Evaluates park systems for cities based on access, investment, acreage, amenities, and equity. You can map the city of San Antonio using these factors as well as park placement to analyze areas that need additional green space.

Google Earth is a geospatial analysis program that uses satellite imagery to create 3D representations of places on Earth. Try mapping a specific address in Google Earth to get a good sense of factors like shade cover, smaller green spaces, building and housing structures, roads, etc.

This map allows you to explore social mobility data by neighborhood, e.g., what are the adult life outcomes of children born in different areas and affected by different factors, such as poverty, race and gender, incarceration, etc. Keep in mind some data is available at the census tract level (neighborhood and within neighborhood) and some only at the county level.
