1 GIS-ALAS: Accident Location and Analysis System Sponsored by the Iowa Department of Transportation Office of Transportation Safety

2 Why Crash Analysis Systems? >100 persons killed/day (>37,000 in 1996) 8.8 million crashes per year in USA 2.3 million injuries vast amount of uncoordinated data powerful/low cost computing potentially huge B/C source: NHTSA 1997

3 Past/present ALAS (PC-ALAS) PC-based system User-friendly interface, easy to learn About 700,000 crashes over 10 years Provides easy access to data Several Uses: –obtain accident statistics by time and location –query database by accident/driver characteristics –generate reports on-screen, to a file, to the printer

4 Current Difficulties Node numbers must be identified from tables or paper maps Difficult to analyze patterns Does not readily support integration of additional data Hard to identify crash “hot spots” and to analyze causes and countermeasures

12 GIS-ALAS Project Goals Develop geographic/map-based ALAS Use Power of GIS Portable, accessible, windows based Free users from node maps statewide coverage supports highway safety analysis facilitate integration with other data

13 Software Selection GIS World list –distribution –development language –vendor stability short list (pre-Geomedia) –ESRI (ArcView, Arcview Publisher, ArcExplorer, MapObjects) –Mapinfo –Caliper (Maptitude)

14 Software Selection (cont.) ESRI chosen –ISU site license (low cost development) –dynamic segmentation –network analysis –tech. Support (ISU GIS Facility) –FHWA platform –web application (MapObjects, Internet Mapper) –ArcExplorer, ArcPublisher May migrate later

15 Crash Locations text Text - node ID, x, y MapBasic interpolation program MapInfo Crash Locations CAD node file MGE (unit conversion) Text - node ID, lat, long MapInfo Node Locations Paper crash records DB2 - ID - from node - to node - distance - crash information MIF ArcView Crash Locations x’ y’
