Daily records of traffic and camera-related offences and fines issued across the Australian Capital Territory. The dataset is provided by the ACT Government via data.act.gov.au and contains records starting from July 2021.

Use Cases

• Analyze trends in Sum of Penalty Amount by Offence Date and Offence Description.
• Identify high-violation Camera Locations by aggregating Infringement Count.
• Model Client Type distribution (e.g., individual vs. commercial) for different Infringement Types.
• Filter records by Registration State to analyze interstate vehicle offences.
• Join data with external camera location datasets using the Camera Location field for spatial analysis.

Strengths

• Daily temporal granularity for trend analysis.
• Contains 8 distinct columns covering offence details, location, and financial penalty.

Limitations

• Sample size and total row count are unknown.
• Infringement Type 'TRF_TIN' lacks location codes for linking, limiting spatial joins for those records.
