Talk to the analysts from NYC Health behind the New York City Community Air Survey (NYCCAS): 12 years of neighborhood scale street-level air quality data. There may be no better data available to look at spatial variability of air pollution across NYC. Find out about the data collection, how we analyze it, what it can be used for, what are some pitfalls to avoid when using it, what data products are available and where you can find them. We also want to hear about the air quality data that you are collecting and can offer insights into how to visualize that data, what additional data can be useful in providing a more complete picture and how to think about who your audience is/should be.
