I am trying to use Acris data for a project but I can't get the documentation for it since ACRIS_Public_OpenData_Guide.doc and ACRIS_-_Real_Property_Master_Data_Dictionary.xlsx are not downloadable so is there another place to get this answer or could it by chance be updated.

Thank you so much

Hi there, I notice that this data set has not been updated since 2025. I am working on a poetic project using climate/weather related alerts from the past year and was hoping I would be able to find the current alerts here since I noticed the NIXLE site linked in the text alerts only goes back about a month and does not include heat-related alerts for some reason. Hoping you can help me with this -- thank you!

This dataset is huge and updates frequently and the field mutates with not indicator of which row was updated (or when a particular row was updated), this means anyone trying to make use of the data will need to re-download the whole set everytime, which is time consuming and a waste of bandwidth.
I'd like to request adding a column that shows timestamp of revision when the row was changed so that downstream processing can be streamlined and the row can be used to filter to reduce wasted bandwidth

Hi, thank you for your question! It sounds like you may want to access new data using an API. This would let you select newly updated rows without having to manually filter or download them. Within the API there is a "created_at" field which shows when it was last updated. If you need any assistance using APIs our vendor has provided some guides: https://dev.socrata.com/consumers/getting-started.html

Hello,
I am a frequent user of the ACRIS Real Property Master dataset (bnx9-e6tj).
The dataset indicates a monthly update schedule, but the published data appears to be behind the expected update timeline. Could you please confirm:
- Whether there is a known delay affecting the dataset
- The expected publication date for the next update
- Whether there have been any changes to the data pipeline or refresh schedule
We rely on this dataset for real estate analytics, so any information about the status and expected resolution would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Follow-up: NYPD Shooting Incident Data — discharge vs. victim-struck definition

Hello NYPD Open Data Team,

Thank you for the earlier clarification that the shooting data include any incident in which a firearm is discharged that is made known to the NYPD, covering both fatal and non-fatal incidents, with fatal incidents identified by the Statistical Murder Flag.

I am writing to confirm one further point of definition that is important for my analysis. I would like to understand precisely what unit each record in the dataset represents:

1. Does each record represent an incident in which a victim was physically struck by gunfire (that is, a shooting with an injury or fatality), or

2. Does each record include any reported firearm discharge, including discharges where no person was struck (for example, shots fired with no injury)?

In other words, are non-fatal records limited to incidents with a confirmed victim injury, or do they also include discharges that produced no physical injury?

I am working with the NYPD Shooting Incident Data (Historic) dataset (https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/NYPD-Shooting-Incident-Data-Historic-/833y-fsy8) covering 2017 to 2023. If the inclusion criteria differ between the historic file and the current-year file, I would appreciate knowing that as well.

If there is a data dictionary or documentation that specifies the inclusion criteria (struck victim versus any discharge), a link would be very helpful.

Thank you for your assistance.

The dataset currently does not include a field indicating when a record was last updated. When a case receives a new hearing date, the Scheduled Hearing Date field is updated to reflect the newly scheduled hearing date.
If there are specific cases you would like us to review, please contact the OATH Clerk's Office at clerksofficemail@oath.nyc.gov for assistance.

Please note that due to limited team capacity we cannot accommodate requests to perform individual lookups or queries for single data points or records available in an Open Data dataset.
That said, we were able to locate records for all four IDs you provided. However, each record was missing a value in the Date Visited field, which may explain why the query was unsuccessful. Currently, approximately 76,000 out of 8 million records in the dataset are missing date information.

I am reporting a critical data quality failure. The 'NYC Permitted Event Information' dataset is incomplete, creating a blackout of records from January 2026 to June 2026. This period is currently excluded from both the 'Active' dataset and the 'Historical' archive. This gap renders recent public permits invisible to public oversight, which is a violation of the mandate for 'full and unrestricted access' to public data under the NYC Open Data Law (NYC Charter § 23-502). Please explain why these records have not been migrated to the public archive and provide a timeline for when the 2026 data will be made searchable.

Hi, I am working on a project to map all NYC curb signs to their correct location, by matching it to the street centerline shapefile against the curb edge planimetric shapefile. In my research, the curb sign point (lat/long) is not accurate in the signs specific location. When ID the curb sign in google maps, the sign does not match its point. Do you have more information on this and the process used for recording the curb sign point? Is there a logic? Do certain areas/neighborhoods use different logic? Does the 'distance_from_intersection' column reflect different metrics? Any insight into this process would be hugely helpful! Thank you!

It seems like this dataset removes all historical open street locations every time it is updated annually. We pulled the data a few weeks ago and it only had data for January 2024 through July 2025. Now, it has no data from 2024 and only locations from December 2025 to June 2026. Open Streets started in 2020, but there is no location data on this dataset pre-2025.

Why is it that on the website you proudly boast about the databases being updated daily yet the film permits database does not show any permits for 2026. In fact, it barely has anything for 2025. Other than that I would have to say it's a pretty website and easy to use. It reminds me of the old adage to dazzle them with brilliance and baffle them with B.S. and no usable info is provided.

For the browser issue, try accessing the dataset from a different browser or device. We're not able to troubleshoot local connection issues, but the dataset is publicly accessible at the link you provided.

For your data question: the OATH Hearings Division dataset includes a Violation Type or Charge field that you can filter to identify recycling and organics-related violations. To narrow to commercial businesses, filter by the respondent type or agency fields where applicable.

You can apply these filters directly on the dataset page using the Filter option, or download the data and filter locally.

If you're still having trouble accessing the page, try visiting data.cityofnewyork.us directly and searching for the dataset by name.

Inquiry
The DOB NOW Public Portal (https://a810-dobnow.nyc.gov) displays a free-text job description field for each filing, but this field is not included in the Open Data dataset. I am requesting that the job description field be added to this dataset. It already exists in DOB's internal system and is visible on the public portal, so we believe it is a strong candidate for inclusion in the Open Data feed. This field would significantly improve the usefulness of the dataset for researchers, developers, and property monitoring tools.
