The data includes fields for the date and time a report was submitted, what the problem was, the location of the problem, and the date when the user was notified that the City addressed the problem. This data does not include details about any work performed to fix a problem or the date and time work was completed. Reports that are referred outside of the Get It Done system have a status of “Referred”. Please note that this data includes every user-submitted report and should not be considered an official record of City maintenance work. For example, users might submit problems that have already been reported, that are the responsibility of another government agency or private business, that cannot be found or verified, or that are already scheduled to be fixed in a long-term maintenance plan.

Note: This dataset is no longer being updated due to the end of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency.
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is identifying vaccination status of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths by analyzing the state immunization registry and registry of confirmed COVID-19 cases. Post-vaccination cases are individuals who have a positive SARS-Cov-2 molecular test (e.g. PCR) at least 14 days after they have completed their primary vaccination series.
Tracking cases of COVID-19 that occur after vaccination is important for monitoring the impact of immunization campaigns. While COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective, some cases are still expected in persons who have been vaccinated, as no vaccine is 100% effective. For more information, please see https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/Post-Vaccine-COVID19-Cases.aspx
Post-vaccination infection data is updated monthly and includes data on cases, hospitalizations, and deaths among the unvaccinated and the vaccinated. Partially vaccinated individuals are excluded. To account for reporting and processing delays, there is at least a one-month lag in provided data (for example data published on 9/9/22 will include data through 7/31/22).
Notes:
On September 9, 2022, the post-vaccination data has been changed to compare unvaccinated with those with at least a primary series completed for persons age 5+. These data will be updated monthly (first Thursday of the month) and include at least a one month lag.
On February 2, 2022, the post-vaccination data has been changed to distinguish between vaccination with a primary series only versus vaccinated and boosted. The previous dataset has been uploaded as an archived table. Additionally, the lag on this data has been extended to 14 days.
On November 29, 2021, the denominator for calculating vaccine coverage has been changed from age 16+ to age 12+ to reflect new vaccine eligibility criteria. The previous dataset based on age 16+ denominators has been uploaded as an archived table.

Public Act 21-159 established a state goal of universal access to 1000 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload across the State of Connecticut. This map shows progress to that goal. At the town level, the map includes both availability and adoption data for 1000/100 packages while the block level shows only availability.This map uses OPM collected availability and adoption data As of 2023, OPM collected availability data was submitted by internet service providers pursuant to PA 21-159 and processed by the GIS Office in the Office of Policy and Management, cleaned, and matched to the CostQuest location fabric.Metadata:All feature layers, maps, and datasets including OPM's internal broadband availability data follows the same basic schema with additional fields added in some case for convenience.Fields named no service, unserved, underserved, served, and GigC are counts of locations where a particular level of broadband service is provided, No service locations are those where there is no reported service at all. Unserved locations are locations where there is a provider offering wireline service, but not at or above 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. Underserved locations are locations where at least one provider offers wireline service of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload, but there is no provider offering wireline service of 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. Served locations are locations where there is wireline service of at least 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. GigC denotes the count of locations that have service at 1000 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload. Accordingly, total locations is equal to the sum of no service, unserved, underserved, served, and "GigC" locations. Availability also includes fields for average download and upload speeds. These are calculated at the relevant level of census geography based on the maximum for all locations.The final field included in all availability data is the provider list.

The Virginia Office of Broadband (Va OoB) has posted a file on the Virginia Open Data Portal that identifies locations that BEAD applicants may consider including in their applications for de-obligation.
This file was updated on June 17th for the Benefit of the Bargain Round. This update includes adding 962 locations to this list which were removed from the National Broadband Serviceable Location Fabric between Version 5 and Version 6.
The list includes both those locations identified by the Va OoB as served in Version 5 of the National Broadband Map and not likely to require special construction costs, as well as those locations received and preliminarily reviewed/approved by the Va OoB based on submissions from stakeholders.
The Va OoB encourages all BEAD applicants to review this list and, upon consideration, verification, and any additions, upload the list as a de-obligation file in the CAMS portal for their BEAD application. If BEAD applicants are proposing to submit additional locations for de-obligation, applicants must submit the required evidence for these locations. If the provisionally awarded subgrantee has utilized this de-obligation file in their submission, the Va OoB will utilize the evidence submitted by stakeholders under the previously conducted process to document these de-obligations when submitted to NTIA in Virginia’s BEAD Final Proposal. BEAD applicants do not need to upload evidence for de-obligations for locations already in this file when they submit their applications in CAMS.
This is a MD iMAP hosted service layer. Find more information at http://imap.maryland.gov. This layer contains the average upload speed (mbps) per census block.

