Code for America New Orleans has released an online application to track the spread of blight in the city, incorporating data from across multiple city departments.
Code for America explains that the city uses a legal process to prosecute blighted properties, sell them or demolish them with the eventual goal of putting them back on the market. The application is meant to collect information about blighted properties in one place to save time for engaged residents, activists and nonprofits, the organization explains in a blog post.
