The project partners with the Council of Governments (CoGs) serving the selected communities to provide on the ground data in neighborhoods to accurately assess and map community infrastructure features in order to identify multiple projects appropriate for CDBG infrastructure funding. DSPG students will utilize map collection technologies (smart phones and Global Positioning Systems app) to inventory neighborhoods infrastructure and overlay this site level data with other community attributes as part of the deliverable for this project.
