Editor's Notes
- HealthyCity.org increases access to local resources, and supports data-driven decision making and planning by public officials, foundations and community organizations.
- DATA & TECHNOLOGY HealthyCity.org allows users to search for local services, conduct research and connect with their communities. Beyond providing free access to the largest database of community services and localized data variables, HealthyCity.org offers the ability for users to “tell their own story” by uploading their own data or multimedia to the system.More about www.HealthyCity.org:Locate Resources: Focusing on one of our key goals to help families find resources through intermediaries such as case managers, social workers, etc., we display LA County 2-1-1 social service resources. We are partnering with 2-1-1 agencies in other regions of California in order to display that data and increase accessibility to resources.Conduct Analysis: HealthyCity.org has the capacity to map community characteristics (over 2300 variables) such as demographic, health, economic, park/green space, etc. You can create community profiles and find gaps in services in relation to need. With the statewide expansion, Healthy City has expanded crime and public safety data, as well as new statewide health data, child welfare and public assistance data. Web 2.0 Features: Users can upload their own points of interest, create their own neighborhood boundaries, and save maps! For the statewide platform, Healthy City users will be able to create online affinity groups and share maps, charts, videos, pictures, and comments with partners across California.
- HC.org provides these people with data and technology to support their work within and on behalf of our communities. HC.org helps encourage data-driven planning and inform policy within sectors such as Education, Public Safety, Health, Public Health, Government, etc.
- The next two slides show two major ‘types’ of data – point & thematic.
- Point data –What we call “point data” is information that we have for particular locations or resources. This is a map of food banks & food pantries in San Francisco. We have detailed service information for social service resources such as this, as well as schools and hospitals. Later we’ll be creating asset maps, so we’ll be drawing from this point data.
- Thematic data – This is a map showing where there is a concentration of families in poverty in California. Thematic maps display intensity of information (such as demographic, health, or socioeconomic characteristics) about a region by drawing from the many data sources we house.
- Viewing point and thematic data together enables you to get an initial picture of the distribution of resources, while understanding a particular characteristic about an area. For example, are there educational resources in areas with low educational attainment? Is there access to fresh food in areas with a high concentration of people with diabetes?
- Fresno Food and shelterZIP code 93710
- By mapping thematic data, you are able to see a certain characteristic about your neighborhood (any geography). You can look at areas that have a high concentration of people in poverty, then look at the resources available to this population. You may be able to identify gaps in services, or begin to look at the allocation of resources.
- The darker areas show a higher concentration of families in poverty
- *Just a note: clicking on the tabs (Maps, Data)will give you a clean slate in that room. You can use the “see on chart” or “see on map” links to view the data in the other format. (E.g. if you want to view the data you’ve mapped in a chart and table, just click on the See on Chart link).
- Using the Customize tab, you can alter the data level, year, number of classes, ranges, etc.Remember, you can print, save, and email your map.
- In order to upload an Excel file on HealthyCity.org, you will need to *Save it as Excel 97-2003 workbook*
