PUBLIC SAFETY DATA

The Toronto Police Service Public Safety Data Portal is intended to improve the understanding of policing, improve transparency and enhance confidence through the creation and use of open data for public safety in Toronto.

The Public Safety Data Portal makes available, raw event data from incidents which have been reported to and/or investigated by the Toronto Police Service. For privacy reasons, this data does not include personal information (such as names, addresses, etc.) but does include information such as the type of incident, date, time, nearest intersection, etc.

Open data from events leading up to December 31 of the previous calendar year is available for download. Open data from January 1 of the current calendar year is not available for download but can be viewed through a suite of online tools and interactive maps.

Below are just a few of the tools available through this portal.
