District of Columbia Parking Violations Summary for Weeks 27 to 52

2014 data from the District of Columbia's Vision Zero initiative summarizes parking violations by week and time of day. The dataset provides a weekly perspective on over 50 different violation combinations, aggregated into 26 distinct street segments for the second half of the year. It was created by the Metropolitan Police Department and partner agencies to analyze spatial and temporal enforcement patterns.

Use Cases

• Analyze weekly patterns of violation types to identify enforcement hotspots across 26 street segments.
• Create temporal heat maps of violation counts by time of day ranges to visualize congestion-related incidents.
• Query by week to compare the frequency of different violation categories across the District of Columbia.

Strengths

• Covers over 50 different combinations of parking violation types.
• Provides a weekly aggregated perspective for 26 weeks of data from 2014.
• Data originates from authoritative District of Columbia agencies like MPD and DDOT.

Limitations

• Records without a time of day or those not associated with a street segment were excluded, potentially reducing coverage.
• Data is temporally stale, covering only the second half of 2014.
• The summary is an aggregated crosstab, limiting access to raw, individual violation records.
