Last week the Library worked with Wendy Fry at NBC7 to analyze GPS records of street sweeping and parking violations. We haven’t got the data online yet — it’s about 3GB, 11M GPS records — but let us know if you are interested in accessing it. A condensed version of the data is available as a heatmap of blocks where tickets were issued on days the streets were not swept.

This is an issue I’m interested in. I grew up in Clairemont close to Mesa College. The city put up street sweeping signs when I was a teenager but never swept the streets. I also lived in North Park for a few years where this was an ongoing issue. I lived on Polk and Louisiana. Look it up on the map.
Is the map always on time? I got a ticket last night (10/13/2016) and I can’t see a a gps trace for street sweepers!
No, sorry, the data hasn’t been updated since the story ran.
