AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
POP for NYCHA Residents - Local Law 163

This dataset contains information about [Park Opportunity Program (POP)], a service offered by the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) aimed at getting New Yorkers in the workforce for six months to clean and green DPR’s parks, playgrounds and other facilities citywide. Each row in the dataset represents the number of public housing residents on a Borough-level who receive or utilize this service. For datasets related to other services provided to NYCHA residents, view the data collection “Services available to NYCHA Residents - Local Law 163”.”
Policymakers List

This dataset contains a list of NYC’s Policymakers from 2018 to present. In 2018 through 2023, each City agency was required to identify annually their Policymakers (public servants charged with "substantial policy discretion") and submit that list to the Conflicts of Interest Board (the "Board") in accordance with Board Rules Section 1-02. As of 2024, each City agency is required to identify and submit its list of Policymakers to the Board every 6 months. A public servant "is deemed to have substantial policy discretion if he or she has major responsibilities and exercises independent judgment in connection with determining important agency matters."
Policy and Procedure Recommendations (PPR) Portal

The New York City Department of Investigation’s Policy and Procedure Recommendations (PPR) Portal provides the public with a greater understanding of the recommendations DOI issues to City agencies and entities. PPRs are formal written recommendations to City agencies that correct policy, procedural and operational vulnerabilities identified through DOI investigations. These PPRs are part of DOI’s distinct approach to attacking corruption: through prevention, education, arrests, public reports, and reforms that tighten internal controls and prevent fraud and corruption from re-occurring. PPRs help improve the efficiency and effectiveness of City government, defend the City from fraudulent activity, and protect City workers and the public from conditions that could affect health and safety. This dataset pulls the most recent information from DOIs PPR portal, available on their website.
PMMR Performance Indicators FY2013-15 (Historical Data)

This data contains all indicator data from the PY13-FY15 Preliminary Mayor's Management Reports (meaning all data from performance indicators related to each agency's work, not including budgeting and agency resource data). The full text of the FY13-15 PMMRs, archived reports, and additional information is available at https://www1.nyc.gov/site/operations/performance/mmr.page.
PLUTO Change File

This is a companion dataset to PLUTO and MapPLUTO. PLUTO and MapPLUTO are created using the best available data from a number of city agencies. To further improve data quality, the Department of City Planning (DCP) applies changes to selected field values. DCPEdited is set to "1" in PLUTO if the record contains any changed values. All previously released versions of this data are available on the [DCP Website: BYTES of the BIG APPLE]. Current version: 26v1
Playgrounds with Dedicated Children's Areas (DCAs)

This dataset represents Playgrounds with Dedicated Children's Areas in NYC Parks, previously known as Children’s Play Areas (CPAs). Each DCA is a designated space featuring play equipment specifically designed for children (i.e. play structures and spray showers) and is mapped as a geometric shape within a park property. While commonly known as playgrounds, the term "playground" is avoided because some properties or subproperties labeled as "playgrounds" may include features like adult fitness equipment or handball and basketball courts and may not contain play equipment for children. Explore the [Data Dictionary] Note: The schema and methodology of the dataset was updated in 2024, replacing the previous version from 2019. Play equipment is tracked via the Parks Inspection Program and the Capital Tracker. Parks that are currently rated by the Parks Inspection Program and contain play equipment are considered active Dedicated Children's Areas. Please see the [All Sites (Mapped) dataset] on Open Data for more detail.
Population and Languages of the Limited English Proficient (LEP) Speakers by Community District

Many residents of New York City speak more than one language; a number of them speak and understand non-English languages more fluently than English. This dataset, derived from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS), includes information on over 1.7 million limited English proficient (LEP) residents and a subset of that population called limited English proficient citizens of voting age (CVALEP) at the Community District level. There are 59 community districts throughout NYC, with each district being represented by a Community Board.
Pickups and Drop-offs by Taxi Zone and Industry

These records are generated from trip record submissions made by FHV - High Volume companies and green and yellow taxi Technology Service Providers. This dataset aggregates the trip records to monthly pickup and drop-off counts for different TLC-regulated industries (FHV - High Volume, Green Cab, Yellow Taxi) by taxi zone. It is designed to make this information accessible to a wider audience, including those without the technical expertise to work with raw trip record data.
Pharmaceutical and Syringe Drop-Off Locations in NYC

Locations where NYC residents can drop off their pharmaceuticals and syringes for safe disposal. For more information, see: https://www.nyc.gov/site/dsny/collection/get-rid-of/pharmaceutical-sharps-drop-off.page. Carefully place household sharps in leak-proof and puncture-resistant container labeled "Home Sharps - not for recycling". Bring to a collection center or drop-off site or discard as trash. ALL New York State hospitals and nursing homes are required by law to act as collection centers for used household sharps, including syringes and lancets, with no identification required.
Permitted Nonpotable Wells

