Abstract

For sustainable transportation and to minimize the life loss, the vehicular accidents should be minimized. This can be achieved by good traffic planning, analysis of accidents and the dissemination of the information to the responsible persons. Due to the development of web GIS, dissemination of spatial information, extracted by map processing tools, have become easy to all levels of society. Web GIS acts as a good interface in between user and GIS, especially when the end user is new in the field of GIS. In the present study, web GIS technology is used to develop an Accident Information System (AIS) for an urban agglomerate and proposed smart city of Dehradun. The traffic accident data was analyzed by making simple queries by considering single parameter like police station wise, year time, hours of the day wise, death and injuries wise. Complex queries were formed by including multiple parameters at the same time. To combine web technology and GIS, an interface was prepared with the help of which query formations are easy and quick. The results obtained are summarized in the form of tables, figures and graphs.
