Hi everyone! I reverse engineered Ann Arbor’s parking ticket system to track parking tickets in real time.

I ended up building a “Google Maps for parking tickets” in Ann Arbor. You can:

- See tickets being issued live

- View which officers issue the most tickets

- Identify the most ticketed streets and parking spots

- Explore other interesting stats/patterns

It started as a curiosity project (inspired by Riley Walz) and turned into something pretty fun (and slightly painful if you park downtown a lot).

Check it out here: ammarateya.com/a2-parking

Happy to answer questions about how it works or what I found: ammarateya.com/a2-parking/about
