SUMMARY:Querying Big Bus Data off of the Open Data Portal
DESCRIPTION:In this training\, data scientists on the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s (MTA) Data & Analytics team will teach attendees how to query big bus data off of the Socrata-powered open data portals using Socrata Query Language (SoQL). The first half of the session will be done entirely using in-browser tools\, no special software required! \nFor the second half of the session\, we’ll dive deeper into how to join bus route segment speed data to geospatial shapes in order to create map-based visuals. Python experience recommended to those who want to follow along\, though all are welcome to listen in and learn! A URL to a GitHub repository will be added to this event page at a later date.

SUMMARY:NYC's Changing Landscape: Discover What's Being Built Around You
DESCRIPTION:We’ve all seen construction sites and scaffolding appear in our neighborhood\, tried to peek through the cracks and wondered: what are they building over there? This presentation will showcase how publicly available NYC Department of Buildings data can be brought together and deployed to give New Yorkers and industry pros alike a birds eye view on what’s rising up in their communities\, all at once and at a glance! \nJoin Bonnie Stefanick\, New Yorker and citizen data scientist\, through a high level overview of how the things that get built show up in permitting data using live demonstrations of data sets that capture the permitting process and a daily view of projects happening in NYC neighborhoods\, while giving a peek under the hood at the data in action from how it is pulled from the open data APIs and brought to life in tools.

SUMMARY:NYC Agency Maps\, Tools\, & Geospatial Data for 2026
DESCRIPTION:New York City agencies create and publish a huge volume of geospatial data each year. They use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) – computer-based tools to store\, visualize\, and analyze this geographic data. This panel will review publicly-available tools and datasets\, discuss the state of GIS technology in the city\, and consider how the City uses geospatial data to serve NYC residents.  Join this conversation with agency GIS leaders about new maps & tools\, geospatial data\, and initiatives for 2026. \nModerator\nLee Ilan\, NYC Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation \nPanelists\nJosh Friedman\, NYC Emergency Management\nMatt Croswell\, NYC Department of City Planning\nAdam Barin\, NYC Mayor’s Office of Operations

SUMMARY:Exploring an Independent Perspective on Emergency Response Times
DESCRIPTION:The NYC Independent Budget Office (IBO) aims to enhance understanding of New York City’s budget\, public policy\, and economy through independent\, data-driven analysis. In this event\, IBO Budget and Policy Analyst Valerie Gudino will showcase how Open Data can be used to analyze and visualize fiscal years 2014-2024 citywide ambulance response times. Valerie will walk through how emergency response and dispatch data can be leveraged to examine patterns in emergency medical response by borough and citywide. This event is ideal for anyone interested in public safety\, emergency response or data visualization. Valerie will present the report findings and conclude with a Q&A session.

SUMMARY:Walk the Data: Mapping User Experience (UX) Mobility on NYC Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join this hands-on walking workshop that turns NYC streets into a living lab! Together\, we will test a custom\, data-enabled pedestrian routing system built from publicly available layers such as sidewalks\, pedestrian ramps\, traffic volumes\, thermal comfort\, tree canopy\, and other walkability indicators. The goal is to see what these datasets capture about moving through the city and what they miss. This approach\, called UX Mobility routing\, was developed and tested in Milan and is now being applied to a selected NYC area to spark new insights on inclusive\, experience-aware mobility. \nLed by moderators from Systematica and Transform Transport\, participants will follow the predefined route in small groups and use a simple guided toolkit to document the sensory\, cognitive\, emotional\, and physical side of the walk. We will consider factors like noise\, crowding\, comfort\, clarity\, and perceived safety\, then compare lived experience with what the mapped layers suggest. The session concludes with a collective data–experience gap map and a set of takeaways on how NYC Open Data could better reflect real walkability through new layers\, combinations of data\, or proxy indicators such as using traffic patterns to estimate noise. Open to everyone\, with no technical background needed\, all mobility levels welcome\, and materials provided. \nThe meeting point for this event will be in front of 5 MetroTech Center in Downtown Brooklyn.
