Furthering its commitment to transparency and open data, the City of Pittsburgh today unveiled Burgh’s Eye View, a new mobile web application giving residents instant visual access to important neighborhood data. 
 
This mobile web application will allow citizens, for the first time, to gain visual insight into a wide range of data including incidents of crime and other public safety data, building permits and code violations, and “311” service requests.   
 
“Transparency and openness are essential to ensuring a responsive City government and thriving neighborhoods,” said Mayor William Peduto. “Burgh’s Eye View brings that transparency directly to the citizens of Pittsburgh, and more importantly transforms the experience of open government – by making it truly accessible to everyone.”
