Abstract:

Information exchange and interoperability is critical to any successful project or task. Currently, XML provides the means necessary to ensure data interoperability and simple means for its exchange. This work presents a file format based on an XML structure for storing the results of road safety audits. The format presented is capable of storing photographs of the different features identified during the audit process along with attributes and position information for each of the features. A software application prototype is developed to allow the visualization of the findings using a map-based interface. The safety audit data used can be generated by extending the capabilities of existing software, capable of performing virtual safety audits, to report its findings using the proposed file format.
