# DC Government Health and Human Services Hackathon
National Day of Civic Hacking, September 23rd, 2017

This repository is for hackathon projects supporting the DC Department of Health.

***
## Project descriptions

***
### Rat Riddance
Orkin Pest Control recently named Washington DC the third "rattiest" city in America, and long-time DC residents know that rodent populations have been on the rise. Mayor Bowser announced a "Rat Riddance" intitiative last year, which aims to reduce rodent populations through changes in commercial practice and community awareness campaigns. In support of these efforts, the DC Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) has been analyzing 311 service request data related to rodent abatement requests and developing models to predict upticks in rat-related complaints in space and time.

The goals for our project are 2-fold:
1. Develop models that can predict long-term trends in rodent complaints. These models will be complementary to ongoing OCTO efforts.
2. Build out features on a public-facing 311 data portal that allows users to examine trends in service complaints over time and in their neighborhoods. This data portal will encompass all nuisance-related service complains, not just those related to rodents.

***
### Food Safety/Restaurant Inspections
1. Data analysis/visualizations of the DOH restaurant inspection data report
2. Develop a model featuring relationships between location, risk category, serious food-safety violations, closure etc.
