SF Tree Maintenance Requests by Neighborhood District
Homework 3 Visualization by Kaishvi Parikh About Me » Highlight/brush over the circles to learn more about each tree maintenance request made.
Scroll over the map to zoom in, or zoom into a specific district by clicking on the hovered green area.
About the Data
The data used for this visualization comes from the City of San Francisco's
Tree Maintenance Data from 2016.
This covers all the requests made for tree maintenance around the city of SF, including landscaping, overgrowth, damage, etc. This is
narrowed down further and broken down by Neighborhood Districts.
Interpretations
This visualization shows us which districts are densely populated with tree maintenance requests. We can see that there is a clear cluster type of requests made, including many vandalized trees, as noted in red by the legend. The legend also
includes a clear encoding of colors for vandalized trees, fallen trees, and all other requests made. I chose to focus on these because it seemed like these two were the most problematic or "dangerous" of the rest.If you click on the specific neighborhoods, you can see that
the most requests were made in the Mission, Civic Center, Cathedral Hill, and Dolores Heights neighborhoods. To make it easier to locate a place to click, you can scroll/pan the zoom to focus on a particular area.
