Closing the Equity Gap with Spatial Analysis

The concept of equity has gained significant attention recently, particularly within President Biden's Build Back Better framework, which aims to empower individuals and ensure access to essential resources regardless of location, race, or wealth. A wide gap in accessibility exists between high- and low-income neighborhoods, urban and rural areas, and communities of differing ethnicities. Spatial analysis and opportunity index scores can help determine equitable access to resources. The use of location data can aid in discovering equity gaps, such as in tree coverage, transportation safety, and opportunity. Cities like Chicago and Seattle are utilizing location intelligence platforms like CARTO to analyze and visualize data, leading to informed decision-making and improved outcomes for vulnerable communities.
