District of Columbia Parking Violations for November 2013

Parking citation locations in the District of Columbia, issued by the Metropolitan Police Department and partner agencies. Data is geocoded to street segment centroids and summarized by time of day, week, and violation category. The dataset is sourced from the DC Department of Motor Vehicles eTIMS system.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatial patterns of parking violations using geocoded street segment centroids.
• Identify high-violation periods by summarizing ticket counts based on time of day and week of year.
• Study enforcement trends across different categories of violation.
• Integrate with Vision Zero initiatives to correlate parking enforcement with traffic safety outcomes.

Strengths

• Data is geocoded to street segment level, enabling precise spatial analysis.
• Violations are summarized by multiple temporal dimensions: time of day, week of year, and year.
• Sourced from the authoritative DC Department of Motor Vehicles eTIMS system.

Limitations

• Dataset is limited to a single month (November 2013), offering no longitudinal view.
• Sample data and specific row/column counts are unavailable, limiting assessment of scope.
