Description

A considerable amount of transportation-related data exists at the national and state levels which may be of assistance in the evaluation and modification of routing and risk assessment models currently utilized by the Department of Energy transportation Technology Center at Sandia National Laboratories. This information, including the Federally-supported Fatal Accident Reporting System - FARS (US Department of Transportation 1984), National Accident Sampling System - NASS (US Department of Transportation 1987), and Highway Performance Monitoring System - HPMS (Kittell 1984), can be used to evaluate both existing and proposed model applications as well as to formulate strategies for future model and associated data base improvements
