Atomic polygons serve as a set of basic building blocks for generating the polygons of many of the district types represented in the CSCL database. Feature classes such as election district, school district, census block, FDNY administrative company, and community district can be dissolved by combining the appropriate fields in atomic polygons.

Launched in 1996, the Greenstreets program began as a partnership between the NYC Parks and the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT). The program was created to change unused road areas into green spaces that beautify neighborhoods, improve air quality, reduce air temperatures, and calm traffic. Greenstreets later became a component of the City's "green infrastructure," with some containing bioswales or rain gardens to divert and/or filter stormwater. For more information about the Greenstreets program and green infrastructure, visit https://www.nycgovparks.org/greening/green-infrastructure.

Shapefile of zoning section map index, grid to determine which zoning section map relates to specific areas of NYC.
A sectional index grid to determine which Zoning Map refers to specific areas of New York City. Zoning maps show the boundaries of zoning districts throughout the city. The maps are regularly updated after the City Planning Commission and the City Council have approved proposed zoning changes. The set of 126 maps, which are part of the Zoning Resolution, are displayed in 35 sections. Each section is identified by a number from 1 to 35. Each map covers an area of approximately 8,000 feet (north/south) by 12,500 feet (east/west).

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.

A shapefile with all DOT pedestrian plaza locations across New York City.

Day Care Center

Areas in each borough were ranked on a pedestrian KSI density basis. Areas were selected from most dense to least, such that, when combined, account for half of all of pedestrian KSI in the borough. Developed as part of the Borough Pedestrian Safety Action Plans.

Path Station Locations

This shape file date set provides location information data for LinkNYC kiosks that have been approved and installed.
It includes sites that have replaced public pay telephones (PPT) and new sites that have been reviewed by community and elected officials.

Intersections where DOT installs traffic calming measures that guide drivers to turn left or right at a safer speed and angle, as well as increase visibility for pedestrians in the crosswalk.

The Safe Streets for Seniors program is an initiative aimed at increasing safety for older New Yorkers. Based on factors such as senior population density, injury crashes, and senior trip generators, DOT has selected and studied Senior Pedestrian Focus Areas. Within these areas, DOT evaluates potential safety improvements and also conducts educational outreach to senior centers.

New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) Carshare program designates dedicated parking spaces for the use of eligible carshare organizations. These parking spaces are located at curbside locations and in municipal parking facilities citywide. For more information, please visit the carshare website for more information: https://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/motorist/carshare.shtml

In 2016 NYC Parks contracted with the UVM Spatial Analysis Lab to use modern remote sensing and object-based image analysis to create a new wetlands map for New York City. Data inputs include Light Detection and Ranging Data, State and Federal Wetland Inventories, soils, and field data. Because the map was conservative in its wetlands predictions, NYC Parks staff improved the map through a series of desktop and field verification efforts. From June to November 2020, NYC Parks staff field verified the majority of wetlands on NYC Parks' property.

The map will be opportunistically updated depending on available field information and delineations. Another dedicated field verification effort has not been planned. As of June 2021, no subsequent updates to the data are scheduled.

Original field names were updated to field names that are easier to understand.

This dataset was developed to increase awareness regarding the location and extent of wetlands to promote restoration and conservation in New York City. This map does not supersede U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) wetlands maps and has no jurisdictional authority. It should be used alongside NWI and NYSDEC datasets as a resource for identifying likely locations of wetlands in New York City. Mapped features vary in the confidence of their verification status, ranging from "Unverified" (meaning the feature exists in its original remotely mapped form and has not been ground truthed) to "Verified - Wetland Delineation" (meaning the boundaries and type of wetland have been verified during an official wetland delineation). Because of the rapid nature of the protocol and the scale of data collection, this product is not a subsitute for on-site investigations and field delineations. The dataset also includes broad classifications for each wetland type, e.g. estuarine, emergent wetland, forested wetland, shrub/scrub wetland, or water. Cowardin classifcations were not used given rapid verfication methods.

The accuracy of the wetlands map has improved over time as a result of the verification process. Fields were added over time as necessitated by the workflow and values were updated with information, either from the field verifications, delineation reports, or desktop analysis.

Enhanced Crossings are marked high-visibility crosswalks on calm streets with low vehicle volumes and a strong pedestrian desire to cross. Standard DOT toolbox treatments are used (ADA pedestrian ramps, pedestrian warning signs and high-visibility crosswalk markings) to improve the mobility and accessibility of pedestrians.
