Open Data Policing NC Update #4
Alejandra, Dylan, and Colin discussed mapping ideas for the Fayetteville data:
- Race of stops compared to block demographics by census blocks
- Determine if percentage is reasonable
- Color/intensity indicates if area is over/under represented
- Problem: commuters may not live in that census block
- For a given stop cause that is typically inappropriate, color blocks based on relative percentage of types over stops in that block

- Problem: highlights more busy roads
