AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
Public Chauffeurs - Historical

<b>NOT CURRENT DATA</b> - This dataset contains <b>past</b> records from the <a href="https://data.cityofchicago.org/d/97wa-y6ff">Public Chauffeurs dataset</a>. It is intended for historical reference, not current licensing information. It follows the format of the Public Chauffeurs dataset, with the addition of two additional columns at the end.

The Last Valid Date column indicates the most recent timestamp when that set of values appeared in the Public Chauffeurs dataset.  It indicates when that version of the license record <b>stopped</b> being valid (was replaced by an updated version), not when it <b>started</b> being valid (replaced a previous version or was created for a newly added license). Due to various technical limitations, the Last Valid Date may be artificially late and intervening versions not shown are possible.

The Record Version ID is a unique identifier that has no meaning beyond distinguishing different versions of the same license.

Please read the article linked below for more information.

Due to a change in source systems, many licenses will appear to have changed on 11/21/2018, even if no actual change to the license took place. Some records between 11/19/2018 and 11/21/2018 may be unreliable and should be used with caution. The Expires column was added with the move to the new source system so will not appear in earlier records.

Influenza Vaccination Coverage, ZIP Code

Chicago residents who are up to date with influenza vaccines by ZIP Code, based on the reported home address and age group of the person vaccinated, as provided by the medical provider in the Illinois Comprehensive Automated Immunization Registry Exchange (I-CARE).

“Up to date” refers to individuals aged 6 months and older who have received 1+ doses of influenza vaccine during the current season, defined as the beginning of July (MMWR week 27) through the end of the following June (MMWR week 26). 

Data Notes:

Weekly cumulative totals of people up to date are shown for each combination ZIP Code and age group. Note there are rows where age group is "All ages" so care should be taken when summing rows. Weeks begin on a Sunday and end on a Saturday.

Coverage percentages are calculated based on the cumulative number of people in each ZIP Code and age group who are considered up to date as of the week ending date divided by the estimated number of people in that subgroup. Population counts are obtained from the 2020 U.S. Decennial Census. For ZIP Codes mostly outside Chicago, coverage percentages are not calculated because reliable Chicago-only population counts are not available. Actual counts may exceed population estimates and lead to coverage estimates that are greater than 100%, especially in smaller ZIP Codes with smaller populations. Additionally, the medical provider may report a work address or incorrect home address for the person receiving the vaccination, which may lead to over- or underestimation of vaccination coverage by geography. All coverage percentages are capped at 99%.

The Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) uses the most complete data available to estimate influenza vaccination coverage among Chicagoans, but there are several limitations that impact our estimates. Influenza vaccine administration is not required to be reported in Illinois, except for publicly funded vaccine (e.g., Vaccines for Children, Section 317). Individuals may receive vaccinations that are not recorded in I-CARE, such as those administered in another state, or those administered by a provider that does not submit data to I-CARE, causing underestimation of the number individuals who received an influenza vaccine for the current season.

All data are provisional and subject to change. Information is updated as additional details are received and it is, in fact, very common for recent dates to be incomplete and to be updated as time goes on. At any given time, this dataset reflects data currently known to CDPH.

Numbers in this dataset may differ from other public sources due to when data are reported and how City of Chicago boundaries are defined.

For all datasets related to influenza, see https://data.cityofchicago.org/browse?limitTo=datasets&sortBy=alpha&tags=flu .

811 Chicago Utility Hit Tickets

Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT), Division of Infrastructure Management (DIM), operates Chicago’s “One Call” service—known as “<a href="https://ipi.cityofchicago.org/digger">811 Chicago</a>.” Per <a href="https://www.chicityclerk.com/legislation-records/municipal-code">Municipal Code of Chicago (MCC)</a> § 10-21-080, “in the event of damage to any underground facilities, the person responsible for the damage shall immediately notify…811 Chicago.”

811 Chicago records all reported damages as “hit tickets.” This dataset contains hit tickets since January 1, 2020. (Prior to that date, hit tickets data is a less reliable measure of utility damages.)

