The City of Detroit Open Data Style Guide details standards that, when implemented, improve the public understandability and accessibility of the City's open data. The Style Guide is broken up into two sections. The dataset section outlines best practices for data formatting, quality, and accessibility. The metadata section provides guidance on creating rich and informative dataset descriptions, column-level descriptions, and more. Eventually, all items on the Open Data Portal will adhere to the Style Guide.

Collaborate, compile, and share open data for effective community-based decision making in Detroit. This site was created to address the issue of open data sharing among Detroit's civic tech, data, and mapping community. Numerous individuals and organizations are doing great work with data, but there isn't a place where all can come together to collaborate, share data, and foster transparency together. Read more from the Guidelines for Equitable Open Data Feel free to register, create an account, and upload any Detroit data that you have in CSV, XLS, ZIP, GeoJSON, etc. formats. Contact us if you'd like to add a new organization or become the administrator for an existing one. This site is maintained by a group of volunteers representing various civic tech and data groups in the City of Detroit. The project host is DETROITography. Data governance and decision-making are lead by a Community Advisory Board.

Welcome to the 2023 Annual Report for the City of Detroit’s Open Data Portal (ODP). In it you will find an overview of open data initiatives, goals, work performed in the past year, and plans/recommendations for the coming year. None of this work would be possible without the City’s Open Data Team, which is almost entirely funded through the Connect 313 Digital Inclusion Data Operation American Rescue Plan project.
The report is divided into thirteen sections, and we chose the story map format for ease of use in terms of navigation, incorporation of graphic design elements, and interaction with open datasets and tools. Users can quickly jump to any section using the tabs at the top of the page, and are encouraged to explore, and interact with, every element of the report.

Participant: Noah UrbanAffiliation: Data Driven DetroitParticipant Insights: "We submitted the Housing Information Portal, through which we provide information on up-to-date housing and property conditions in Detroit's neighborhoods. The tool allows users to access a ton of data and statistics about housing and property in their neighborhoods, and over half of the indicators on its profile pages (sample page here: https://hip.datadrivendetroit.org/custom-profiles/genesis-hope/) are sourced from the City's Open Data Portal. To me, this represents a fantastic example of the power of Open Data. After demonstrating the Portal, we had one CDO tell us that he was able to get more relevant information about his neighborhood from ten minutes of using this tool than he had been able to get from entire summers of having interns working on data collection.”

The Detroit Future City Strategic Framework is a land use planning document that was released in 2012. It outlines recommendations for transforming Detroit's land use policies and codes over the next fifty years, and covers a broad range of issues from economic and workforce development to transportation and green infrastructure. The shapes in this file represent the 50-year recommended land use for the City of Detroit, based on this plan. The geographies are based off of dissolved parcels from the City of Detroit Planning and Development Department.
Field description metadata is available for download. For detailed descriptions of the land use categories, and to learn more about the Detroit Future City initiative, please visit http://detroitfuturecity.com/framework/.
This inventory of Detroit pedestrian bridges and their condition assessments is derived from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and includes pedestrian bridges that span State of Michigan roadways only.Inspections of pedestrian bridges over State of Michigan routes are performed on a risk-based interval by MDOT, not to exceed 24 months. While not governed by the National Bridge Inspection Standards, these inspections are performed to maintain safety of the traveled way and to provide information needed for asset management. Routine Inspections of the entire structure may be supplemented by Special Inspections of Bridge Components that require more frequent monitoring. Condition ratings for pedestrian bridges are evaluated following the National Bridge Inventory Condition Ratings in a similar manner to vehicle bridges. These ratings are based on a 0-9 scale, where 0 is "Failed condition" and 9, "Excellent condition". Condition ratings are assigned for the deck, superstructure and substructure of each bridge or for each culvert. A culvert is a structure that allows passage under a roadway and has a short span (less than 20 feet).
