Abstract:

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) started developing a Graphical Information System (GIS) in 1980. The system was designed to locate graphically, accidents to the nearest one hundredth of a mile on the State, County, Township and Municipal jurisdictions. The system used the Road Inventory and Skid Inventory information to calculate accident rates and to identify potentially hazardous roadway conditions. This paper describes the variety of applications for the ODOT system.