Please note, a hit ticket does not necessarily mean damage occurred or implicate the parties listed on the hit ticket as having caused the damage. For example, an excavator may report damage they discovered, but did not cause; an entity may incorrectly report the utility that was damaged or who caused the damage; the same damage may be reported by more than one entity. 811 Chicago investigates all reported damages to determine if there was a violation of MCC § 10-21. During the course of its investigation, 811 Chicago will confirm the information on the hit ticket. If 811 Chicago discovers inaccurate information, it may not update the hit ticket. The data related to 811 Chicago’s investigation is not exposed in this data set. Importantly, 811 Chicago does not determine which entity is liable for the damage, and the “hit by” field does not indicate that the individual or entity caused the damage or violated MCC  § 10-21.

Roadway Construction Moratoriums

Moratoriums are established by the Department of Transportation as a method of protecting reconstructed or repaved roadways within the boundaries of the city.

By having access to this Moratorium list in advance, contractors or utilities with projects that require excavation of roadways can more effectively plan and review conflicts that will be encountered. Currently, roadway sections with active moratoriums have special consideration as to method and size of restoration, and additionally, increased permit fees. Three moratorium types are displayed in this dataset:

1. <b>Street Construction</b> is used when the street has been reconstructed. By City ordinance, the moratorium is ten (10) years and during this period permit fees are doubled.

2. <b>Street Resurfacing</b> is used when the road has been repaved. By City ordinance, the moratorium is five (5) years and during this period permit fees are doubled. A degradation fee may also be applied for any Street Construction or Street Resurfacing moratoriums.

3. <b>Median or Median Landscaping</b> is used where landscaped medians or planters exist on the street median. For these moratorium types, there is no fee adjustment; however, if a construction permit is being requested, the applicant will be directed to review the planned project with the Department of Transportation/Division of Engineering staff for special instructions on how to properly protect or reconstruct street medians.

For more information, please see https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/depts/cdot/provdrs/construction_information/svcs/roadway_constructionmoratoriums.html.

Chicago Traffic Tracker - Congestion Estimates by Segments

This dataset contains the current estimated speed for about 1250 segments covering 300 miles of arterial roads. For a more detailed description,  please go to https://tas.chicago.gov, click the About button at the bottom of the page, and then the MAP LAYERS tab.

The Chicago Traffic Tracker estimates traffic congestion on Chicago’s arterial streets (nonfreeway
streets) in real-time by continuously monitoring and analyzing GPS traces received from Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) buses. Two types of congestion estimates are produced every ten minutes: 1) by Traffic Segments and 2) by Traffic Regions or Zones. Congestion estimate by traffic segments gives the observed speed typically for one-half mile of a street in one direction of traffic.

Traffic Segment level congestion is available for about 300 miles of principal arterials. Congestion by Traffic Region gives the average traffic condition for all arterial street segments within a region. A traffic region is comprised of two or three community areas with comparable traffic patterns. 29 regions are created to cover the entire city (except O’Hare airport area).
This dataset contains the current estimated speed for about 1250 segments covering 300 miles of arterial roads.
There is much volatility in traffic segment speed. However, the congestion estimates for the traffic regions remain consistent for relatively longer period. Most volatility in arterial speed comes from the very nature of the arterials themselves. Due to a myriad of factors, including but not limited to frequent
intersections, traffic signals, transit movements, availability of alternative routes, crashes, short length of the segments, etc. speed on individual arterial segments can fluctuate from heavily congested to no congestion and back in a few minutes. The segment speed and traffic region congestion estimates
together may give a better understanding of the actual traffic conditions.

Speed Camera Violations

This dataset reflects the daily volume of violations that have occurred in Children's Safety Zones for each camera. The data reflects violations that occurred from July 1, 2014 until present, minus the most recent 14 days. This data may change due to occasional time lags between the capturing of a potential violation and the processing and determination of a violation. The most recent 14 days are not shown due to revised data being submitted to the City of Chicago. The reported violations are those that have been collected by the camera and radar system and reviewed by two separate City contractors. In some instances, due to the inability the registered owner of the offending vehicle, the violation may not be issued as a citation. However, this dataset contains all violations regardless of whether a citation was issued, which provides an accurate view into the Automated Speed Enforcement Program violations taking place in Children's Safety Zones. More information on the Safety Zone Program can be found here: http://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/depts/cdot/supp_info/children_s_safetyzoneporgramautomaticspeedenforcement.html. The corresponding dataset for red light camera violations is https://data.cityofchicago.org/id/spqx-js37.
