Beyond Static Open Data: A Citi Bike Time Series Case Study

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Much open data is static. It often corresponds to either a snapshot in time or some historical summary. While static data is surely useful, looking at how data changes over time opens up new avenues for exploration. Looking backward, we can identify trends and garner insights. Looking forward, we can generate forecasts and try to predict the future. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Citi Bike is the primary bikeshare in NYC, and they </span><a href="https://ride.citibikenyc.com/system-data"><span style="font-weight: 400;">open up</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> a lot of their data. They publish datasets about trips that riders have taken, and they have a real-time API that publishes the current information about all stations, such as the number of bikes and docks available. However, this data is largely static. If I want to answer questions like, “Will there be a dock available for me by the time I get to my destination station?”, I need to be able to forecast the number of docks at the destination station. And for that forecast, I need a </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">time series</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of historical data about the number of docks at that station in order to build a forecasting model.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">To answer such questions, I started pinging the Citi Bike API every 2 minutes back in 2016, and I have been collecting this data ever since. Data from August 2016 to December 2021 is publicly available on </span><a href="https://www.kaggle.com/rosenthal/citi-bike-stations"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kaggle</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. In this event, I will show how the data collection system works, and how I keep its operations cheap and worry-free. This data collection system can be reused for other open, real-time APIs. I’ll then show how we can analyze and visualize the data in order to learn about different Citi Bike stations in NYC. Finally, I’ll answer my original question by building a model to forecast the number of bikes available at a given station.</span>

Towards SimCity for NYC: Integrating 20+ NYC Open Data Sets into Apps at WeGov.NYC

NYC produces lots of great open data but it's hard for people to understand how various datasets connect to each other to get a broader perspective on what's actually going on in NYC government.

The WeGovNYC Databook project normalizes NYC Open Data datasets, releases those normalized datasets back to the public, and then builds apps with that data.

We've current integrated over two dozen datasets together to create four different app/experiences:
<ul>
<li>Organizations: see the most comprehensive open data-driven profiles of all city agencies</li>
<li>Capital Projects: see profiles of each project with location, budget and timeline information</li>
<li>Districts: see capital projects, requests, facilities and council funding by city council district, community district and neighborhood (NTA)</li>
<li>Titles: see how civil service titles, job positions, salaries, employees and job listings, demographics and more connect to give your a view of the city workforce</li>
</ul>
These experiences are first steps towards a more ambitious goal to deliver New Yorkers a SimCity-style experience for interacting with NYC Open Data so that data can be used effectively for civic engagement and government transparency purposes.

The session agenda:
<ul>
<li>Our (brief) perspective on the current state of NYC Open Data</li>
<li>A call for NYC to normalize (aka standardized UIDs) within its open datasets</li>
<li>An explanation for how we at WeGov.NYC normalizes NYC Open Data and republishes it for other to use</li>
<li>A tour of our 4 Databook Apps</li>
<li>Our plan for giving New Yorkers a SimCity-style interface for NYC</li>
<li>What projects are you working on? How can we help you?</li>
</ul>

Can We Have More Green Roofs?

How can we use data to cope with environmental issues and propose strategic responses?

"<em>Can We Have More Green Roofs?</em>" is a research project intending to examine the qualification of currently available and appropriate empty roof spaces in NYC owned by the city government that can be converted to green roofs to mediate the negative impact of the urban heat island effect.

The project covers the geographical area of a selected borough in New York suffering the most from the heat island effect and finds available spaces to address the issue. By examining the outcome through GIS multi-criteria analysis based on the NYC <span class="il">Open</span> <span class="il">Data</span> platform datasets, we hypothesize that the city government can add additional green roofs to the building in the selected borough experiencing severe heat island effects and lacking green urban infrastructures.

Through this event, attendees will have a deeper understanding of the methodology on how data can help identify urban issues and inform planning strategies. There will be data exploration, walkthroughs, and application demonstrations.

We look forward to seeing you on the 12th!

