Open Data NY - DOH

created Jan 29 2013

updated Aug 7 2020

Description

This data includes the name and location of food service establishments and the violations that were found at the time of their last inspection. Although violation details are collected on inspection reports (i.e., the actual food item, quantity and temperature of food found out of temperature control) as well as corrective actions for critical violations, this data set is limited to the violation number and the corresponding general violation description. This dataset is for reporting purposes only. Any concerns about individual establishments should be referred to the corresponding Local Health Department.

This dataset is refreshed on a monthly basis. Some counties provide this information on their own websites and information found there may be more frequently updated. More detailed information can be obtained directly from each local health department through the Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) process. Requests for more detailed information or actual copies of inspection reports should be directed to the local health department or State District Office which conducted the inspections in question. Researchers agree to: Use the data for statistical reporting and analysis only. The author will include a disclaimer that states any analyses, interpretations or conclusions were reached by the author and not the NYSDOH. Last inspection data is the most recently submitted and available data. Historical inspection data through 2005 is also available. Active establishments can be found at: https://health.data.ny.gov/Health/Food-Service-Establishment-Inspections-Beginning-2/2hcc-shji. Inactive (closed) establishments can be found at: https://health.data.ny.gov/Health/Food-Service-Establishment-Inspections-Beginning-2/aaxz-j6pj.

Limitations
This dataset excludes inspections conducted in New York City (https://nycopendata.socrata.com/), Suffolk County (https://eco.suffolkcountyny.gov/#/pa1/search) and Erie County (http://www.healthspace.com/erieny). Inspections are a “snapshot” in time and are not always reflective of the day-to-day operations and overall condition of an establishment. Occasionally, remediation may not appear until the following month due to the timing of the updates. The inspection data contained in this dataset was not collected in a manner intended for use as a restaurant grading system, and should not be construed or interpreted as such. Any use of this data to develop a restaurant grading system is not supported or endorsed by the New York State Department of Health.
