Hi,

In the building footprint data set you can find detailed information on NYC buildings.

Hi, I am current a college student, working on a group presentation for Sociology statistics class. I am looking for data that relates to Adults or teenagers and Technology Use in NYC. Thank you.


How technology affect our perception of our needs?
What are its effects on relationships?
How does it affect our way of seeing and experiencing the world?
What is its purpose?
Is there a tangible benefit to using the technology?
Does the technology allow more students to participate at a level that is suitable for them?
Does the technology encourage broader community participation?
Response
Hello and thank you for your request. As a reminder, the Open Data is a resource for providing public data from almost every governmental agency in New York City. So unfortunately, we do not believe that any one dataset on the Portal will provide the analysis you are looking for. Such analysis would have to be conducted and inferred by you.

Your general inquiry however could perhaps be focused on one facet of city government. Please see our page for data by business category: https://opendata.cityofnewyork.us/data/#datasetscategory

Alternatively you can also view our available data sets by popularity and see what insights you can infer the data usage. https://data.cityofnewyork.us/browse?sortBy=most_accessed&utf8=%E2%9C%93

County Clerk Data - Judgments, Dockets and Liens that are filed in the county clerk should be made accessible through open data. As of now, you have to go into each borough office to review this information on their JDLS system. Bronx county has a website where you can gain some the information http://www.bronxcountyclerkinfo.com/blds/pages/docsearch.aspx
The JDLS information is delivered through portal to private companies, but everyone should be able to access it.
Response
Judgments, Dockets and Liens data are filed in the County Clerk’s offices, which is often confused with the City Clerk’s office. The County Clerk’s office is part of the New York State Court System, therefore, this data is not maintained by an agency falling under the purview of the NYC Open Data Law.

I am looking for two sets of data, the first is data on green spaces in New York City. I would like to acquire data on green spaces from a few different years if possible. I also an interested in acquiring data on asthma rate levels in various parts of the city.


I am a human geography major at the University of Vermont. For my geospatial technologies class, I am trying to understand how asthma rates in communities living in the neighborhoods encapsulating the South Bronx have been altered by an increase of green spaces in these areas. My hypothesis is that with an increase of green spaces, there has been a decrease in asthma rates, thus encouraging more of this development in the future.
Response
Hello, this question was answered in two parts from the Department of Parks and The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

Here is some data regarding green spaces:
MillionTreesNYC - An Initiative which concentrated on "trees for public health neighborhoods" or areas where we would plant in every possible street tree location under the assumption that trees mitigate air quality and other public health issues: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Environment/MillionTreesNYC-Block-Planting-Locations/vr8g-vfny.
Park Properties: https://tree-map.nycgovparks.org/
Greenstreets: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Environment/Greenstreets/7fuk-i2af

For Asthma related data:
Youth Risk Behavior survey has asthma by borough of school, and schools in Neighborhood Health Action Center Areas:https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Health/Youth-Behavior-Risk-Survey/3qty-g4aq

Community Health Survey: in 2014 it has ever-asthma and current-asthma, and you can look at both by borough, Neighborhood Health Action Center Areas, and United Hospital Fund area: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Health/Community-Health-Survey/2r9r-m6j4

Violation tickets - Could anyone tell me each column means?I could not find any information online ,for example, what the street code means. https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/Parking-Violations-Issued-Fiscal-Year-2016/kiv2-tbus
Response
Thank you for contacting NYC Open Data Help Desk. Street Code1 column corresponds to the Street Name on which a specific violation took place, Street Code2 corresponds to the Low End Cross Street, and Street Code3 corresponds to the High End Cross Street. The Department of City Planning maintains a set of names of geographic features that Geosupport software recognizes and considers valid. All of these names are assigned Street Codes. Street codes enable street name aliases to be grouped together in a meaningful way. For more information, please refer to Geosupport System User Programming Guide (CHAPTER IV: STREET CODES) at http://a030-goat.nyc.gov/goat/documents/upg.pdf

To whom it may concern,

Your data request for an API to access legislation data concerns a method to access data maintained by the New York City Council (NYCC) and that method is determined to NOT be a public data set.

However, in the City Councils technology plan, Council 2.0 (available at this link, please see page 8: http://council.nyc.gov//html/tech/techplan.pdf ), the City Council has committed to developing and providing an API in the near future.

Response
Hi,

You can find the information that you're looking for in our DOB Job Application Filings dataset. It shows current and past construction projects. In the Existing Occupancy and Proposed Occupancy columns, you'll see the occupancy classification. (Note: This field is not required for every job.) You're looking for jobs that say "Res". This will indicate hotels and apartments, but it's a broad category that can mean other things too. (See page 19 of our PW1 User Guide for more detail.)

City Register / ACRIS Information - The City Register (part of the Dept of Finance) maintains an excellent database of land records and property transactions. Their information is already in the public domain via their automated system ACRIS for individual searches - http://a836-acris.nyc.gov/scripts/docsearch.dll/index. As we all know on the Ooen Data platform, one-time searches are limiting and full datasets are paramount. When can we expect the ACRIS data to come to this platform?

African Owned Businesses - I am looking for data sets about African businesses in NYC or African restaurants.
I am interested in using such datasets to build iOS apps for African Immigrants in diaspora. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks
Response
To whom it may concern,

Your data nomination African Own Business concerns data maintained by Small Business Services(SBS) and determined to be a public data set. The data is currently available on the open data portal at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Business/M-WBE-LBE-and-EBE-Certified-Business-List/ci93-uc8s .

When considering any changes to already published datasets, agencies consider whether the additional information: (1) can be used to increase agency accountability and responsiveness; (2) improves public knowledge of the agency and its operations; (3) furthers the mission of the agency; (4) creates economic opportunity; or (5) responds to a need or demand identified by public consultation.

If changed, the availability of this additional information will be listed in the upcoming update to the NYC open data plan at http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/downloads/pdf/reports/2015/NYC-Open-Data-Plan-2015.pdf
