SHRP 2 Project Brief: Analyzing Driver Behavior Using Data from the SHRP 2 Naturalistic Driving Study
|
|
Greetings!
SHRP 2 is conducting the largest and most comprehensive naturalistic driving study (NDS) ever undertaken. When complete in early 2014, the NDS data set will contain in excess of 33,000,000 travel miles from some 3,800 vehicle-years of driving--more than 4 petabytes of data. In parallel, the Roadway Information Database (RID) will contain detailed roadway data on about 12,000 centerline miles of highways in and around the study sites, in addition to information on roadway features, crash histories, traffic and weather conditions, work zones, and active safety campaigns in the study areas from state data sources. The NDS and RID data can be linked to associate driving behavior with the roadway environment. This project brief describes how NDS data can be searched. It also provides an overview of three SHRP 2 projects that are analyzing NDS and RID data to develop real-world safety countermeasures.
