Abstract |
The number of road crashes is significantly growing worldwide. In the transportation sector, accident outcomes are usually the loss of lives and injuries. To avoid further damages, a tool entitled geographical information system (GIS) could be helpful. GIS has the most demanding tools used to analyze road accidents and road design that can be noteworthy in traffic accident prevention. The purpose of this review is to propose the superlative approach of GIS applicable to accident analysis in different circumstances. The reviewed statistical results of accidents are performed by GIS but the numerical study is not consummate by GIS. Mainly, four essential GIS techniques are introduced and discussed in this review paper to simulate road accidents and suggest some prolific accident analysis tools for road safety. Language: en |
