## License Information

This information was obtained via an open records request to the City of Milwaukee's Department of Public Works. Please use for legal purposes and to hopefully do some good. :)

We take ownership of this data and allow it to be publicly used, but we aren't responsible for how you use it or what happens when you use it.

## Suggestions on Use

This data could be helpful in identifying certain patterns or high-risk areas for car-drivers. Some ideas for use include:
* Combining this data with the aldermanic district KML files to show which district is the worst for violations

* Analyzing what time of day or day of the week is most likely to incur violations
* Finding which streets or blocks are most ticketed
* Combining this data with the aldermanic district or neighborhood KML files to show which areas of the city are best and worst for parking violations
* Determining what parking offenses are most often ticketed
