The New York Restoration Project knows that the people of Amercia's largest city have to work hard to experience nature. As New York's only citywide conservancy, NYRP has renovated and restored green spaces across the city's five boroughs, ensuring a healthier environment for one of the country's most densely populated urban centers.

To do this work effectively, NYRP engages community members in urban planning conversations. But collecting and organizing community input is a challenge.

NYRP turned to Mapseed to launch a series of five data collection maps to better understand community needs.
