The new OASIS website is a work in progress. Here are some features we plan to add in 2010:
•New data: the NYC Soil & Water Conservation District has provided us with a groundbreaking (no pun intended) data set of soil types across the city -- we'll be adding all this and more to OASIS soon.
•Historical land use patterns: we'll be mapping the parcel-by-parcel land use data going back to the late 1990s. You'll be able to transition between years to see how development patterns have changed locally and citywide.
•Street tree data from Parks Dept's 2005 Census: we're working with Parks to aggregate their 2005 Census data by block group, so you can map key patterns citywide. We also hope to add the same type of data from the 1995 Tree Census so you can see change over time.
•Flickr and more: we'll be adding Flickr feeds, more map data via web services, and other social networking features (such as user reviews and updates).
•More map data: more detailed information in New Jersey, regional Census demographics, and more.
•Your suggestions: let us know what you think and we'll consider adding it. See the OASIS data guidelines for ideas.
