PROBLEM & MOTIVATION
Recent efforts by the Singapore Traffic Police in educating the public on road safety has decreased the number of Fatal Accidents in Singapore by 15.7% in 2017 as compared to 2016 (Chua, 2018). Despite the improvement, Singapore's road fatalities per 100,000 motor vehicles of 20.2 in 2015 is still relatively high as compared to countries such as Japan which has achieved a low 6.5 (World Health Organisation, 2015). Motorcyclists and elderly jaywalkers were highlighted as key concerns, with motorcycle accidents accounting for more than half of the traffic accidents in 2017 and number of elderly jaywalkers road fatalities on the rise.
Our project aims to provide the public, especially motorists, with more information about the causes of road accidents and how various individuals can do their part to reduce road accidents.
OBJECTIVES
In our project, we would be creating a geovisualisation that is able to achieve the following objectives:
- Gain an overview of traffic accident hotspots
- Explore possible correlations with traffic accidents
- Identify zones which are more prone to accidents
- Recommend additional datasets that should be collected
