Field Foundation Interactive Maps

For the Field Foundation of Illinois, urbagraphics created multiple interactive mapping applications for public use on their website and compiled and analyzed data on the city of Chicago, outlining geographic priority areas where an analysis of quality-of-life factors indicates areas of greatest need. We analyzed indicators such as educational outcomes, access to health insurance, commute times, violent crime rates, and access to arts and culture in those areas.

The Field Foundation is using these maps to direct grant funding towards areas that need it most, bringing much needed resources to these communities in the program areas of art, journalism & storytelling, justice, and leadership investment.
