The regular operation of the emergency food service in New York City faces challenges during this critical time. Many of them used to provide free meals to children but now have expanded their service to the general public to mitigate potential hunger. However, does New York City feed its residents well during COVID-19 with the new strategy? In this research, I collect the geographical information about the current free food distribution sites, as well as the demographic, economic, and social data in each Neighborhood Tabulation Areas (NTA) to analyze the performance of free food distribution sites in New York City. The presentation contains descriptive maps answering the above question with methods used to conduct those analyses. It shows the potential of using data and GIS to discover gaps in public service and improve facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
