摘要: |
In August 1996, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), in cooperation with the Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) and the Omaha Police Department (OPD), initiated a project to evaluate the application of digital camera technology for traffic accident investigation. The effort involved developing a digital camera traffic accident investigation system (DTAIS) and comparing it to the coordinate and total-station-surveying methods of accident investigation. The project was funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Priority Technology Program with matching funds provided by the NDOR, OPD, and UNL. This paper describes the DTAIS and its evaluation. The results of field tests comparing it with the conventional coordinate and total-station-surveying methods of accident investigation are presented. The potential for its implementation by law enforcement agencies is discussed. |
