Exploring the Congestion Relief Zone with Big MTA Open Data

In this virtual training, MTA’s Data & Analytics Team will walk participants through how to pull big datasets from the open data portal via the API using Python. Participants will briefly learn a bit about MTA’s Open Data Program before being invited to follow along while the team demos how to pull MTA’s larger datasets off of the Socrata platform. While the data is pulling, the team will show some interesting analysis you’ll be able to do, centered around the Congestion Relief Zone!
