Police Incident Blotter (Archive)

The Police Blotter Archive contains crime incident data after it has been validated and processed to meet Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) standards, published on a nightly basis. This data validation process creates a data publishing delay of approximately thirty days. Users who require the most recent incident data should use the 30 Day Police Blotter. The 30 Day Police Blotter dataset contains more recent data, but has not yet been run through quality control and standardization procedures by the Police Bureau. All data is reported at the block/intersection level, with the exception of sex crimes, which are reported at the police zone level. 

This dataset only contains information reported by City of Pittsburgh Police, and does not contain incidents that solely involve other police departments operating within the city (campus police, Port Authority, etc.)

More documentation is available in our [Crime Data Guide](https://wiki.tessercat.net/wiki/Crime,_Courts,_and_Corrections_in_the_City_of_Pittsburgh).

Non-Traffic Citations

Non-traffic citations (NTCs, also known as "summary offenses") document low-level criminal offenses where a law enforcement officer or other authorized official issued a citation in lieu of arrest. These citations normally include a fine. In Pennsylvania, NTCs often include a notice to appear before a magistrate if the person does not provide a guilty plea. Offenses that normally result in a citation include disorderly conduct, loitering, harassment and retail theft.  

This dataset only contains information reported by City of Pittsburgh Police. It does not contain incidents that solely involve other police departments operating within the city (for example, campus police or Port Authority police).

Latinos are not included in this data as a race and they will not be reflected in this data.

Port Authority Monthly On Time Performance by Route

This dataset contains the monthly average on time performance (OTP) percentage by route and service day type (weekday, Saturday, and Sunday/Holiday service). A bus is considered on time if it is no more than one minute early or five minutes late to a timepoint.

Port Authority has an OTP goal of 73% for bus and 80% for rail service.

Starting in October 2018, Port Authority moved to a different OTP recording system called Clever.  OTP data from the Clever system is more accurate because it uses more timepoints; the previous system excluded a large portion of data from OTP processing due to minor technical issues with rider counts on certain trips.

The Mon Incline is not included in this dataset because it does not have a schedule. Service runs every 15 minutes. 

OTP only goes back as far as November 2018 for the "T" light rail line because the railcars did not have Automated Vehicle Locators installed until then.

Weekly Pennsylvania COVID-19 Vaccinations Stats Archive

Weekly archive of some State of Pennsylvania datasets found in this list: https://data.pa.gov/browse?q=vaccinations

For most of these datasets, the "date_saved" field is the date that the WPRDC pulled the data from the state data portal and the archive combines all the saved records into one table. The exception to this is the "COVID-19 Vaccinations by Day by County of Residence Current Health (archive)" which is already published by the state as an entire history.

The "date_updated" field is based on the date that the "updatedAt" field from the corresponding data.pa.gov dataset. Changes to this field have turned out to not be a good indicator of whether records have updated, which is why we are archiving this data on a weekly basis without regard to the "updatedAt" value. The "date_saved" field is the one you should sort on to see the variation in vaccinations over time.

Most of the source tables have gone through schema changes or expansions. In some cases, we've kept the old archives under a separate resource with something like "[Orphaned Schema]" added to the resource name. In other cases, we've adjusted our schema to accommodate new column names, but there will be a date range during which the new columns have null values because we did not start pulling them until we became aware of them.

Allegheny County Public Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, and Spa Inspections

This dataset includes information from inspection reports of permitted swimming pools, recirculating spray pads, and hot tubs/spas in Allegheny County. In conjunction with the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA), and under the framework of their SAFE Aquatic Data Standard, a selection of fields was identified to be pulled from aquatic facility inspection reports into this compiled dataset. 

The fields represent information that would be collected at a typical inspection of an aquatic facility not only in Allegheny County, but in other jurisdictions across the United States. These fields include things like disinfectant level, if the water was clear during the inspection, if appropriate safety equipment was present & in good repair, etc. The ultimate hope is that if other jurisdictions establish an online open data portal with information that corresponds with the SAFE Aquatic Data Standard, data could be compared and analyzed in a standardized way across the US, something that cannot currently be accomplished in an efficient manner due to the lack of a standardized data collection system. Allegheny County is one of only a handful of other jurisdictions that was selected by NEHA to be the pioneers of this new SAFE aquatic data standard.

POGOH Trip Data

Dataset includes closed status, trip duration, Start Station Id, Start Date, Start Station Name, End Date, End Station Id, End Station Name, and Rider Type. 

In the closed status colum, normal correlates to a standard rider return. Grace period indicates the bike was not removed within 60 seconds, and was relocked and returned without being removed from the dock. Terminated or forced close trips are ended by staff, and typically have incorrect durations or return locations.

In the rider type column, casual type correlates to our "Pay-as-you-Go" product. All annual, prepaid, or corporate passes types are member types.

Allegheny County Property Sale Transactions

This dataset contains data on all Real Property parcels that have sold since 2013 in Allegheny County, PA.

Before doing any market analysis on property sales, check the sales validation codes. Many property "sales" are not considered a valid representation of the true market value of the property. For example, when multiple lots are together on one deed with one price they are generally coded as invalid ("H") because the sale price for each parcel ID number indicates the total price paid for a group of parcels, not just for one parcel. See the Sales Validation Codes Dictionary for a complete explanation of valid and invalid sale codes.

Sales Transactions Disclaimer: Sales information is provided from the Allegheny County Department of Administrative Services, Real Estate Division. Content and validation codes are subject to change. Please review the Data Dictionary for details on included fields before each use. Property owners are not required by law to record a deed at the time of sale. Consequently the assessment system may not contain a complete sales history for every property and every sale. You may do a deed search at http://www.alleghenycounty.us/re/index.aspx directly for the most updated information.
Note: Ordinance 3478-07 prohibits public access to search assessment records by owner name. It was signed by the Chief Executive in 2007.

Allegheny County Tax Liens (Filings, Satisfactions, and Current Status)

Tax liens are a method the government uses to secure an interest in unpaid tax debt. This dataset represents information about county, municipal, school district, and water/sewer tax liens by parcel (and property identification number, where available). This dataset includes the name of the municipality, county or school district filing, the date that the lien was filed, and the tax amount at the date of filing.

This data is based on records that were filed dating back to 1995. This dataset will be updated with the previous month's filings as new data becomes available (typically, close to the beginning of the month).

Delinquent Tax Docket numbers are not unique identifiers. Instead, users need to combine the Delinquent Tax Docket number, the tax year, and the lien description.

This dataset represents our best effort to describe the state of tax liens. Users are encouraged to consult the Allegheny County Department of Court Records web site, as it is the definitive and most reliable source for this information:

https://dcr.alleghenycounty.us/

More detailed and up-to-date information on each lien can be found on that site.
