NYC Community Boards Map

Why

This is NYC's official "Find your community board" page. To look up your community board you have to figure out how to use their web GIS portal. Why don't we simplify that a little bit? This project is a minimum-viable product inspired by Washington, D.C.'s ANC Finder.

These are some alternatives:

Data sources

Converting district boundaries to topojson

The source GeoJSON is converted to a TopoJSON to save on space and to resolve topology issues from third-party simplified GeoJSON files. To download the latest boundary file and convert it to a TopoJSON, run in shell:

./data.sh

Deploy

To GitHub Pages (default). https://louh.github.io/nyc-community-boards/

npm run deploy

Build pipeline and tests will run before deployment.
