NOTE: The data in this dataset has not updated since 2021 because of a broken data feed. Also, some of the points in this GeoJSON file appear to be out of order (for instance, see Schenley Park). We're working to fix this feed. This parks dataset, also published by the City, has been updated more recently: https://data.wprdc.org/dataset/parks1

This table contains data on access to parks measured as the percent of population within ½ a mile of a parks, beach, open space or coastline for California, its regions, counties, county subdivisions, cities, towns, and census tracts. More information on the data table and a data dictionary can be found in the Data and Resources section. As communities become increasingly more urban, parks and the protection of green and open spaces within cities increase in importance. Parks and natural areas buffer pollutants and contribute to the quality of life by providing communities with social and psychological benefits such as leisure, play, sports, and contact with nature. Parks are critical to human health by providing spaces for health and wellness activities. The access to parks table is part of a series of indicators in the Healthy Communities Data and Indicators Project (HCI) of the Office of Health Equity. The goal of HCI is to enhance public health by providing data, a standardized set of statistical measures, and tools that a broad array of sectors can use for planning healthy communities and evaluating the impact of plans, projects, policy, and environmental changes on community health. The creation of healthy social, economic, and physical environments that promote healthy behaviors and healthy outcomes requires coordination and collaboration across multiple sectors, including transportation, housing, education, agriculture and others. Statistical metrics, or indicators, are needed to help local, regional, and state public health and partner agencies assess community environments and plan for healthy communities that optimize public health. The format of the access to parks table is based on the standardized data format for all HCI indicators. As a result, this data table contains certain variables used in the HCI project (e.g., indicator ID, and indicator definition). Some of these variables may contain the same value for all observations.

In order to appropriately manage City parks and allocate resources, NYC Parks has implemented three tiers of management [below the Borough level]. These three tiers can be represented as administrative geographic boundaries and are defined below: District - One or more parks that are combined and generally align with New York City Community Boards. Sector - One or more Park Districts that are combined in order share resources for daily maintenance. Region - One or more Park Sectors that are combined and assigned a regional managers who provides high-level, strategic planning and support for Parks managers, including maximizing resources between Districts and Sectors.

• Get the latest version at Regional Conservation (Parks and Open Space) | SACOG Open Data Portal *June 1, 2023The Regional Parks and Open Space layer represents protected land in the six-county SACOG region. This includes properties protected for preservation of natural or historic features and recreational lands. These may be under the management of government entities, non-governmental organizations, or private entities. Data ranges from street landscaping buffer to small urban parks to large national parks and forests. Every attempt has been made to align features to county assessor parcel boundaries, though in some instances the preserved area is not all of the parcel that contains it. Some of the data originated with the California Protected Areas Database (CPAD), but more features have been added based on city, county, and special district information for parks and recreational spaces, land trust acquisitions, and data from state and national government agencies.Features are described by access level (public, limited, restricted, none, etc) to the best of our ability to determine it, primary use (PRIM_USE) and secondary use (Type), manager, name and label. Note that the private or public owner of the preserved land is not listed, but rather only the entity managing it. In most cases, these are the same. Some - the American River Parkway, for example - are managed more locally, though the owner may be a state or federal agency. Additional fields include booleans for park (developed/maintained) or open space (undeveloped/wild), descriptors of the managing agency, city in which it is located, and acreage. New in this update are planned parks and greenbelts. These are only included from areas where the information could be found in parcel layers or in planning documents. These are most easily located (or excluded, if that is the goal) by searching in the ACCESS_TYP/ACCESS field for "Future Access".Every attempt has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information in this dataset. If you find discrepancies, please contact SACOG's Data and Mapping Services Team.

Since PARD's eCOMBS measure #3033 - Number of City Park Acres per 1,000 Population is one of the items the department is asked about the most, the Planning and Development Division decided to post a story page and the fiscal year actuals.

This is a polygon dataset representing City of Boise Parks and Recreation data, based on the National Parks and Recreation Association (NRPA) GIS Data Model. A park is generally an area of land in a largely natural state, sometimes with grass, trees, paths, sports fields, playgrounds, picnic areas and other facilities, that is set aside and managed specifically for recreation use and enjoyment by the public. The features included in this polygon feature class are: parks and reserves.

This data set was created from a combination of Boise Parks and Recreation park and facility files and the Ada County Parcel records. This dataset was created by POWER Engineer's, Inc. and will be maintained by the City of Boise. This data set is updated at the request of Boise Parks and Recreation staff, as changes to the park data occur. It is current to the date it was published.

For more information about Boise parks and reserves, please visit City of Boise Parks & Recreation.