A permit is required to install, drill, replace or operate a nonpotable water well in New York City used to supply water to any buildings or affiliated structures. This dataset contains a list of current permits for nonpotable water wells located in New York City. All nonpotable water wells located in New York City need a permit to operate. Data is collected to track permit information of currently permitted nonpotable wells in New York City. Data is collected online through the permitting web application. Each record represents a permit record for all currently permitted nonpotable wells in New York City. This data can be used to verify the location and permit expiration date of currently permitted nonpotable wells in New York City.
Performance Metrics for Workforce Development Programs

The report contains thirteen (13) performance metrics for City's workforce development programs. Each metric can be breakdown by three demographic types (gender, race/ethnicity, and age group) and the program target population (e.g., youth and young adults, NYCHA communities) as well. This report is a key output of an integrated data system that collects, integrates, and generates disaggregated data by Mayor's Office for Economic Opportunity (NYC Opportunity). Currently, the report is generated by the integrated database incorporating data from 18 workforce development programs managed by 5 City agencies. There has been no single "workforce development system" in the City of New York. Instead, many discrete public agencies directly manage or fund local partners to deliver a range of different services, sometimes tailored to specific populations. As a result, program data have historically been fragmented as well, making it challenging to develop insights based on a comprehensive picture. To overcome it, NYC Opportunity collects data from 5 City agencies and builds the integrated database, and it begins to build a complete picture of how participants move through the system onto a career pathway. Each row represents a count of unique individuals for a specific performance metric, program target population, a specific demographic group, and a specific period. For example, if the Metric Value is 2000 with Clients Served (Metric Name), NYCHA Communities (Program Target Population), Asian (Subgroup), and 2019 (Period), you can say that "In 2019, 2,000 Asian individuals participated programs targeting NYCHA communities. Please refer to the Workforce Data Portal for further data guidance (https://workforcedata.nyc.gov/en/data-guidance), and interactive visualizations for this report (https://workforcedata.nyc.gov/en/common-metrics).
Pedicab Registration Plate Lottery Applications

Pedicabs may not operate in New York City without a DCWP-issued pedicab registration plate. By law, the City can only issue new pedicab registration plates when the number of registered pedicabs falls below 840. Every year, DCWP solicits applications to enter a lottery for any pedicab registration plates available, up to the statutory limit of 850. In each lottery cycle, applications are assigned an application order number based on when they are submitted. Applications that qualify for the lottery are randomly assigned a ""Pedicab Lottery Priority Number"". Qualified applications are selected from the lottery in priority number order until the number of available plates have been awarded.
Pedestrian Ramp - Program Progress

New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) has developed a program dedicated to upgrading and installing pedestrian ramps and is committed to making our pedestrian space safe and accessible for all road users. The term corner refers to intersection corners (space on the sidewalk at the intersection of two streets), midblocks (a crossing that is not at an intersection, usually in between two streets), tops of T-shaped intersections, medians or islands (a small section of raised concrete in the street). A corner can have one or more ramps. Dataset used to generate the Program Progress Map on the Pedestrian Ramp Program Website: https://www.nycpedramps.info/program-progress
Pedestrian Ramp Locations

Pedestrian ramps provide access on and off streets and sidewalks and are an essential tool for all pedestrians. This data is a comprehensive list of all pedestrian ramps throughout New York City. Please note that measurements shown are not indicative of whether a particular ramp is compliant with design and construction standards pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). DOT applies additional parameters in its compliance assessment of the data collected by Cyclomedia, including specific site constraints located at or near a pedestrian ramp, otherwise referred to as a technical infeasibility in the ADA. The constraints that constitute a technical infeasibility can include but are not limited to elements such as underground vaults, transit facilities, steep terrain conditions, and limited public right-of-way, which are not readily apparent through the data and imagery collected. As such, compliance determinations at some locations require further analysis and site inspection. These locations are noted as “Pending Technical Review” in the published assessment available at: https://www.nycpedramps.info/survey.
Pedestrian Mobility Plan Pedestrian Demand

Based on citywide data sources for pedestrian generators, NYC DOT developed a holistic, data-driven framework to categorize streets based on pedestrian needs. The plan aims to improve pedestrian comfort and convenience as well as increase walking citywide. NYC DOT created five broad street categories to determine the pedestrian needs on the city’s sidewalks. For more information, please visit NYC DOT website: https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/pedestrians/pedestrian-mobility.shtml
Participatory Budgeting Survey Data

