Join our virtual event to discover a cutting-edge tool that pinpoints prime tree planting sites across NYC using NYC Open Data. This model empowers NYC Parks foresters to expand the City’s green canopy more efficiently. The model leverages datasets such as NYC Parks Tree & Site, NYC Planimetrics, DOT Traffic Signs, and the DOH Heat Vulnerability Index to drive site selection. Shawn Ganz, Data & Product Designer with NYC Parks, will break down the model’s purpose, methodology, and data foundations while advocating for greater open data access in urban planning. Wrap up the session with an engaging Q&A and discussion on future applications.
