1. Road Accident Prone Site Detection
Project
using
Geospatial Technology and its
Application

Bengaluru - 560012
3. 1. Introduction
According to report of Ministry of Road Transport & Highways,
Govt. of India
As per 2011 Report
1 accident per minute
And
1 death per 3.7 minute
Accident was 9th leading
cause in 2005, and it is expected
it will be 5th death cause in 2030

4. Causes of Road Accidents
The three different types of factors that
contribute to road Accidents:
1. Human Factors
2. Vehicle Factors and
3. RoadwayFactors

5. Road Parameters Affecting the Road Safety
1. Cross-Section
of the Road
3. Curvature of the
Roadway
2. Roadside
Condition

6. 4. Access Management
The concept that access-related
vehicular manoeuvres and
volumes can have serious
consequences on the
performance of traffic operations
and road safety
5. Sight distance
A sight distance of sufficient
length is necessary so that a
driver can control the operation
of their vehicles to avoid hitting
an unexpected object on the road

7. 2. Objective
Objective of this work is detection of road accident prone
sites with the help of GIS technologies and past accident data.
3. Road Accident Site Detection
Road accident prone site detection is the process of detection
of sites on roads where accidents are more likely to happen

8. 4. Methodology
1. Define the area of study.
2. Digitized roads and other spatial entities.
3. Collect the accidental data of that region.
4. Overlay the accident points on the geocoded map.
5. Identify the high accident density region.
6. Mark them as accident prone and suggest required
sign for that region.
7. Propose appropriatesign board for that reason.

15. We can put board on roads such as
5/8/2016 15KSCST
16. 5. Conclusion
• With the help of past data and GIS
technologies it very easy to detect.
• Reduced accident at some extent.
• Not a quantified way to present how much
that area is prone.
• It need ground truth to decide type of sign
board
