CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]It touches on the development of real time analytical accident avoidance technology systems, transport information systems, and introduces the notion of highly automated accident analysis and policy response tools. Details of data analysis tools in particular those used in computational geography is given in the chapter 3. Back to this chapters section 2 is concerned with reviewing literature about the geography of road accidents incidence, where several sections of Whitelegg 1986 are quoted. As ... Continue reading---
