The polygons in this dataset show mapped forest restoration planting polygons. These polygons depict areas where invasive plants were removed and native trees and/or shrubs were planted under the purview of NYC Parks? Natural Resources Group as part of the MillionTreesNYC initiative on property under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks. Spring plantings occur between January 1 and June 30, while Fall plantings occur between July 1 and December 31 of any year. Older restoration polygons were mapped via heads-up digitizing while the location of newer polygons have been collected using a high-accuracy GPS device.

• One line of data represents the location of a canine waste bag dispenser, including what surface it is mounted on, who refills it, who made it, and when it was installed.
• Data is collected by analysts located in each borough and collated by Parks’ Innovation & Performance Management team.
• Data is updated as needed using an ArcGIS Online web application.
• Records for dispensers that are no longer active have been removed
• Not all records have an installation date. Records will only have an OMPPropID and SubProperty name if they fall within the bounds of a sub property.

This dataset represents amenities activated as a part of Cool It! NYC, a Citywide plan to increase the amount of cooling features available to the public during heat emergencies, particularly in neighborhoods that face the dangers of high heat. This is part of the Cool It! NYC 2020 Data Collection, which includes the following amenities:

Drinking Fountains: Indicates whether a drinking fountain is activated, not yet activated, broken, or under construction.

Spray Showers: Indicates whether a spray shower installed before July 2020 is activated, not yet activated, broken, or under construction. At this time, spray showers are mapped to the middle of parks.

Cooling Sites: To measure neighborhoods that are the most at risk during extreme heat, NYC Health and Columbia University developed the New York City Heat Vulnerability Index, or HVI. Parks used this data to direct new cooling elements to neighborhoods with HVIs of 4 and 5.

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.

This dataset captures all water features within NYC Parks. It combines the State’s hydrography layer with known water fountains. Made for cartographic purposes, the attribute data isn’t as maintained as the geometry.

Tree Contract Work Details contains information related to work performed on specific tree work contracts. This dataset can be joined to the Forestry Work Orders dataset (https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Environment/Forestry-Work-Orders/bdjm-n7q4) by joining work_order_id from Tree Contract Work Details to OBJECTID from Forestry Work Orders. There are many work_order_ids per single contract_number. Not all work orders in Forestry Work Orders are represented in this dataset because it is only used to track work on specific contracts.

Blockface data from the TreesCount! 2015 Street Tree Census, conducted by volunteers and staff organized by NYC Parks & Recreation and partner organizations. Blockface data includes tree counts and data collection status by block. Accompanying street tree data is available, indicating tree-level details such as tree species, size and other characteristics.

The NYC Parks Events Listing database is used to store event information displayed on the Parks website, nyc.gov/parks. There are seven related tables that make up the this database:

1. Events_Events table (This is the primary table that contains basic data about every event. Each record is an event.)
2. Events_Categories (Each record is a category describing an event. One event can be in more than one category.)
3. Events_Images (Each record is an image related to an event. One event can have more than one image.)
4. Events_Links (Each record is a link with more information about an event. One event can have more than one link.)
5. Events_Locations (Each record is a location where an event takes place. One event can have more than one location.)
6. Events_Organizers (Each record contains a group or person organizing an event. One event can have more than one organizer.)
7. Events_YouTube (Each record is a link to a YouTube video about an event. One event can have more than one YouTube video.)

The Events_Events table is the primary table. All other tables can be related by joining on the event_id. This data contains records from 2013 and on. For a complete list of related datasets, please follow This Link

This data tracks the blocks that have been planted through NYC Parks’ street tree block planting program, a major component of the MillionTreesNYC initiative. When a block planting is completed for specific street segment, all available and appropriate locations for street tree installation have been planted. This dataset is based on the Citywide Street Centerline data.

This table is the primary table for information about work orders, and contains general information - including a description of the work, assigned title, request date and completion date - about each work order. Each row represents a single work order. The primary key field is EVT_CODE. The EVT_OBJECT field can be joined to the Assets table on OBJ_CODE to know which asset the work order was for.

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 Concessions is here https://data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/Parks-Concessions/53m8-jdtg and can be joined to Parks Concession Transactions using PersonID, PropertyID and UnitID.

This dataset, formally referred to as ""Functional Parkland"" consists of park properties under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks. The shapes in this dataset are drawn to make printed maps clear and easy to read. Consequently, the shapes in this file should not be used for any spatial calculations. For non-cartographic purposes, consult https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Recreation/Parks-Properties/enfh-gkve

This dataset uses the standard NYC projection of NAD_1983_StatePlane_New_York_Long_Island_FIPS_3104_Feet. Lengths are in feet and areas in square feet.

This dataset contains GPS coordinates for each ice ladder NYC Parks places around lakes and ponds. These ladders are intended for rescuing anyone who falls through the ice of a lake or pond during winter. Each record is an ice ladder location. Some locations have multiple ice ladders, which is shown in the LADDER_COUNT field. This dataset is updated annually before winter so maps can be included in borough snow manuals.
