FacDB: pick recipe

[sf-dcp]

While getting Shadow category recipes for the Green Fast Track product, I realized that one of the needed datasets, NYS Parks Property, may be already present in data library (nysparks_parks). I did end up pulling the requested data from a different source chosen by the GIS into a new recipe nysparks_parks_polygons as these datasets had different geometries and different row count.

Motivation

FacDB uses nysparks_parks recipe and we should re-evaluate whether we continue using this recipe or should switch to nysparks_parks_polygons instead.

Info on the recipes:

• nysparks_parks

  • Source: https://data.ny.gov/Recreation/State-Park-Facility-Points/9uuk-x7vh
  • Geometry: point
  • Row count: 254
  • Last updated (as of 3/15/24): 12/7/2020

• nysparks_parks_polygons

  • Source: https://data.gis.ny.gov/datasets/nysparks::ny-state-parks-property/about
  • Geometry: polygon
  • Row count: 860
  • Last updated (as of 3/15/24): 2/1/2024

Timeline

Until next FacDB build (May 2024?)

Same situation for nysparks_historicplaces. This is a Socrata datasource, but the ESRI version is more recently updated, with more rows. We use the newer version nysparks_historicplaces_esri in GFT, and need to swap it out in FacDB as well.

gonna make the change to use nysparks_parks_polygons and nysparks_historicplaces_esri as part of the 24v2 build (data update issue)
