Abstract

The manual identification and geographic coding of accident locations is a tedious, time-consuming costly task. A system, which utilizes a computer to automatically assign a geographic code to reported accidents on all streets and highways in the State is developed. Productions runs on reported accidents indicate that 80% of the accidents can be geo-coded in this approach. The basis for the system, the methods and procedures applied, the results of the matching operation, and the costs involved are presented.