This dataset includes a list of public open spaces, primarily under the jurisdiction of and/or managed by NYC Parks, as well as the percentage of active and passive recreation in each space. It also includes Schoolyard to Playground (SYPG) sites under the jurisdiction of the NYC Department of Education (DOE), and sites managed in partnership with NYC Parks, such as Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and Battery Park City, among others. Active open space refers to areas used for sports, exercise, or active play, including but not limited to, playgrounds, sports fields, and fitness equipment. Passive open space refers to areas for relaxation, such as sitting, strolling, or picnicking. These areas may include plazas, beaches, walking paths, as well as features that contribute to the overall use of public open spaces, such as bathroom and maintenance structures, parking lots, and cultural institutions. While these latter features are not defined as 'passive' in the 2021 CEQR Open Space chapter, they will be included in the forthcoming updated version of the chapter. This dataset is intended for use in completing an Open Space analysis as part of the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) process only. Please fully read the Data Dictionary linked below before using this dataset to complete a CEQR Open Space analysis. Additional research may be necessary to identify other open space resources within a given study area, including those managed by federal, state, and city agencies, as well as private entities.

A subset of the Mobile Home Parks: Last Inspection dataset, only showing locations with less than 51 sites.

This dataset includes the name and location of active mobile home parks operating in New York State. Active mobile home parks include only parks that were categorized as active (i.e., operating with accommodations for the placement of five or more mobile or manufactured homes) on the date the data was downloaded from a Department of Health database. This data also includes the date of the last inspection and violations of Part 17 of the New York State Code of Rules and Regulations that were identified during that inspection. Additionally, the data includes the park owner-operator, the number of sites within the park, the type of on-site water source and sewage disposal system serving the mobile home park, and whether a pool or beach is operated as part of the mobile home park. The location of the mobile home park includes its street address, city, state, zip code, municipality, and county.

This dataset is designed to represent and identify the general locations of city and state maintained parks within Lexington-Fayette County. One private park, Triangle Park, is included in the dataset due to its integration into downtown Lexington. The dataset is programmatically created and updated by converting the polygon centroids of the LFUCG Park boundary polygon layer to a point layer . The park property inventory is maintained by the LFUCG Division of Parks and changes are conveyed to the GIS Office for inclusion. This dataset participates in a topology with the parcel dataset to assure coincident geometry during parcel editing.As part of the basemap data layers, the park point map layer is an integral part of the Lexington Fayette-Urban County Government Geographic Information System. Basemap data layers are accessed by personnel in most LFUCG divisions for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production. More advanced user applications may focus on thematic mapping, summarization of data by geography, or planning purposes (including defining boundaries, managing assets and facilities, integrating attribute databases with geographic features, spatial analysis, and presentation output).

Description -There polygons represent known public and private parklands throughout the city of Baltimore. Attribute information includes details about park location, acreage, ownership,    managing entity, and park category. Parks are categorized as:Citywide parks: Parks that serve residents across the entire city and host a variety of permitted and non-permitted recreational activities or facilities. They tend to be the larger parks in the city ranging from ten acres to over 990 acres in size. While this represents a wide range in size, several of the smaller parks are part of a larger contiguous park network.Neighborhood parks: These parks serve as basic units of the park system for users within a quarter to half-mile distance. They range between 1 and 28 acres in size and typically offer two or more amenities such as a playground, basketball court, athletic field, and green spaces. Many of the Neighborhood parks are informal in design, are clearly visible and located along well trafficked streets.Mini parks: Small parks that may include one or two amenities such as a pavilion, seating area, playground, or basketball court. Many of the Mini Parks are sited off the beaten path, some are located behind houses or bordered by less trafficked streets. These parks are typically less than 3 acres in size.Green spaces: Open lawn spaces without amenities and of varied size. These spaces serve as flexible spaces for active or passive use. Some include community gardens.Special use: Stand-alone park spaces that have a specific use or role associated with them.Forested spaces: Wooded or forested areas that may or may not be accessible to the public.Civic spaces: Spaces that are significant to the City’s history, host monuments or contain paved plazas that are used for citywide events and gatherings related to recreation and parks or other non BCRP related activities.Data updates on a rolling basis as new parks are constructed or old parks decommissioned.

Larger NYC parks (generally >20 acres) are subdivided into smaller sections that make inspecting these parks feasible and efficient. These sections are called "zones." The size and boundaries usually conform to one or more of the following criteria: Zones should be inspectable in 1-2 hours; zone boundaries should follow the park’s features (paths, tree lines, etc) whenever possible; and/or conform to pre-existing boundaries used to divide the park for maintenance; and/or define a cohesive area within the park (ballfields, wooded areas, etc). Besides zones, this layer contains a handful of Sitting Areas that are part of larger parks but could not be defined as zones due to their smaller size.
