Extract 'Rodent or Trash Violations' Feature from Restaurant Inspection Data

[jasonasher]

Start with the DC DOH Food Service Establishment Inspection report data in the /Data Sets/Restaurant Inspections/ folder in Dropbox.

Develop a script to extract the number of food establishment inspections that found rodent or trash-related violations (violations 38 or 54). More details on violations can be found here

Note that this issue depends upon the geocoding results from Issue #13

Input:
CSV files with inspection summary and violation details

Output:
A CSV file with

• 1 row for each establishment type and risk category, and each week, year, and census block
• The following columns:

feature_id: The ID for the feature, in this case, "restaurant_violations_rodent_or_trash"
feature_type: The establishment_type from the restaurant data set
feature_subtype: The risk_category from 1-5
year: The ISO-8601 year of the feature value
week: The ISO-8601 week number of the feature value
census_block_2010: The 2010 Census Block of the feature value
value: The value of the feature, i.e. the number of inspections that found rodent or trash-related violations in establishments with the given types and risk categories in the specified week, year, and census block.

Working on this now... I'll upload and post when finished

I recommend using the most recent data from
dc_restaurant_inspections

That set contains a 'violation description' column as well as a 'violation number' to deal with the fact that violation numbers have different meanings over time.

I finished this. I uploaded the files to dropbox.
