



I am trying to determine rates of displacement across neighborhoods and housing types.
Response
The data in that analysis is not regularly updated. For data by neighborhood, the Agency is planning to publish a dataset detailing the associate addresses for the DHS shelter population.

I am seeking to make a map in ArcGIS (online or desktop) of private land areas in NYC. I went to the NYC Open Data website to search for and download the appropriate shapefile and was unsuccessful. When I tried to download the mapPLUTO dataset, access was denied, presumably because my organization uses a remote server. The only way our organization allows us to connect to the internet is through this remote server so I cannot visit the site any other way. Would you mind emailing me a shapefile of private land use in the five boroughs?


Display private land areas to highlight potential for public-private partnerships to increase stormwater capture in the city.
Response
Hi,

Thank you for using the Open Data Portal. From a policy perspective, we only direct users to the location where data exists, and do not do the physical downloading and transferring of data. Hopefully you can download the data from another location that does not have server restrictions.

We are working with the diversion rate dataset - https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Environment/Recycling-Diversion-and-Capture-Rates/gaq9-z3hz

We want to be able to calculate borough-wide diversion rates. The current dataset is delineated by collection districts, and only reports the diversion rate for each district so it is impossible to calculate the borough-wide rate.

So, we would like to request either:
• borough-level diversion rate data
• that the current diversion rate data is updated to reflect the total tonnage for each district so the borough-wide average can be extrapolated

I have already submitted this request two weeks ago and received no response - this data is very crucial for our study and we need it as soon as possible.


We are conducting a study analyzing socioeconomic characteristics and how they affect recycling rates.

A part of our business is to attach fiber cables to poles or place radios and antennas on poles to provide wireless coverage.
Recently we’re doing poles data collection in some of the major markets that we are working in NYC one of these major markets.
I was wondering if you might have a shapefile or a feature class with all of the poles that the city owns. If you do, would be able to share it with us?.

If do not have this kind of data, would you mind to provide me with a point of content that I can reach out in order to get the data, your help is much appreciated.

Thank you

I found that the Department of Transportation at New York City released the Citywide Mobility Survey 2017, which helps understand people' travel patterns, especially related to new options such as Uber and Lyft. Having said that, I am looking for more detailed location information for trip origins and destinations (e.g., x and y geocodes). The public version of the Survey dataset contains only zonal level information, which is not small enough for modeling.


With detailed location information, we, a Georgia Tech transportation research team, plan to analyze factors affecting Uber/Lyft rides and the consequences of use of these services on vehicle ownership and residential location choice. We plan to use the detailed information only for academic research.
