Forestry Inspections

Record of Forestry inspections for NYC Parks & Recreation. Inspections are initiated by a service request or internal process and may result in a work order.

Inspections are used to record field observations. ForMS 2.0 requires that Inspections can only be created from either a Tree Point or Planting Space based on the asset in question. Inspection types vary depending on the inspector’s workflow:
• level 1 (limited visual)
• level 2 (basic)
• level 3 (advanced)
• Re-inspection
• Sidewalk Rating (Trees and Sidewalks Inspections)
• General – Planting Space (Street Tree Planting Inspections)

This dataset can be joined to the Forestry Tree Points dataset by joining TreePointGlobalID from Forestry Inspections to GLOBALID from Forestry Tree Points.

Forestry Service Requests

Record of Forestry service requests for NYC Parks & Recreation.

Two-way integration with 311 is maintained in ForMS 2.0. Forestry related Service Requests (SRs) created by a 311 operator or submitted by the caller through either the 311 website, 311 phone app, or the Parks website stream into the system. Conversely, updates are sent from ForMS 2.0 to 311 when SRs are actioned.

Service Requests can be created directly in ForMS 2.0, however, it is important to note that they will NOT receive a 311 SEIBEL number or be visible in 311. Internally generated SRs should be used to track correspondence, commissioner, or other requests that do not originate from 311.

Forestry Tree Points

Record of Forestry tree points for NYC Parks & Recreation.

Tree Points and Planting Spaces form the basis of ForMS 2.0’s data inventory and are the core entities that all Service Requests, Inspections, and Work Orders are associated to. The system has built-in rules to ensure that every Tree Point has a Planting Space and each Planting Space can have no more than one active Tree Point at a given time. Locations that have had one tree removed and another tree replanted will appear in ForMS 2.0 as a single Planting Space associated with one retired Tree Point (that has a removal Work Order) and one active Tree Point.

This dataset can be joined to the Forestry Planting Spaces dataset by joining PlantingSpaceGlobalID from Forestry Tree Points to GLOBALID from Forestry Planting Spaces.

Forestry Work Orders

Record of Forestry work orders for NYC Parks & Recreation.

Work Orders are used to record activities performed by Parks staff, contractors, other Agencies, or private entities in the case of permitted work. ForMS 2.0 requires that WOs can only be created from an Inspection, with the exception of a Debris Removal – Misc. Wood WO where the associated tree cannot always be determined.

This dataset can be joined to the Forestry Planting Spaces dataset by joining PlantingSpaceGlobalID from Forestry Work Orders to GLOBALID from Forestry Planting Spaces.

DSNY Waste Characterization Study 2023 - Main Sort Results

The NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) conducted the 2023 Waste Characterization Study in the Fall of 2022 and Spring of 2023. The 2023 Study determined the waste composition of several major sources from which DSNY collects: residential households, New York City Public Schools, the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), and on-street litter baskets. Waste from these generators was categorized into 96 main material categories, which are provided in this dataset by residential strata and time period. Results are presented in absolute terms as the quantity by weight of each material type, per stream. The quantity of each material is calculated by applying the percent composition to the total quantity of specified DSNY collections.