Hundreds of stories, one place to start: NYC Health Data

The NYC Health Department (DOHMH) works to protect and promote the health of all New Yorkers. Unfortunately, differences in neighborhood resources have led to unfair health outcomes, with some New Yorkers living longer, healthier lives than others. Structural racism contributes to the disproportionate burden of disease, including COVID-19, in some communities. Learn where you can find and how you can use health data to advocate for health equity in your community.

We will demonstrate how to access and use data from health surveys, disease registries, vital statistics, and more.

You Can Build It! -- Going from Spreadsheets to Airtable to Apps

During this workshop, I'll show you how to build extremely useful apps with Airtable, and how to use other free, widely used technology (Slides and Figma) to create shovel-ready, software specifications that users, developers and decisionmakers can actually understand and collaboratively improve.

These tools can make the whole software development process less intimidating and more accessible, enabling you to get better feedback from your stakeholders. Ultimately that leads to building apps faster, better and cheaper.

For people working in change resistant organizations. these tools and techniques can enable you to get "complex" database design and implementation work done from the bottom up, and in a way that minimized institutional resistance to change and (maybe) avoids unnecessary approval processes.

This training is best for people who:

* are managing lots of spreadsheets and wish they "all connected"
* are now or want to build apps that organize complex information

Tracking Freedom of Information Requests in New York

The Astoria Digital team is sharing what they've learned about Freedom of Information Law Requests through a project tracking the FOIL requests to Police Departments in New York State. They are creating a site with rich data visualizations that will serve as a dashboard to track a set of FOIL requests.

This talk aims to engage people who use FOIL requests for their work, and those who have never used Freedom of Information Law requests before and would like to learn. Engineers, designers and those who work with data are welcome to contribute to the conversation about creating a site that visualizes data about FOIL requests.

Equity Research Data Platform: Encouraging Research and Collaboration

Join the Mayor’s Office for Economic Opportunity (NYC Opportunity) as we host a virtual conversation to discuss a new initiative to create a data and research infrastructure to support the ongoing study of the disproportionate impact of social inequality and COVID-19 on communities of color. 

While the effects of the COVID-19 public health crisis are widespread, they have had a particularly acute impact on communities of color. As the City embarks on the long road to recovery, it inevitably faces the challenge of deeply rooted racial and economic disparities exacerbated during this crisis.

To help advance the greater goal of equity and inclusion, it is imperative to bring together research and policy expertise on available data while expanding upon the data sets that we collect. In doing so, we may begin to identify systemic factors driving disproportionate outcomes, evaluate programs meant to alleviate adverse policy effects, and develop evidence-based programs that support an equitable recovery. 

To this end, NYC Opportunity is developing a new data platform dedicated to curating critical data sets within a strong governance framework and building a peer network of researchers using this data to focus on issues of equity. This integrated data platform is intended to provide a single place to securely collect, store and analyze data in a collaborative manner.
The event is open to researchers, designers, program managers, policy experts, community leaders and others interested in advancing equity data research and analysis.

How to Design & Execute a Data for Good Project Using Open Data: An Introduction to DataKind’s Scoping Approach

The increased access to open data has presented new opportunities for better decision making, and the potential to create greater social impact. However, the availability of raw data is not enough to catalyze change on its own. Figuring out how to use that data - that is, defining the problem statement that you are trying to solve - is what we consider to be the most challenging part of executing a Data for Good projects. 

This session promotes the use of open data for Data for Good projects where we’ll provide an overview of DataKind’s scoping process and case examples of how problem statements can be identified, evaluated, and executed. By attending this session, you’ll learn best practices in Data for Good project work and understand how open data could be leveraged within a data science scoping framework. You’ll also learn where to find how-to guides and other resources within the DataKind Playbook, which will be a globally accessible living knowledge base that will provide standards and processes for data-for-good projects. This event will be useful for anyone who uses open data in decision-making, including data scientists, technologists, and social sector actors.

From open data to open algorithms

How can the open data movement inform the emerging work on algorithmic transparency?

