Welcome to Dashburgh! We’re pleased to present data on how we carry out key activities to deliver critical City services. Dashburgh draws on data from 32 data sources across the City’s portfolio of activity. We launch today sharing data on: 311 Service Requests, Administration, Equity, Finances, Neighborhood Development, Operations, Public Safety, Sustainability and Resilience.
This is our first release. We expect to increase the number of data sources (including those updated automatically), frequency of updates, and openness of these data sources over time.
Changes from Prior Release
The catalog below describes data sources presented on Dashburgh’s cards, charts, and maps. Each is organized by title, listing the data source, series (years), update frequency (monthly, daily, or annual), how the data is updated (automatically or manually), data openness (open or not yet open), and the Web link where open data is shared. Cards, charts, and maps that display more than one measure are listed on multiple rows. Data that is not automatically updated lists the most recent date of update on the chart.
