District of Columbia Parking Violation Summaries for 2015 Weeks 1-26

District of Columbia data summarizes parking violation ticket counts by time of day, week of year, and violation category for the first 26 weeks of 2015. The dataset provides a weekly perspective on over 50 violation combinations, aggregated into 26 distinct street segments. It was created by the District of Columbia from Vision Zero enforcement data.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatial patterns of violation types by week to create street segment heat maps.
• Identify which parking violation category occurred most frequently during specific time of day ranges.

Strengths

• Covers over 50 different combinations of parking violations.
• Provides 26 distinct weekly street segment summaries for half a year.
• Data is aggregated for spatial pattern analysis on a weekly basis.

Limitations
