The National Zoning Atlas is a project of the Legal Constructs Lab at the Cornell University College of Architecture, Art, and Planning to create a national database documenting the zoning codes of every jurisdiction across the country.
Results: Using an open-source stack built on Azure, we deployed a web server and installed Django as a backend. Separately, we deployed an Azure Blob storage to store uploaded files and data, and an Azure Database to host the PostgreSQL instance. Using accessibility best practices, and using the Bootstrap 5 framework, we built a series of pages for viewing, uploading, importing, and editing jurisdictions and zoning districts. For pre-loading data, we used Handsontable to give users an easy way to paste the zoning and jurisdiction data they discovered in their research.
