District of Columbia Parking Violation Locations from February 2014

February 2014 parking citation data from Washington D.C., geocoded to street segments by the Office of the Chief Technology Officer. The dataset summarizes ticket counts based on time of day, week, year, and violation category, originally sourced from the Department of Motor Vehicles' eTIMS system.

Use Cases

• Analyze parking violation frequency by time of day and week of year to identify peak enforcement periods.
• Map geocoded citation locations to street segment centroids for spatial analysis of enforcement hotspots.
• Examine patterns in the category of violation to understand common infractions.
• Use summarized ticket counts for traffic congestion modeling and urban planning initiatives.

Strengths

• Data is geocoded to the street segment level, enabling precise spatial analysis.
• Citations are summarized by multiple temporal dimensions (time of day, week, year).
• Sourced from the authoritative District Department of Motor Vehicles' eTIMS system.

Limitations

• Data is limited to a single month (February 2014), restricting longitudinal analysis.
• Sample data and specific column details are unavailable for inspection.
• Data represents summarized counts, not individual citation records.
