Tools for surveillance of cycling safety

Urban Systems是主动交通规划和设计领域的全球领导者。Urban的一个重要组成部分 系统的工作是帮助政府设计积极的交通基础设施。大量的投资 在自行车基础设施，客户往往会受益于方法，以评估新的影响， 基础设施演进例如，最好能够报告基础设施建设的统计数据， 改变了自行车安全，因为与安全相关的问题是实现增加的目标的主要障碍 乘客量该项目的目标是开发新的技术，可以转化为客户服务， 监测自行车基础设施建设对骑车人安全的影响。基于文献 审查可用的方法，以空间明确的监督，我们将定制GIS和空间统计 用于自行车安全监测的工具。开发的方法将在可修改的 用于集成到城市系统的客户服务工作流程的软件。开发的工具将使城市 向现有客户提供新服务的系统，也将有能力展示 城市系统公司在不列颠哥伦比亚省的维多利亚的一个试点项目中进行的设计工作。

Urban Systems is a world leader in active transportation planning and design. A key component of Urban System's work is helping governments design active transportation infrastructure. With massive investments being made in cycling infrastructure, clients would often benefit from approaches to evaluate the impact of new infrastructure. For instance, it is ideal to be able to report statistics on how infrastructure construction has changed cycling safety, as safety related concerns are a primary barrier to meeting targets of increased ridership. The project goal is to develop new technology that can be translated into a client service for surveillance of change in rider safety as a result of cycling infrastructure construction. Based on a literature review of available approaches to spatially explicit surveillance, we will customize GIS and spatial statistical tools for application to cycling safety surveillance. Developed methods will be implemented in modifiable software for integrating into Urban Systems' client services workflows. The developed tools will enable Urban Systems to offer new services to existing clients and will also have the capacity to demonstrate the benefit of design work being conducted by Urban Systems in a pilot project in Victoria, British Columbia.
