Allegheny County Assets

Description

This dataset contains lists of various kinds of assets (open prior to or as of March 1, 2020), derived from a variety of local, state, and federal data sources. Some of this data still needs to be verified, as this is a work in progress. Some geocoding is either missing or incorrect. Improvements are pending. This data was assembled to support 2020 Census outreach efforts, and can also be used to support COVID-19 response efforts. A [companion map](https://assets.wprdc.org/) displaying this data has also been created to support Census outreach. It too is a work in progress, and we'll be adding new features in the coming weeks. Types of assets reflected in the data include (Note - we'll add additional source info. in coming days): Allegheny County Housing Authority community sites, Allegheny County Health Department clinics, affordable housing properties, apartment buildings, banks, barbershops, bars, bus stops, child care centers, coffee shops, community nonprofit organizations, dentists, doctor's offices, faith-based facilities, family support centers, farmers' markets, food banks, gas stations, hair salons, health centers, homeless shelters, laundromats, libraries, museums, nail salons, nursing homes, park and rides, parks and facilities, pharmacies, polling places, post offices, public buildings, recreation centers, restaurants, schools, senior centers, supermarkets, universities, VA facilities, veterans social orgs, WIC offices, and WIC vendors.

8 This is a list of Allegheny County supermarkets open prior to or as of March 1, 2020, derived from the Geocoded Food Facilities resource (https://data.wprdc.org/dataset/allegheny-county-restaurant-food-facility-inspection-violations/resource/112a3821-334d-4f3f-ab40-4de1220b1a0a) published by Allegheny County, filtered down to just supermarkets that are not closed. (All of these records are in the new Assets resource.) This data still needs to be verified. Some geocoding is either missing or incorrect. Improvements are pending. A subset of the fields in this table are defined in this data dictionary: https://github.com/WPRDC/asset-hound/blob/master/data-dictionary-assets.csv https://data.wprdc.org/dataset/cd2b3e27-ca31-43e0-a8c6-2e6c43b4050a/resource/6f18890b-b8f7-4bc8-8086-f5401b6e086c/download/geocodedfoodfacilities-filtered-supermarkets-v2.csv
8 A list of data sources for each asset type. As some assets draw from multiple data sources the "concat_data_source_name" and "concat_data_source_url" fields are pipe-delimited lists of all the relevant source parameters. Assets that do not yet have documented sources (we're still working on a few) may have a pipe symbol ("|") at the beginning or end of the list. https://data.wprdc.org/dataset/cd2b3e27-ca31-43e0-a8c6-2e6c43b4050a/resource/279da54f-a520-4bb4-afd0-ffbb7e797faf/download/data_sources_by_asset_type.csv
8 This is a list of various kinds of assets (open prior to or as of March 1, 2020), derived from a variety of local, state, and federal data sources. Some of this data still needs to be verified, as this is a work in progress. Some geocoding is either missing or incorrect. Also, some asset types have multiple records representing the same asset (since we are pulling from multiple sources and have not dealt with collisions/duplicates). Improvements are pending.
