Resident and Visitor Parking Permits
data.cambridgema.gov | Last Updated 2024-07-24T15:49:32.000ZThis dataset contains a list of both Residential Parking Permits and Visitor Parking Permits. The Traffic, Parking and Transportation Department’s Permit Year spans from November 1st through October 31st of the following year. The Parking Permit renewal period spans from November 1st through January 31st of the following year. This dataset will be updated semi-annually at the end of the Permit Year, and at the end of the Parking Permit renewal period, to provide users with updated information from before and after permit renewals occur. The dataset identifies the Census Block that each parking permit is located in. The first person that applies for a Resident Parking Permit will automatically receive that household’s single Visitor Parking Permit with their Resident Permit. For households without a vehicle or those who only require a Visitor Parking Permit, the associated fee is $25.00, except for Senior Residents (age 65 or older) or persons with disabilities. The Account Number field is associated with the first resident in a household who applied for either a Resident Parking Permit or a Visitor Parking Permit. If the resident applied for a Resident Parking Permit they should have an associated Visitor Parking Permit with the same Account Number. Each permit is characterized by a permit type. The permit types in this dataset include: A1: Standard Cambridge residential parking permit. A2: Replacement residential permit. A3: Senior resident permit. G1: Visitor permit, no resident permit. G2: Visitor permit with Resident Permit. G3: Senior Visitor Permit Only. A Senior Resident could have both an A3 and G3 permit, or just a G3 permit. Resident Parking Permits allow Cambridge residents to park their vehicles, including motorcycles, in locations throughout the City posted "Parking by Permit Only". The purpose of the City's Resident Parking regulation is to maximize the availability of parking for Cambridge residents while discouraging long-term parking on residential streets near commercially zoned areas or transportation access points. Visitor Parking Permits are provided to Cambridge residents for use by their guests to park near the residents’ homes. When placed on the dashboard, it may be used for up to three consecutive days in locations signed as “Parking by Permit Only” in the geographic area shown on the map on the back of the visitor permits or here on the Traffic and Parking Department’s website. http://www.cambridgema.gov/traffic/Permits/visitorparkingpermits/visitorparkingmap

Cambridge Address Points
data.cambridgema.gov | Last Updated 2024-08-14T04:19:07.000ZView full metadata https://www.cambridgema.gov/GIS/gisdatadictionary/Address/ADDRESS_AddressPoints Description This project was done in house as part of the Master Address Project. Thorough field checks have been carried out to ensure accuracy. Crosschecks have been made with various departments, including Assessing, Community Development, Elections, Emergency Communications, Inspectional Services, and Public Works. Each address point has attribute information including addresses, unique tax parcel ID and building ID which is useful for many different city departments for their respective systems and tools. Aside from housing and business addresses the following have also been included in this layer:Empty lots for potential addressesParks and open space addressesCall box locations About Edit Dates This data is automatically updated on a set schedule.

Certified Sustainable Buildings
data.cambridgema.gov | Last Updated 2024-02-02T21:51:12.000ZThis data set combines information from eight sustainable building certification programs, including two City regulatory programs, to show the extent and location of sustainable buildings in Cambridge. For inclusion in this data set, a building must meet at least one of the following criteria: receive approval from the City’s Article 22 regulatory process; receive certification from the Passive House program; receive certification from Enterprise Green Communities; or receive LEED certification under a LEED system that requires the whole building to meet sustainability standards. Some buildings meet two or more of these criteria. Information provided about the applicable sustainable building programs for qualifying buildings includes certification levels, certification types, ratings, or scores. Additionally, this data set contains information about other certifications (ENERGY STAR, Fitwel, and WELL) that may apply to covered buildings. If a covered building participates in the City’s BEUDO regulatory process, this data set indicates that. More specific information about BEUDO building energy usage can be found in the separate BUEDO data set. In this dataset, we use Cambridge GIS Building IDs as unique identifiers for certified sustainable buildings. Building IDs refer to one physical structure, even if there are multiple street addresses associated with that structure.

City Senior Center Interval Energy Data
data.cambridgema.gov | Last Updated 2023-11-03T21:10:21.000Z5-minute interval electric data for the Cambridge Senior center located at 806 Massachusetts Avenue from April 2013 through July 2018. The dataset enables analysis of electricity usage patterns over a series of days, weeks, months and years; this can help identify opportunities to reduce energy use and demand and can be used as a starting point to correlate energy consumption changes with conservation measures. Electricity use is the amount of electricity that has been consumed over a certain period of time. Electricity demand is the maximum amount of electrical energy that is being consumed at a given time. Electricity use is measured in kilowatt hours (kWh). Electricity demand is measured in kilowatts (kW). Additionally, this dataset contains measurements for Power Factor and Reactive Power. Power Factor is the ratio of the real power that is flowing to the load and the apparent power that is supplied to the circuit. Reactive Power occurs in alternating current circuits when there is a phase difference between voltage and current. It is measured in kVAR for demand and kVARh for use.