In this session, we will ask open data practitioners about their conclusions from working on open data and how to apply this knowledge to emerging algorithmic transparency models. We will discuss what information should be published about algorithms used in the public sector, and how we can achieve meaningful transparency that sparks public engagement and enhances understanding of how governments use algorithms.

Algorithms support many of the highest impact decisions affecting individuals, for example related to individual liberty or entitlement to essential public services. Due to the significant impact that algorithmic-assisted decisions made by public sector organisations can have, there is a need to provide the highest standards of transparency and accountability for the public.

Using data to support antiracist policies in schools

In this workshop, brought to you by the Education Council Consortium Data Squad, we will talk about a variety of available data sources to describe how well New York City public schools support culturally responsive education, maintain diverse teacher populations that are representative of the students they serve, practice restorative justice, and equitably allocate resources. We will go into some detail about how to use data about race and enrollment to promote school integration, and discuss how data can be used for advocacy. The workshop will be geared toward parent leaders, community education council members, public school students, and anyone looking for data to support the work to make schools antiracist.

MISSING THEM, an open data journalism project to document New Yorkers who have died due to COVID-19

As COVID-19 deaths increased in New York City through March and peaking in April, we started looking for data. We knew what we could see: obituaries in local papers. So we began tracking them — pulling names from Legacy.com as well as collecting names that various unions started to make public. We also were able to get very limited data from the city’s medical examiner and health department. While the coronavirus  impacted all of New York, it hit Black and brown communities in the city particularly hard — as THE CITY reported in early April, Bronx residents were twice as likely to die from the virus as other New Yorkers. The MISSING THEM project has evolved into a living memorial of nearly 2,000 publicly-identified deaths — all vetted with public records, searchable, filterable and grouped by occupation — and nearly 300 obituaries written. In addition to the publicly reported deaths, we launched an extensive crowdsourcing campaign asking folks to share stories of those they lost through text, email, voicemail and a Google form. To date, we’ve heard from more than 500 families and friends who lost someone due to COVID-19. Through our collection and engagement efforts, we slowly built out a relational dataset with details about those who have died, their underlying conditions, their last-known addresses from voter registration data and narrative stories submitted by family members. While the published obituaries in local media are about 70% white, MISSING THEM’s community submissions, fueled by our engagement effort, more closely mirror the city’s reality when it comes to COVID-19 deaths: That virus has impacted the above communities in NYC disproportionately. For MISSING THEM submission, 40% identify as not white and 26% as white. Gender numbers also closely align with reality and not with what is recognized in public obituaries in local media. Since the summer, and at different times, a team of graduate interns and students from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY and Columbia University, undergraduates from Boston College and a team of 30 volunteers we trained have worked on the project daily. MISSING THEM is the only programmatically-backed, investigative journalism project focused on those who have died from COVID-19 in the United States. THE CITY held a three-day event in December consisting of online programs that included hundreds of family members of those who have died and social service providers, advocates and community members. Those events will spawn others this spring and summer.

Educating Future Data Workers about Ethics, Bias

The students and early career data professionals of today are the data curators and experts of tomorrow. It’s important that they have the right tools and knowledge so that their work -- and the associated data -- is as good and impactful as possible.
In this discussion our experts will talk about why it's important to bring the topics of data equity, ethics, and access into the educational process -- both in and out of school. We’ll cover: 

- What that looks like in college and for early career employees
- Why it matters
- How to mentor tomorrow’s data experts 
- Why a discussion and commitment to data and ethics makes data, analytics better all around. 
- Why getting students and early career data workers to take public interest technology jobs is so important.

Opening Educational Resources for Law

Massive open online courses have gained popularity for making free, open, and unlimited learning possible for anyone interested in a wide range of subjects. Unfortunately, when it comes to legal education, such resources are scarce. Legal texts and case books -- invaluable data sources -- are more often locked behind costly paywalls than not. This is not just a problem for those in the legal profession. In fact, it slows down learning, info exchange, and progress in a field that effects all of us by shaping our infrastructure for justice and policy in our communities. Now, we hope to be a part of building an open culture for law.

