This summarizes a GISCorps project with Community Solutions on the use of geospatial and data visualization tools for the Northeast Hartford Partnership. Over the past year, five GISCorps volunteers have been working with Community Solutions to effectively portray a variety of indices on health and economic security for use by residents and the Hartford community to improve the conditions of this neighborhood. Data are brought together for display and analysis on a web platform.
