Abstract

The purpose of this study is to present the prediction analysis of traffic accident and future applications by calculating accident risks based on ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) data via VDS (Vehicle Detecting System). Many researches have described various traffic accident predictions and reductions. However, until recently, empirical studies considering real traffic environments are still insufficient. Site selections in this study were made from accident related data and collected data from VDS to calculate traffic accident rates. Results from analysis showed occurrence of traffic accident by time and explore possibilities for its application in future traffic accident management.
