This workshop will introduce an easy-to-use BoardStat tool to query NYC 311 – service requests and explore trends in health, safety and quality of life concerns. Additional key datasets/ tools will also be reviewed. Come ready to learn and get right into datasets and graphs.
Join BetaNYC for bagels and coffee with the Housing Data Coalition! Learn how a group of civic technologists came together to harness open data for housing justice, and how creating a shared infrastructure to work with datasets across NYC agencies has enabled them to meet the needs of New Yorkers.
This is a community-led event to learn how widely-used technology harms New York communities, and how residents can demand change.
