District of Columbia Parking Violations July 2019

District of Columbia data contains parking citation locations issued by the Metropolitan Police Department and partner agencies in July 2019. The dataset provides summarized ticket counts based on time of day, week, and violation category, with data geocoded to street segment centroids.

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 high-violation zones.
• Examine patterns in the category of violation to understand common infractions and enforcement focus.

Strengths

• Data is geocoded to street segment level, enabling precise spatial analysis.
• Includes summarized counts by multiple temporal dimensions: time of day, week of year, and year.
• Sourced from official District of Columbia agencies like MPD and DDOT.

Limitations

• Specific row count, column names, and sample data are unavailable for assessing scale and structure.
• Data is limited to a single month (July 2019), restricting longitudinal trend analysis.
• Visualization uses street segment centroid coordinates, which may not represent exact violation locations.
