221A and the Center for Spatial Technologies launch Vancouver housing access dashboard

The Centre for Spatial Technologies’ work with 221A concludes with the public launch of an interactive housing accessibility dashboard and heatmap for the city of Vancouver.

The dashboard documents the cost of access for renters and owners from 2006 until 2021 and invites you to map your access to property as your income has changed over the years.

The heatmap visualizes the rise in property costs across the city, revealing hotspots and allowing users to see the reterritorialization of Vancouver via its property values and rent costs, which have well overshot local incomes during this +15-year period.

Join 221A and CST founder and lead Maksym Romaniko for a livestream on November 3rd, 9am PDT.

They will be demonstrating how to use the dashboard, speaking about its development, and learning more about the ongoing work of the CST.

Register for the livestream here. Stay tuned via 221A's Twitter and Instagram for when the dashboard will go live.

Date: November 3rd, 2022 @ 9 am.
