As a result of the previous research project “Improvement of processes to derive prevention measures against accident black spots” (MAIER et al., 2017) the web-based catalogue of countermeasures against Black Spots (MaKaU) was available as a prototype. This tool represents a supporting element for accident analysis, determining countermeasures and effectiveness control. The dissemination of the web tool as well as its optimization regarding to its operability are the two main goals of FE 03.0535/2015/FRB. The optimization of the MaKaU should be realized in close cooperation with selected Black Spot Management Teams as test users. Both the targeted adaptation of MaKaU to the wishes of the users and the establishment of a hierarchical instance system to ensure the requirements of data protection and the different structures of the federal states represent the decisive results of the research project. On the one hand, the feedback of the nine pilot teams was documented, categorized and prioritized. In coordination with the research-accompanying committee, modifications were made such as the dynamic design of the investigation periods, a flexible handling of packages of countermeasures and an extension of the upload area. On the other hand, amongst other things because of data protection, the user structure was adjusted. Now, both the federal republic and the federal states maintain their own servers. The maintenance of accident data, the registration of Black Spot Management teams and the assignment of users are in the responsibility of the federal states. Parameters of the effectiveness of implemented countermeasures are automatically and anonymously transmitted to the federal republic server. The federal republic is responsible for providing the catalogue of countermeasures and current empirical values. For the dissemination of MaKaU there were given lectures on conferences and training courses for interested states and Black Spot Management Teams. In addition, an information brochure and a detailed video tutorial were created. (Author/publisher)
