Map This!

Challenges Entered: 
HealthyCity.org currently offers users access to over 120 demographic and community characteric variables, from 9 different data sources. Our data and sources are described in detail at: http://www.healthycity.org/c/help/sc/indicator. For the proposed national service, some of the California-specific data sources may not be available nationally (such as data from the California Health Interview Survey or from the WIC program), but their functions may be replaced by other data sets. There are a number of health and economic data that state and federal offices use that are only available at the county level (so they cannot be displayed on our current site); offering a national view will make comparisons and disparities between counties and states accessible to users. Users will be able to:- Upload their own data sets- Overlay data points on top of demographic and other data- Map and analyze data within a radius around an address, or within a ZIP code, city, legislative districts or other jurisdictions- View core demographic and other data for the selected geography in tables and charts- View assets, such as schools, parks, fire and police stations, on an interactive map, with types of service (identified by icons)- Identify information about assets or service providers by scrolling over their icons- Cut and analyze data by over 60 demographic, health and other indicators

Anti-Genocide Action Tracker: Genocide Scores for Every Legislator and State

Challenges Entered: 
GenocideScores.org would provide four main assets to the anti-genocide community: Aggregate anti-genocide data. Not only records on Darfur legislation, but on any anti-genocide bills relating to our areas of concern, or recognition of historical genocides such as in Armenia. Each state would also display its status on divestment and genocide education. Subsequent campaigns could also be added.Clear illustrations of legislative status. Instead of simply being an entry on a scorecard, each bill would have its own graphical timeline, and members would be able to track progress of a bill through e-mail alerts or RSS feeds.Most importantly, cross-indexing, allowing specific alerts to be generated for members based on location. When a bill is coming up for a vote in Congress and a senator from Connecticut is the key vote, Connecticut members automatically receive an alert. When a divestment or genocide education rally is planned at the Nevada statehouse, all Nevadans on the site know about it. This information — where geographical power lies in each case — is viewable on the bill's timeline, so members can notify their friends in CT or NV of the need to take action.Finally, embeddable badges to allow people to display the current genocide score of their state and district.
