Calgary Intersection Safety Camera Locations And Attributes

Intersection Safety Cameras detect vehicle speed and red-light violations at signalized intersections with high collision rates. The dataset includes location details such as Ward, Community, and geographic coordinates. It is published by data.calgary.ca and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the distribution of cameras across City Quadrants and Wards to assess enforcement equity.
• Correlate camera locations (Community, Point) with historical collision data to evaluate safety program effectiveness.
• Map camera sites using the Point field for visualizations of urban safety infrastructure coverage.
• Model red-light violation rates by Ward or Quadrant using the descriptive location data.

Strengths

• Data includes precise geospatial coordinates via the Point column for mapping.
• Provides administrative context through multiple columns like Ward, Community, and Quadrant.

Limitations

• Dataset size, row count, and temporal coverage are unknown, limiting analytical scope.
• Lacks performance metrics (e.g., violation counts, speeds recorded) for the cameras themselves.
