Understanding the Plants of Central Park

Understanding the Plants of Central Park is a mapping project that shows the locations and information about all of the plants in Central Park. It uses data from Central Park Conservancy, the Audubon Society, the Native American Ethnobotany Database, the New York Floral Atlas, and the Welikia Project to tell a fuller story about the history and uses of these plants. It used Python to collect and combine the data and ArcGIS to map and publish the final dataset.
