For municipal parks and recreation departments, planners, GIS staff, and grant writers.
Turn scattered data into ranked investments you can explain to council and funders.
Park Equity Platform
Annual subscription. Pricing varies by population served.
From park layer to public case
A clearer basis for the next investment.
Access, condition, cost, and equity belong in the same conversation. Parkline brings them together so your department can compare options—not just map what already exists.
01
See where access falls short.
Start with your department’s park layer. Walk-time service areas and population, demographic, and heat overlays help identify gaps in access.
02
Compare what changes.
Score candidate projects by equity, condition, access gain, cost, and grant eligibility. Adjust the weights and compare how a new park or entrance changes access.
03
Make the case public.
Bring the reasoning into budget requests, grant applications, and council presentations. Publish maps that show where investment is planned and why.

Why Parkline
The plan should keep working after the presentation.
Run by Ryan, Parkline is being built around a gap in parks planning: asset systems record what exists, while a static master plan cannot keep pace with changing priorities.
Founder experience: Ryan has worked with the City of Raleigh building out an equitable park access metric and supporting analytics. This is Ryan’s experience, not a City endorsement or evidence of Parkline’s outcomes.
The aim is a planning layer that connects access standards to capital decisions—and keeps the reasoning visible.

Before you commit
A few practical details.
What happens to our data?
+
The planned analysis combines your department’s park layer with mostly public datasets, including census and street-network data. Confirm hosting, retention, export, and deletion terms with Ryan before entering an agreement.
Can we cancel?
+
Parkline’s offering is an annual subscription. Cancellation and renewal terms are not published here; ask Ryan to include them in your department’s proposal.
Does it work with our GIS or asset system?
+
Parkline is intended to sit above existing systems as a planning and prioritization layer. Direct integrations with asset systems and ArcGIS Online are planned for later expansion, not listed as core features. Share your current tools and data formats when requesting a quote.
