Research and Data Assistance Request (RADAR)

Welcome to the RADAR Gallery!
For the last few years, we’ve been working with the Manhattan Borough President and NYC’s Community Boards to address their data and analytical needs. Our Civic Innovation Fellows are trained to address difficult & complex data needs. On this page, you’ll find some examples of the various RADAR projects they worked on.
