NYC Open Data Week 2023 - Mar 14 2023 

Using the goals set forth by the Truck Safety program from the NYC Department of Transportation’s Freight Mobility team, this presentation will demonstrate a prototype Android application created using the Unity engine that will help users to navigate NYC’s Truck Routes. By putting themselves in the driver’s seat, users will learn about a truck’s blind spots and how to best ensure their safety as a pedestrian, cyclist, and driver.

ORGANIZERS: Maddalena Romano, Hong Yuan, Lisa Matthews, Catherine Ponte, Demel Gaillard, Tahfimul Latif, NYC Department of Transportation (DOT)

ABOUT OPEN DATA WEEK
Open Data Week is an annual festival of community-driven events organized and produced by the NYC Mayor’s Office of Data Analytics and BetaNYC. Every year, New Yorkers come together all across the five boroughs to celebrate New York City’s Open Data Law, which was signed into law on March 7, 2012. Coincidentally, the first weekend of March is also International Open Data Day.  With these dates anchoring Open Data Week, we rally NYC’s civic tech and open data communities and offer opportunities for more people to learn about and engage with municipal open data. https://www.open-data.nyc/
