District of Columbia Parking Violations for October 2014

District of Columbia parking citation data from October 2014, issued by the Metropolitan Police Department and partner agencies. The dataset contains geocoded ticket counts summarized by time of day, week, and violation category, originally sourced from the eTIMS meter work order system.

Use Cases

• Analyze parking violation frequency by time of day and week of year to identify peak enforcement periods.
• Map geocoded citation counts at street segment centroids for spatial hot spot analysis of traffic enforcement.
• Study patterns across different categories of violation to inform urban planning and congestion control policies.

Strengths

• Data is geocoded to the street segment level, enabling precise spatial analysis.
• Includes multiple data formats like CSV and GEOJSON for flexible access.
• Covers a specific month (October 2014) providing a focused temporal snapshot.

Limitations

• Sample size is unknown, potentially limiting statistical power for analysis.
• Data is from a single month in 2014, which may not reflect current parking patterns.
• Lacks column-level detail, obscuring the specific variables available for modeling.