This data set contains Help to Buy: Equity Loan statistics at post code sector level.
The figures cover the launch of the scheme on 1 April 2013 until 31 October 2014.
Information on the allocation of completed sales to postcode sectors is derived using the latest available information on the full postcode for each scheme. Figures have been attributed to an individual postcode sector by reconciling data against the ONS Postcode Directory (May 2014) where possible. Figures may be subject to revision later in the year.
For sales before 31 March 2014, properties are included under the local authority district to which they were initially allocated. In some cases, this differs from latest information, which forms the basis of the first column of local authority district figures. Figures for some local authorities may be subject to revisions later in the year. Although local authority information is validated against other geographic data at the time of data entry, detailed reconciliation of the data, conducted twice a year, may result in a small number of changes to these monthly releases, for example where a new development crosses a local authority boundary.
An equity loan is Government financial assistance given to eligible applicants to purchase an eligible home through a Government equity mortgage secured on the home. The Government equity mortgage is ranked second in priority behind an owner’s main mortgage lender.
This scheme offers up to 20 per cent of the value as Government assistance to purchasers buying a new build home. The buyer must provide a cash deposit of at least 5 per cent and a main mortgage lender must provide a loan of at least 75 per cent.
The Government assistance to buy is made through an equity loan made by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) to the purchaser.
Help to Buy equity loans are only available on new build homes and the maximum purchase price is £600,000. Equity loan assistance for purchasers is paid via house builders registered with the HCA to participate in the Help to Buy equity loan initiative. The payment is made to builders (via solicitors) at purchaser legal completion.
The equity loan is provided without fees for the first five years of ownership.
The property title is held by the home owner who can therefore sell their home at any time and upon sale should provide the government the value of the same equity share of the property when it is sold.
For further information see
Help to Buy (equity loan) scheme monthly statistics.

openAFRICA aims to be the largest independent repository of open data on the African continent. openAFRICA is not a government portal. Instead, it’s a grassroots initiative, maintained by Code for Africa, as a public service. The platform is available as a free resource for ordinary citizens, civil society organisations, civic activists, the media, and government agencies. You can upload your data to openAFRICA either to store it, or to make it available to a wider public. You can also download data already on openAFRICA for re-use in your own projects. We are happy to help you both upload and re-use data. Much of the data on openAFRICA has been liberated by pioneering organisations, volunteers or activists, and is an eclectic collection that is far from comprehensive. You will, however, find datasets here that are difficult to access elsewhere. If there is crucial data that you can't find here or elsewhere, get in touch and we might be able to help you extricate it. All the data on openAFRICA is intended to be actionable. The data is meant to help you change the world. We want you to analyse it, visualise it, share it, and build tools or services with it. openAFRICA is maintained by Code for Africa, with additional support from Amazon Web Services (AWS) and the World Bank. Individual datasets or data collections on openAFRICA may receive support from additional partners. While openAFRICA runs as a free public service, it costs real money and time to maintain. Code for Africa is therefore always keen to hear from potential partners who are interested in helping support the initiative. Give us a shout here to chat about the possibilities. We use ProPublica's Data Style Guide. This style guide comprises the typographic and technical best practices used by ProPublica's News Applications desk. Many rules on it apply to their stories as well as their online graphics and news applications. Read it here: https://github.com/propublica/guides/blob/master/news-apps.md
The NCHS National Post-acute and Long-term Care Study (NPALS) collects data on post-acute and long-term care providers every two years. The goal is to monitor post-acute and long-term care settings with reliable, accurate, relevant, and timely statistical information to support and inform policy, research, and practice. These data tables provide an overview of the geographic, organizational, staffing, service provision, and user characteristics of paid, regulated long-term and post-acute care providers in the United States. The settings include adult day services centers, home health agencies, hospices, inpatient rehabilitation facilities, long-term care hospitals, and nursing homes.

This feature layer provides all OPM collected data at the tract level.------The Connecticut Broadband Availability and Adoption Maps were created to help citizens and policymakers understand the strengths and weaknesses of broadband infrastructure in the state. Data is aggregated to the block, tract, and town (county subdivision) levels and includes counts of locations classified as unserved, underserved, and served as well as whether they meet the state goal of 1000Mbps/100Mbps. This application splits its visualizations into block, tract, and town layers for both unserved locations and progress to the state goal.
This map uses OPM collected availability and adoption data.
As of 2023, OPM collected availability data was submitted by internet service providers pursuant to PA 21-159 and processed by the GIS Office in the Office of Policy and Management, cleaned, and matched to the CostQuest location fabric.
Metadata:
All feature layers, maps, and datasets including OPM's internal broadband availability data follows the same basic schema with additional fields added in some case for convenience.
Fields named no service, unserved, underserved, served, and GigC are counts of locations where a particular level of broadband service is provided, No service locations are those where there is no reported service at all. Unserved locations are locations where there is a provider offering wireline service, but not at or above 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. Underserved locations are locations where at least one provider offers wireline service of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload, but there is no provider offering wireline service of 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. Served locations are locations where there is wireline service of at least 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. GigC denotes the count of locations that have service at 1000 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload. Accordingly, total locations is equal to the sum of no service, unserved, underserved, served, and "GigC" locations. Availability also includes fields for average download and upload speeds. These are calculated at the relevant level of census geography based on the maximum for all locations.
The final field included in all availability data is the provider list.
OPM collected adoption data:
OPM collected adoption data uses many of the same naming conventions as the availability data, but there are some notable differences.
Fields named unserved_Sub, underserved_Sub, served_Sub, and GigC _Sub are counts of subscriptions where a particular level of broadband service is currently subscribed to, Unserved subscriptions are subscriptions that do not meet the standard of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. Underserved subscriptions are subscriptions with speeds of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload, but not meeting 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. Served subscriptions are subscriptions where speeds are between 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload and 1000 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload. GigC denotes the count of locations that have a subscription at 1000 Mbps download and 100 Mbps upload or higher. For subscription data these locations are NOT included in the "served" field as this does not directly apply to FCC use of the terms.
