DICKINSON, N.Y. — The Agency says it has developed a new Broome County dashboard to provide a snapshot of how the local economy is doing emerging from the virus crisis.
The organization worked on the project in partnership with data and software experts at eImpact, a Portland, Oregon–based company.
The dashboard monitors the economic health of Broome County by providing both baseline data as well as changes to the economy following the pandemic-influenced shutdown and subsequent phased reopening of the local economy.
