New York State Disability Parking Permit Records

Parking Permits for People with Disabilities (PPPD) State data lists permits issued to individuals certified by a physician as having a mobility-impairing disability.

Use Cases

• Model PERMIT_STATUS (e.g., active, expired) using features like APPL_STATUS and Permit EXPIRATION_DATE.
• Identify patterns in permit lifecycle by joining records on Permit Tag Num across different status updates.
• Assess program integrity by correlating APPL_STATUS with fields like VEHICLE_STOLEN or Lost App.

Strengths

• Includes multiple status tracking columns like PERMIT_STATUS and APPL_STATUS for lifecycle analysis
• Provides temporal fields such as APPL_DATE, PERMIT EFFECTIVE_DATE, and Permit EXPIRATION_DATE

Limitations

• Sample data and total row count are unavailable, preventing assessment of dataset scale
