As we discussed at our March 31 meeting, the Research group has settled on mapping these indicators. Each of these has an individual issue that are referenced automatically (through the GitHub reference method).

  1. Median Income (Potential Benefits)
  2. Active issued business licenses (Potential Benefits)
  3. Injury Rates for cyclists (Health) (this requires the bike count data to be transformed from its PDF status) (Robert)
  4. Bike counts (Potential Benefits)
  5. Hypertension/High Blood Pressure (Potential Benefits)

This issue should be closed when all are mapped. These are different than the parts of the Access Index
