Open Access to Hawaii.PolicyMap Renewed for Another Year
We are pleased to announce that open access to Hawaii.PolicyMap will continue to be available for another year, thanks to the generosity of The Harry & Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, Hawai‘i Energy, and Hawai‘i State Department of Health, who have come alongside the Hawai‘i Data Collaborative to sponsor the Hawaii.PolicyMap Enterprise License.
Open access to Hawaii.PolicyMap has been available since 2019, and its user base continues to grow. As an easy-to-use online mapping tool, PolicyMap allows users to view hundreds of the most up-to-date publicly available datasets. Users can view data in an easily digestible format and draw insights for targeting interventions and identifying opportunities related to health, housing, employment, income, and more. While the data available on PolicyMap comes from disparate sources, they are standardized on the platform to allow for simple analysis across indicators. Users can also create their own maps and reports, as well as upload and download data. The Hawai‘i Data Collaborative is also working to bring more local data to the platform for deeper, more nuanced insight specific to our island communities.
Hawaii.PolicyMap users have access to exclusive indicators and layers, such as this one on Home Ownership Affordability for families earning 80% Area Median Income.
If you haven’t registered to become a user, we welcome you to sign up for an account so that you can start leveraging PolicyMap to inform your work.
