From the about page:
NYCpedia is a new data encyclopedia about New York City.
This is a beta preview, so bear with us as we work out the bugs, add tons more features and add new data.
NYCpedia is organized so you can search for information about a borough, neighborhood, or zip code. From there you can find insights about jobs, education, healthy living, real estate, transportation and more. We pull up-to-date information from open data sources and link it up so it’s easier to explore, but you can always check out the original source. We are constantly looking to add new data sources, so if you know of a great dataset that should be in NYCpedia, let us know.
Need data services for your NYC-based business, non-profit, or academic institution? Contact us to find out how you can link your organization’s data to NYCpedia.
Based on the PediaCities platform, whose about page says:
Ontodia created the PediaCities platform to curate, organize, and link data about cities. Check out our first PediaCities knowledgebase at NYCpedia.com for a demonstration of what clean linked data looks like. Ontodia was founded in 2012 by Joel Natividad and Sami Baig following their success at NYCBigApps 3.0, where they won the Grand Prize for NYCFacets. The PediaCities platform, with NYCpedia as the first PediaCity, is our attempt to add value on top of NYC’s incredible open data ecosystem.
I was disappointed until I got deep enough in the map.
Try: http://nyc.pediacities.com/Resource/CommunityStats/10006, which is the 10006 zip code.
It’s clean, easy to navigate, not all the data possible but targeted at the usual user.
I suspect a fairly homogeneous data set but I can’t say for sure.
Probably because it is in beta, there did not appear to be any non-English interfaces? Would suspect that is going to be an early added feature if it isn’t already on the development map.
BTW, if you are interested in data from New York City, try NYC Open Data with over 1100 data sets currently available.
