This dataset is a monthly upload of the Community Registry (www.AustinTexas.gov/CR), where community organizations such as neighborhood associations may register with the City of Austin to receive notices of land development permit applications within 500 feet of the organization's specified boundaries. This dataset can be used to contact multiple registered organizations at once by filtering/sorting, for example, by Association Type or by Association ZipCode. The organizations' boundaries can be viewed in the City's interactive map at www.AustinTexas.gov/GIS/PropertyProfile/ - the Community Registry layer is under the Boundaries/Grids folder.

The 2014 Austin Digital Assessment Project was supported by the Telecommunications & Regulatory Affairs Office of the City of Austin, the Telecommunications and Information Policy Institute at the University of Texas, and faculty and graduate students from the Department of Radio, Television, and Film and the University of Texas.

This dataset includes the individual survey responses. To see aggregated dataset weighted to reflect Austin demographics, refer to the attached document.

The City of Austin’s Community Tree Priority Map (formerly Planting Prioritization) serves as a decision support tool to determine where to focus forestry activities in Austin, Texas. This map shows U.S. Census tracts (2010) containing tabular data related to community forestry priorities determined by the Community Tree Preservation Division’s Urban Forest Program. Prioritization is determined through the priority score. This score combines nine measures normalized and summarized into four broad categories. The score is aggregated at the neighborhood (U.S. Census tract) level. Scores can range from 0 to 100 with higher scores meaning a higher need for community forestry activities to achieve more equitable canopy distribution. Finally, the priority level provides a categorical representation of the data for a simplified view.

Priority Score = ( Σ Natural Environment + Σ Social Vulnerability + Σ Community Investment + Σ Health & Well-Being ) / 4

This map was updated in 2020. Minor updates are made as-needed with a review and data update scheduled for 2025 (every 5 years).

Ultimately, this map is used to aggregate Urban Forest Grant/Portal projects and tree planting/distribution data to assess program performance.
