Better utilizing the available pavement friction, surface texture, roadway
safety data and relevant results, along with other necessary ODOT data sets could result in
significant benefits to reduce traffic fatalities, serious injuries, and traffic delays in Oklahoma. The
geospatial database technology provides an ideal alternative for ODOT to integrate these different
data sets with spatial components to explore the relationship between pavement surface
characteristics and roadway crashes. With the geospatial and statistical analysis tools, the critical
influencing factors contributing to roadway crashes for the selected pavement sections will be
identified. Subsequently, the appropriate safety countermeasures can be applied to improve
roadway safety and further reduce traffic delays. |
