List of Alternation Type 2 jobs where a generator was installed in Manhattan.


Listing of generators (emergency or otherwise) have been filed with DOB in the BIS systems.
Response
Hi,

You can find this information in our DOB Job Application Filings dataset: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-Job-Application-Filings/ic3t-wcy2. Generator installations are not tracked specifically, so you would have to search through the Job Description field for the mention of "generator". This information is submitted by the applicant in a free text field, so there is no validation, which means you will encounter spelling errors and non-standardized phrases.

Ecb Violation Data - Language for Suggestion:
I would like to suggest making Ecb Violation Data available through NYC Open Data.
This data is currently available on NYC's Business express, but it is not formatted in compile-able list that can be managed...

These are Violations from various ECB subsets, like DSNY, DEP, DOT, and FDNY
The following Fields would be helpful:
ViolNumber
ViolationDate
Agency (within ECB)
Recipient
ViolationLocation
MailingAddress
ViolationAmt
TotalAmt
Status

ImposedAmt

Thanks in advance
Response
To Whom it May Concern,

Your data request for Ecb Violation Data concerns data maintained by the NYC Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH) and determined to be a public data set. The data can currently be found on the Open Data Portal in the data set entitled OATH ECB Hearings Case Status which can be found at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/OATH-ECB-Hearings-Case-Status/y6h5-jvss

This dataset was prioritized for availability because as the City's central, independent administrative law court, OATH strives to be transparent, open and accessible and making this information available on the City of New York's Open Data Portal helps OATH achieve this goal.

Thank you,

I need to update the following with the latest available data:

 Net new construction in Brooklyn by community districts;
 No. of added units due to alterations of existing buildings in Brooklyn by community Districts;
 Permits in the pipeline that are likely to result in new housing in Brooklyn by community districts



I need the data in order to estimate the population of Brooklyn (using the housing unit method).

Thank you
Response
Hi,

You should be able to get some answers with the following DOB datasets:
DOB Job Application Filings - https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-Job-Application-Filings/ic3t-wcy2
DOB Permit Issuance - https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-Permit-Issuance/ipu4-2q9a
You can filter both by borough or by community board number.

Job Application Filings gives you NB - New Building and A1-A3 - Alteration job application information. There are columns for Existing and Proposed Dwelling Units (Caution: this is self-reported data on the application and doesn't get updated if the plans are changed later or if there was a data entry error on the original application.)

And Permit Issuance gives you the permits issued for those jobs. Note: Make sure you look at both Job Type and Permit Type as each job may have multiple permits.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you,
- NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)

I have made several requests for information, none of which have been satisfactory fulfilled. Subsequently, I obtained the
information from other sources.

Now as a volunteer at Gray Matters,
an organization that offers it experience and expertise to the
non profit community on a strictly
pro basis, I would like to purchase
a list of nonprofit (501Cs) in NYC.
The list should include :
Name of organization
Mailing and email addresses
Officers

Hopefully, you will handle this
request more professionally than
you have the others I made.



We wish to inform
the 501Cs in NYC that we offer them our experience and expertise
on a pro bono basis.
Response
Hi,

We're sorry if any action we've taken has come across as unprofessional.

Via this form we read and review requests for data which will potentially be published on NYC's Open Data Portal. Requests like your current one seem more appropriate as a FOIL request to a specific agency. Looking at your request, it seems as though this data is likely maintained by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) (https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-organizations/exemption-requirements-section-501-c-3-organizations), and not maintained by a NYC agency.

I would like data on reported cases of Legionnaire's Disease in the City. A 2014 study by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene references such data including information on: (1) sex, (2) age, (3) race/ethnicity, (4) pre-existing medical conditions, (5) occupation, (6) nights away from home, (7) recreational water exposures, (8) other risk factors for acquiring Legionella, (9) death. In addition to the information mentioned in the study, it would be helpful if, for each case, information on the (a) date and time of legionellosis positive test result, (b) source of Legionella, (c) any linked cases of Legionella, and (d) location information about where the patients lived at the lowest aggregate level deemed necessary to protect the patients' privacy.


I am working on a project to explain some of the recently developed concepts in fair machine learning. One of our goals is to help the public understand some of the fairness issues the City is grappling with as the Automated Decision System Task Force works on its report. The requested data can help answer the family of questions: How do the different fair machine learning techniques compare to each other in predicting risk of Legionnaires’ disease and to the traditional fairness-blind approaches? And in particular, how do their predictions compare when disaggregated into groups based on race and risk factors associated with Legionnaires’ disease such as age and occupation. Thanks to the City’s impressive open data ecosystem, we can conduct several similar and complementary analyses. The Legionnaires’ disease data would allow us to add another layer of nuance adding further value for our audience. Thank you!
Response
Thank you for your inquiry about NYC DOHMH communicable disease data, which is not public data pursuant to New York State law. In order to access the data, therefore, you would need to go through the DOHMH data use agreement and IRB processes, which can take time and may not meet the timeline you have set for your work. To begin this process, you may contact Dr. Robert Fitzhenry of the Bureau of Communicable Disease at rfitzhenry@health.nyc.gov to discuss your data needs and the study question(s)you wish to address.

Crime Data Set - Hey There,

I'm working with a few friends to build an iPad app that lets the user browse through the different neighborhoods in NYC and get the 'low down' on each of them.

I'm assuming that there's a data set or an API that taps into the crimes that are committed in NYC, but I can't seem to locate it. Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help
Response
To whom it may concern,

The data can currently be found (https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/NYPD-7-Major-Felony-Incidents/hyij-8hr7) and is available on the open data portal.