Results of optional anonymous surveys of participatory budgeting participants. Survey data helps inform City Council outreach efforts for participatory budgeting. Surveys are completed either online or in person on paper, after a person has participated. Please note that surveys collected in different years may have slightly different ranges of values. Depending on the year, this may be because the possible range of answers on the questionnaire were changed. Additionally, not all questions were asked in all years. Therefore, survey data is best compared within a survey year, not between survey years.
Participatory Budgeting Projects

Participatory Budgeting is a democratic process in which community members directly decide how to spend part of a public budget. Council Members choose to join Participatory Budgeting New York City (PBNYC), giving at least $1 million from their budget for the whole community to participate in decision-making. It’s a yearlong process of public meetings, to ensure that people have the time and resources to make informed decisions. Community members discuss local needs and develop proposals to meet these needs. Through a public vote, residents then decide which proposals to fund. More info can be found at http://council.nyc.gov/pb/
Parks Zones

Larger NYC parks (generally >20 acres) are subdivided into smaller sections that make inspecting these parks feasible and efficient. These sections are called "zones." The size and boundaries usually conform to one or more of the following criteria: Zones should be inspectable in 1-2 hours; zone boundaries should follow the park’s features (paths, tree lines, etc) whenever possible; and/or conform to pre-existing boundaries used to divide the park for maintenance; and/or define a cohesive area within the park (ballfields, wooded areas, etc). Besides zones, this layer contains a handful of Sitting Areas that are part of larger parks but could not be defined as zones due to their smaller size.
Parks Syringe Disposal Kiosks

• One line of data represents single syringe collection kiosk location, its capacity, how it is mounted, and when it was installed. • Data is collected via an ArcGIS Online web application. • Data is updated as necessary as kiosks are installed, moved, or removed. However, there is a delay between these actions happening and when the data is updated to reflect them. • The installation date is known to be incomplete. Minor shifts in kiosk locations do not typically entail the creation of a new record, rather the point is simply moved. This is part of the NYC Parks Syringe Litter Data Collection: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/browse?Data-Collection_Data-Collection=NYC+Parks+Syringe+Litter&q= You can find the complete data dictionary at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VSUqd1peSc-4D2XnBZNiLdxa0Jg4z62D/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=100172030647057411202&rtpof=true&sd=true
Parks Supervisor Inspections - Inspection Results

Supervisor Inspections are conducted by Park Supervisors in order to assess the conditions and identify issues at parks in their districts. Park Supervisors follow the standards set out in the Parks Inspection Program (PIP) Inspection Manual but are not trained in the protocol to the same degree as PIP inspectors, and supervisor inspections are not subject to the thorough review that PIP inspections receive. During the course of an inspection, Park Supervisors separately rate each feature within a park. This table contains the features inspected, with ratings and notes for each feature. Overall results and inspection-level records are contained in the Parks Supervisor Inspections - Inspection Results dataset; each row in this table represents one inspection of an individual property (park, playground, or zone). Specific feature-level records are contained in the Parks Supervisor Inspections - Feature Findings dataset; each row in this table represents the specific feature's details/rating from each inspection.

Parks Signs

One row of data represents a physical Sign (its location and attributes) that was surveyed or installed by NYC Parks. Data is collected and udpated on an ongoing basis per updates to signage policies, seasonal upgrades, and one-off requests. Some limitations to the data: missing photos of installed signs, occasional shifting of Points (geometry) surveyed by GIS and that NOT ALL SIGNS THAT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED ARE CURRENTLY CAPTURED IN THIS DATASET.
Parks Properties

This dataset identifies property managed partially or solely by NYC Parks. This data has been produced in whole or part using secondary data. Data accuracy is limited by the scale and accuracy of the original sources. Site-specific conditions should be field-verified. Records are added as more land is designated under NYC Parks’ jurisdiction. Each record represents an acquisition.

Parks Concessions

NYC Parks uses a Commercial Off-The-Shelf database for maintaining its concession-related data. In its raw form, the Parks data within the Yardi Voyager database has a convoluted structure, the majority of which is not being used by Parks to store any data. In an effort to make the data more user friendly, the multitude of tables used by the source database have been distilled into two that contain the essential information for a concessions database. One table (Parks Concessions) represents the concession asset – the place and thing which is being operated – and who holds the contract. The other (Parks Concession Transactions) represents transactions between those contract holders and NYC Parks. Parks Concession Transactions is here https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/Parks-Concession-Transactions/vmkw-p55f and can be joined to Parks Concessions using PersonID, PropertyID and UnitID.
