Schoolyard to Playgrounds
Schoolyard to Playgrounds
The Schoolyards to Playgrounds initiative began with PlaNYC 2007 as a way to expand public use at existing City facilities and improve access to open spaces during non-school hours which includes weekends, holidays, and during the summer.
NYC Parks, in collaboration with the Department of Education (DOE) and the nonprofit Trust for Public Land have improved hundreds of DOE operated schoolyards through capital improvements, including play equipment, painted sports surfaces, trees, and benches. The program is an important approach to reaching the city’s target to getting more New Yorkers within walking distance to open-space. In many neighborhoods, these DOE schoolyards are one of the few resources that can be improved and provide publicly accessible open space. Each record in this dataset represents a participating DOE Schoolyard at the time of the dataset's publication. The schoolyard's boundaries have been drawn 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. For more information on the Schoolyard to Playgrounds program, visit: https://www.nycgovparks.org/greening/planyc/schoolyards This dataset may be updated throughout the year as school's join or exit the program. |

Greenstreets
Greenstreets
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.
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. |

NYC Parks Structures Map
NYC Parks Structures Map
This dataset includes structures within NYC Parks properties. Structures are broadly defined as "an assembly of materials forming construction for occupancy or use."
One line of data is a structure. The dataset contains fields that are maintained by multiple agencies including NYC Parks, NYC DoITT, and NYC Planning. Where possible, updated values are pulled from authoritative sources and updated weekly - for more details about specific fields and where they come from please see https://github.com/NYCParks-data/Structures/wiki.
The System ID and BIN (Building Identification Number) are both required fields.
The Geosupport table is a related table that has information about addresses for these structures. A separate table was necessary because there is a one-to-many relationship between structures and addresses (i.e., one structure can have more than one address).
A known limitation to this dataset is that functions other than 'comfort station' can and should be attributed to many of the structures. This information will eventually live and be maintained in a related table where all the functions of individual structures can be seen. |

NYC Wetlands
NYC Wetlands
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.

This dataset corresponds to a current availability of plant species in various containers being offered to clients of the Greenbelt Native Plant Center. Each line of data represents one instance of a particular plant species in a specific container size within the dataset. Data is generated using groware software application to export to an excel document. Data is updated ad hoc, depending on production and distribution needs (sometimes multiple times daily, other times 1xweekly or bi-weekly, for example). Data has not been geocoded, anonymized, etc to the best of my knowledge. The dataset changes to include new species that are grown and were not prevously distributed by GNPC. The dataset also has entries removed over time, as species are no longer grown. All fields are required.

Parks Supervisor Inspections - Feature Findings
Parks Supervisor Inspections - Feature Findings
City Government
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.

GreenThumb provides programming and material support to over 550 community gardens in New York City. NYC Parks GreenThumb staff visit all active community gardens under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks once each calendar year, subject to staff capacity. These site visits typically occur during the summer months and representatives of licensed garden groups are invited to attend. During these site visits, NYC Parks GreenThumb staff observe and record quantitative and qualitative information related to the physical status of the garden, as well as its ongoing operation, maintenance, and programming. This information is used by NYC Parks GreenThumb to inform maintenance needs at the garden and to help NYC Parks GreenThumb understand the needs of garden groups so that we can plan accordingly. In addition, this information is necessary for NYC Parks GreenThumb to confirm that publicly accessible community gardens under its jurisdiction are being operated in safe manner and in accordance with the NYC Parks GreenThumb License Agreement and applicable NYS and NYC laws and regulations. NYC Parks GreenThumb may conduct additional site visits as deemed necessary. |