This workshop will start with a short presentation to introduce you to open educational resources (OER) for law and how they are transforming legal education and practice. Then, we’ll move into breakout groups for a prototyping session:

- Persona. Select a persona in the legal system (e.g., legal aid representative, judge, student, etc.)
- Prototype. Design a prototype for opening the resources familiar to this archetype (e.g., coursework, legal data, case law, administrative information), with a focus on data collection and maintenance, applications, human-centered design, and advocacy
- Pilot. Identify ways to test the prototype and/or to build a replicable model to open up the resources in your community and beyond

By the end of the workshop, participants will gain a better understanding about the basics of OER and will leave with a kit for how to deploy OER, themselves. This can be impactful for not just the legal system, but for society more broadly. Teach and learn from your fellow attendees about civic hacking / the law / advocacy / data / education. Together, we’ll build a viable path to opening more and better resources.

While we will have an eye towards NYC Open Data, we welcome participants from anywhere and everywhere!

Equitable Design Research

User Experience (UX) Research is a valuable process that uncovers and bridges the needs and pain points of users and product teams. Since the UX research process directly shapes products and human behavior, we must be mindful of the way we uncover and implement insights in order to not perpetuate problematic behaviors/stereotypes. This workshop will discuss the basics of user research methodology while reflecting on how to design research studies that are more equitable and inclusive.

TASC: Democratizing Data for Community Planning

The Municipal Art Society of New York (MAS) and Regional Plan Association (RPA), two of the New York area’s longest standing planning advocacy not-for-profits, have teamed together to create Technical Advancement and Support of Comprehensive Planning and CEQR Reform (TASC). TASC is an innovative new comprehensive and community planning mapping tool that uses open data to assist elected officials, planning practitioners, and most importantly communities on a wide-range of land use actions that affect future development. In the absence of meaningful community-based or comprehensive planning, TASC allows for data-driven community involvement in the planning process and democratizes the availability, accessibility, and usability of public spatial data and advanced planning tools.

As a comprehensive mapping tool, TASC incorporates an extensive array of planning and social vulnerability factors based on regulatory, real estate, neighborhood conditions and socioeconomic conditions at the city tax lot level, that can be used by communities to better anticipate future development in their neighborhoods. As a community planning tool, TASC provides a forum for engaging in community-based groups for planning educational purposes and to glean input to meet the specific needs of New York neighborhoods.

TASC comes at an opportune time. In addition to aligning with the City Council’s burgeoning comprehensive planning efforts, ongoing public land use review (ULURP) and CEQR reform, and a renewed focus on community-based planning, TASC provides a flexible and adaptable vehicle to address development in post COVID-19 New York. Specifically, TASC prioritizes public health factors and social justice issues as they relate to equitable future development, residential and business displacement, and housing affordability, areas that current CEQR methodologies do not adequately address.

Our session will be presented by MAS’s Director of Advocacy, Spencer Williams. The presentation will show how TASC can be used by communities to create and test out various development scenarios. It will also show how TASC would improve the reliability of CEQR in anticipating future development and creating a more accurate analytical framework for evaluating impacts of major land use decisions on city neighborhoods. TASC will also help inform reliable and transparent mitigation measures. Mr. Williams will also discuss the next steps for TASC as it transitions from a mapping tool to a more refined predictive model.

After the presentation, TASC team members Marcel Negret and Maulin Mehta of RPA and Spencer Williams and Caroline Thompson of MAS will be prepared to field questions.

Using NYC OpenData for Teaching Data Analysis to School Kids and Adults

The goal of this workshop is to train participants on using NYC Open data to teach data analysis. The event is for middle and high school students who learn the importance of open data in solving real-world problems. They will also learn to make data-driven decisions from an early age. This event is also beneficial for teachers and school administrators, describing how and why they should start data science programs in their schools/school districts.
The workshop will have two parts; in the first part, participants will learn basic Python programming, and in the second part, they will work on an NYC open data set. The data will be analyzed and answer some questions. The session will also discuss how to present a report with charts.

