We've just released the latest version of the NYC Geodatabase, a resource designed for mapping and analyzing NYC city-level features and data in GIS. We're continuing to offer two formats that have identical content - a Spatialite version for QGIS and Spatialite users, and an MS Access personal geodatabase for ArcGIS users (although the Spatialite version can also be used in ArcGIS from version 10.2 forward).

Here are the latest updates in the new version (Jan 2016):

  • All of the American Community Survey data tables for PUMAs, ZCTAs, and census tracts have been updated with new data from the 5-year 2010-2014 ACS (the previous version of the database had tables from 2009-2013).

  • We made a minor update to the subway stations layer, to include the new station on the 7 line at 34th St - 11 Av (Hudson Yards). We did not update the related subway complexes layer, as ridership data for 2015 (which would include this new station) isn't available yet. Those updates will come with the next version this summer.

All metadata and documentation is up to date. If you still need data from the previous version (Aug 2015) it's been moved to the NYC Geodatabase Archive section.
