Parking citation locations in the District of Columbia, issued by the Metropolitan Police Department and partner agencies. Data includes summarized ticket counts based on time of day, week, year, and violation category, geocoded to street segment centroids.

Use Cases

• Analyze parking violation frequency by time of day and week of year to optimize enforcement patrol schedules.
• Map geocoded citation locations to street segment centroids for spatial analysis of high-violation corridors.

Strengths

• Data is geocoded to street segment centroids, enabling spatial analysis.
• Includes summarized counts by multiple temporal dimensions (time of day, week of year, year).

Limitations

• Specific row count, column names, and sample data are unavailable for assessing dataset scale and structure.