K12 Data Science as a Foundation for Equity

Data Science presents a rare opportunity in K12 education, with profound implications for equity. It’s a skillset that brings economic security, and is an important part of being an informed citizen in a data-rich world. With relevant data available in every discipline, we have a chance to integrate computing, instead of competing for instructional hours.
Successful implementation of Data Science in K12 requires a balance between computing, statistics/visualization, and domain knowledge. If taught as a computing class, we'll get a generation of students who can competently perform a linear regression without knowing if their analysis is valid. A pure-statistics class that is focused on math alone will not prepare students for the computational nature of data science, and a class that ignores the role of domain knowledge will lack the personal relevance and cultural connections necessary to make it relevant to all students and subjects.
This presentation will discuss Bootstrap:Data Science, a free Data Science curriculum that has operated at national scale since 2017. We'll share some of the lessons learned from various implementations in small summer programs all the way to launching a cohort with the New York City DOE, as well as DOs and DONTs that any teacher, administrator, or curriculum designer should keep in mind.

Visualizing data for school funding equity

The quality of a child's education depends upon an arbitrary line. School district borders have power and can be leveraged for equity thanks in large part to school funding data that lays bare the severe disparities between school districts along racial and socioeconomic lines. In this session, we will discuss the importance of visualizing school finance and demographic data in identifying these inequitable geographies.

Former data analysts at EdBuild (a research org focused on improving school funding inequities, closed in June 2020), Megan and Cecilia were responsible for building tools to open our data to the public and make our equity analyses accessible and reproducible for researchers, journalists, and advocates. We will cover two different R products created to open our datasets of school district finance, student demographics, and community economic indicators for every school district in the United States.

1. First we will review the R packages published for technical users of education data: edbuildr and edbuildmapr. This review will include a walk through of the libraries and examples of use cases with an overview of the process for authoring packages in R.
2. Second we will present an R Shiny Dashboard, developed for non-technical users of education data to visualize and export tables, maps, and plots.

What Would You Build with Normalized NYC Open Data? What If WeGov.NYC?

NYC produces lots of great open data, but its often hard to use because UIDs in one dataset don't match with UIDs in another.

So we've built an open source toolset to "normalize" data and republish it via API. Then we built some apps on top of it. And you can too!

Our first app is the "Databook", an ever-evolving city agency directory tying over a dozen (and counting) datasets together to give people easy access to information about government: agency budgets, staff contact info, capital projects, facilities and more!

Our goal is to make the Databook the most comprehensive website about city government operations - built entirely with open data and APIs.

Our other goal is to be part of something more: an alliance of people and projects helping each other produce the solutions we need to create the city we deserve.

The session agenda:
* A brief discussion about how great open data is and how much greater it would be if it there were more UIDs shared between datasets.
* What datasets do you want to see normalized?
* An explanation for how WeGov.NYC normalizes data and republishes it via API.
* A brief tour of our city agency Databook.
* An invitation for you to use our normalized city data and our API.
* What projects are you working on? How can we help you?

Complaints, Outages, Service Interruptions, Work Orders - Trying to Make Sense of NYCHA Heating Outage Data

For many years, NYCHA residents have dealt with persistent heat outages - an issue made even more important during COVID-19 and a particularly snowy and cold winter. In this session, we’ll start with a seemingly simple question: how many people living in NYCHA housing lose access to heat each month?

In the journey to try to answer that question, we’ll untangle how words like “outage” and “complaint” need to be carefully understood; explore how computer software systems being used behind the scenes impact data that is eventually shared with the public; and attempt to make sense of public data dashboards, comptroller reports, and federal monitor reports. Finally, we will talk about what questions can and can't be answered using NYCHA open data, and how understanding the context of where the data comes from is essential before performing any data analysis.

