The City of Atlanta data visualization suite from ARC & Neighborhood Nexus includes 400 variables all mapped to City of Atlanta neighborhoods, neighborhood planning units (NPUs), and City Council districts’ boundaries. The data includes several City-specific variables such as code enforcement, 911 calls and the results of the recently-conducted windshield survey of housing conditions, as well as hundreds of Census variables like income, poverty, health insurance coverage and disability. When we say “neighborhoods”, we actually mean “Neighborhood Statistical Areas,” which in some cases combine some of Atlanta’s smaller neighborhoods into one.The tools we built include an interactive map, which allows for a deep-dive analysis of all 400 variables, and a dashboard, which is an easy-to-use tool that provides quick comparisons of every neighborhood, neighborhood planning unit, and City Council district to the city as a whole.Visit Neighborhood Nexus and City of Atlanta’s website.

This dataset represents the centerline of all streets, roads and highways in Fulton County. Each record represents a street segment between at-grade intersections. Attributes include street name elements, odd and even address ranges, feature type, zip code (left and right) and highway number.The municipalities of Chattahoochee Hills, College Park, East Point, Fairburn, Hapeville, Palmetto, South Fulton, Union City, as well as the Fulton Industrial District (FID) are actively maintained by the Fulton County GIS Division. The data for Johns Creek, Milton, Alpharetta, Sandy Springs, and Roswell are obtained from the respective cities data portal or REST endpoint and incorporated into this countywide data. For questions or issues concerning these cities, please contact the owner of the respective data directly.

The purpose of this dashboard is to empower community members, organizations, and other stakeholders through shared access to neighborhood-level data. The tool allows the user to view and interact with maps and reports showing data for the following Atlanta-specific geographies:City of AtlantaCity Council DistrictNeighborhood Planning Units (NPUs)Neighborhood Statistical Areas (NSAs)

The tool includes both an interactive map and report interface. The map interface enables the comparison between geographic areas within the city based on a drop-down selection of 300+ indicators across and array of categories. The report portion of the tool enables a closer look at a chosen geographic area (selected using the map) and can be tailored to the user’s specific topic of interest with pre-formatted report types, including but not limited to:

Therefore, any measure reported by ACS should not be taken as an exact number – this is why a corresponding margin of error (MOE) is also given for ACS measures. The size of the MOE relative to its corresponding estimate value provides an indication of confidence in the accuracy of each estimate. Each MOE is expressed in the same units as its corresponding measure; for example, if the estimate value is expressed as a number, then its MOE will also be a number; if the estimate value is expressed as a percent, then its MOE will also be a percent. The user should also note that for relatively small geographic areas, such as census tracts shown here, ACS only releases combined 5-year estimates, meaning these estimates represent rolling averages of survey results that were collected over a 5-year span (in this case 2015-2019). Therefore, these data do not represent any one specific point in time or even one specific year. For geographic areas with larger populations, 3-year and 1-year estimates are also available.

This layer was created by the Research & Analytics Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission to represent the rivers and streams in the state of Georgia. It contains linear hydrographic features, including rivers, streams, and artificial flow paths through water bodies. Data were captured from USGS 7.5 minute mylar separates containing the "blue-layer" from the U.S. Geological Survey's 1:24000-scale quadrangle maps. Individual quadrangles were combined and edgematched using Arc/Info GIS software, and then clipped into individual county tiles using boundary data from the Georgia Department of Transportation's 1:31360-scale County General Highway Maps.Attributes:FEATURE: Artificial Path Canal/Ditch Connector Stream/RiverFEATURE_TY: Aqueduct Area of Complex Channels Canal/Ditch Estuarine Intermittent Lake/Pond Perennial Reservoir Stream/River Swamp/Marsh UnspecifiedSTATE_FIPS = State of Georgia FIPS codeCOUNTY_FIP = County FIPS codeHUC = Hydrologic Unit CodeNAME = Name of the river or streamCLASS: Major MinorSource: USGS, Georgia DOT, Atlanta Regional CommissionDate: 1997For additional information, please visit the Atlanta Regional Commission at www.atlantaregional.com

This dataset represents the current zoning districts for the unincorporated parts of Fulton County, Georgia. Zoning is a device of land use planning commonly used by local governments. Through zoning, governments can define common permitted uses, building heights, setbacks and similar characteristics based on geographic zones or districts, thereby segregating land uses and building characteristics believed to incompatible.

This dataset represents the boundary of each parcel of land in Fulton County recorded for the pupose of aiding in the appraisal of real property and the determination of property tax. A parcel dataset is created each year in association with that year's tax digest. The parcel dataset for any given year is not considered final until the completion of the digest, which generally occurs around mid-year. Until the completion of the digest, the parcel dataset is considered to be a work in progress. Any necessary corrections and omissions may continue to be made even after the completion of the digest. The parcel dataset in its published form incorporates information from the CAMA (computer-aided mass appraisal) database. The CAMA information included with the published dataset is selected based on its value to the typical consumer of the data and includes the parcel identification number, the property address, property owner, owner's mailing address, tax district, assessed and appraised value for land and improvements, the number of livable units, acreage, property class and land use class.

This layer was developed by ARC Research & Analytics to show incorporated areas in Georgia with layer views of the core Atlanta Region, ARC Modeling area and the MNGWPD.

This layer shows the location of grocery stores with 25 and more employees in 13-County area in Georgia. The 13 county includes Butts, Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding, and Rockdale County.

This dataset represents the incorporated limits of the 16 cities in Fulton county, Georgia. In the four cases where the city extends into a neighboring county--Atlanta, College Park, Mountain Park, and Palmetto--only the portions of the city that lies within the county are included. The dataset is updated following the approval of an annexation of unincorporated land by one of the cities.

This layer was developed by the Research & Analytics Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission and contains railway features including railroads, rail yards, and public transit rail lines. Features were originally captured from the Georgia Department of Transportation's General Highway Base Map. They have been updated and photo-revised using 1993 digital orthophoto quarter quadrangles (DOQQs) at 1:12,000-scale.

This layer was developed by the Community Development Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission for use as an inventory of parks and protected greenspace in the 20-county Atlanta Region. An initial inventory for an 11-county area (RDC area and Forsyth County) was initially done by Georgia Tech (Center for GIS). Data developed and maintained by other agencies have also been utilized to develop the inventory including Georgia DNR and local GIS inventories of parks. All local governments in the 20-county area were sent the inventory for their area for review and comment beginning in March 2006. Many local governments reviewed the inventory and made primarily minor corrections. A major update took place in 2015 - 2016.
