Chicago Park District
The Chicago Park district is one of the largest municipal park managers in the nation with 8,100 acres of green space spread across 580 different parks. It also manages many indoor facilities, historical landmarks, and beaches. Eight of Chicago’s most popular beaches have weather stations or water quality buoys monitoring environmental conditions around the clock. These monitoring locations are all interconnected and push data up to WQData LIVE, forming a very large and important data monitoring network.