Environmental advocacy meets emerging technology: A bottom-up approach to environmental engagement projects

The air we breathe not only gives us life, but the quality of the air greatly impacts our quality of life - particularly in BIPOC, low-income communities that have been underrepresented in greening efforts. Our workshop will take a deep dive into how community-based organizations in NYC are already leveraging the power of open-source technology to learn about their air quality, and how they are taking steps to improve it. We will examine our air quality projects with the Bronx River Alliance and Why Not Care, and how it links community activism, non-profit advocacy, government funding, and no-code technology - all to address air pollution at a hyper-local scale.

Interview Prep Group for Data Professionals

The Interview Prep Group for Data Professionals has been an ongoing, weekly virtual meet up since September 2020. It's a space founded with the aim of bringing job hunters together, preparing for the arduous 'onsite' technical interview to have a place where they can practice answering interview questions live with others.

I have a background as a professional musician and educator, dedicating a chuck of my life to the study of pedagogy and performance excellence. I believe the technical interview is more like an audition, and notice a huge downfall to these experiences amongst data and tech professionals, namely, that experienced and knowledgeable candidates often fail technical interviews because they don't 'perform' well and aren't able to convey their knowledge and expertise on the spot.

In this meet up, we work on 3 interview style questions as seen in data science, data engineer, data analyst and business intelligence engineer interviews. Many of the attendees in the meet up can come up with a solution on their own at home, when there is no pressure of time or explaining their solutions out loud, but it is much more challenging when put to the test of speaking your solution. So this meet up provides a space to allow people to formulate their answers in plain English, explaining their algorithms out loud and voicing their thought process.

This gives attendees the opportunity to get feedback on their 'performance' as well as to refine their solution to these data problems. It also provides a space of community where attendees can meet other who are also going through the job hunt and share experiences.

I have written a 3-part blog series on my thoughts and background on the technical interview process if you would like to hear more about the motivation for this meet up, here: https://towardsdatascience.com/become-an-expert-at-the-technical-interview-part-i-2f3db6273982

The format of the meet up typically follows this schedule within 1.5 hours:
- 15 mins of intro: Introduces everyone, explain goals and aims of meet up
- 45 mins covering 3 questions:
- 15 mins per question
- I introduce the question and ask the group if they have clarifying questions (it's important to practice the art of asking clarifying questions to an interviewer)
- We then go into breakout rooms of 4-5 people where everyone has a chance to speak and share their thought process of tackling the question
- We then regroup as a large group and cover the solution to the question and I share resources and takeaways relevant to that question (tips on why the interviewer is asking the question and what they're looking for)
- 30 mins at the end for open discussion and questions

For open data week, I might suggest making this a 2 hour session given there will most likely be more people and I can spend some extra time explaining the motivation of the meet up and leaving space for questions and follow ups.

This meet up is mostly for people preparing for the aforementioned job types, however it's really open to anyone who enjoys problem solving with others and wants to improve their technical communication.

The job titles listed above typically cover a range of topics, so the questions I ask cover topics from the following list:
- Python & algorithms
- Business & product sense
- Modelling & machine learning
- Probability
- Statistics & Experiment Design
- SQL

Most questions are sourced from sites such as Interview Query, HackerRank, confeti.ai, aws machine learning practice exam papers, and more.

The founder of Interview Query, Jay Feng, may be joining me with this event but that is yet to be confirmed.

Closing the gap through gender equity

Pay gaps are in the spotlight and apparently getting worse. Where data is available, it tells us that women continue to lag behind men in what they earn — and these gaps widen along the lines of race. This is due to a combination of different forms of discrimination which in turn reinforce the structural disadvantages faced by women and girls both in the labour force and within society at large. We aim to discuss policy solutions for advancing in gender equity and closing gender pay gaps, by sharing what Buenos Aires City and Catalonia’s governments have been doing through data openness, as well as showcasing OGP as a promising platform for action. We want to discuss initial findings from these experiences as well as hear from participants and the community how gender pay gaps are currently being addressed using principles and practices of openness.
