Project Summary

The project focuses tentatively on the exploration of relationships between crash reports, traffic information and weather data on some highways in Oregon. Getting the correlation between these main components can impact planning and response to crashes for an individual driver and the transportation system as a whole. We hope to identify locations, times, and conditions that hotspots, that is, with a higher likelihood of crashes and impact on traffic flow after crashes. This study is beneficial in diverse ways. Knowing peak periods and hotspots would resource allocation planning, emergency services, safety and regulation, and also any future volume expansion needs. Also, incorporating the results of the analysis may improve the richness of the "time-to-travel" feed available for drivers by providing safety information. We plan to use a combination of data for this project from sources such as PORTAL, for traffic information; ODOT, for crash reports and traffic incident reports; and Dark Sky, for weather information. Data preparation - cleaning, wrangling, and analysis - will be done using Pandas and some python scripts for portability. We’ll use Tableau to find interesting relationships and visualization.
