Downloads data from the 'UK Police' public data API. Includes data on UK police forces and police force areas, crime reports, and the use of stop-and-search powers.
Most functions return a tibble
with the requested data, with the exception
of ukc_specific_outcome()
in some cases, which returns a list containing a
list and a tibble
.
Data accessed through ukpolice
is licenced with
Open Government Licence v3.0.
The API allows for 15 requests each second, but up to 30 in a single second if in a single burst. The API does not require authentication. See the API documentation for more details.
