This paper suggests a PDA-based scientific traffic accident investigation system in order to improve the reliability and accuracy of a traffic accident investigation procedure. In order to fulfill this objective, a standard accident sheet with 32 elements to be used in the PDA system was developed through a reference review and an expert survey. Using this information, the required functionalities and realization procedure of the PDA system for traffic accident investigation were presented including mobile network environment and GPS/GIS design. A prototype of PDA system is presented and more improved and efficientmanagement is highly expected by applying the system developed in this paper.

Recently, information-Ievel of the people has been increased with growing IT cutting-edge technology. There is a trend to combine these achievements with information-technology, ubiquitous technology, and mobile technology in the field of transportation. Along with this trend, a PDA-based traffic accident investigation device was developed. This paper established the evaluation method of feasibility test on the PDA device, and performed qualitative and quantitative evaluation as compared with the current practice (manual investigation). Test results showed that traffic accident investigation using the PDA device was faster and more convenient than manual investigation. It is expected that the reliability of accident investigation will be improved by applying this tool with minor modifications.

Recently Digital-TachoGraph(DTG) was mounted mandatorily in commercial vehicles(Taxi, Bus, etc.). DTG records accurate and detailed information of the running state of vehicles related to traffic accident, such as Time, Distance, Velocity, RPM, Brake ON/OFF, GPS, Azimuth, Acceleration. Thus those standardized data can play an important role in traffic accident investigation and reconstruction. To develope the accurate and objective method using the DTG data for the reconstruction of traffic accident, we had conducted several tests such as driving test, high speed circuit test, braking test, slalom test at Korea Automobile Testing & Research Institute(KATRI), and collision test at Korea Automobile insurance repair Research and Training center(KART) with the vehicle equipped with several DTG. Development of the program which enables the reading and analysis of the DTG data was followed. In the experiments, we have found velocity error, RPM error, brake signal error and azimuth error in several products, and also non-continuous event data. The cause of these errors was deduced to be related to the correction factor, the durability of electronic parts and the algorithm.

This study was initiated to improve of the defect investigation method using event data recorders (EDR) and suggested a solution through the regulation and system analysis of EDR. The EDR data has been used for various purposes such as the vehicle defect investigation and the traffic accident investigation. However the EDR regulation has not been updated since the implementation in 2012. "Trigger Threshold" can be used to analyze a single accident such as the frontal crash, the side crash, and the rollover. In the case of a complex accident in which a rollover accident and a crash accident occur simultaneously, it is difficult to analyze a complex accident due to current "Trigger Threshold". This study proposed the method of separating the "Trigger Threshold" into a crash accident and a rollover accident so that accidents can be analyzed using the EDR data even when a complex accident occurs. In addition, it proposed the improvement method to quickly use the data of EDR in accident reconstruction software.

The objective of this study is to suggest the process and method of local accident investigation for local authorities with a view to efficient and effective managing traffic accidents. With a project city selected accident-type maps, accident lists, accident diagrams, priority of black-spots/-lengths, site visits, remedial measures, opportunity costs, monitoring etc. are taken into consideration, by using accident data in the last 3 years. Analyzed are accident savings to be expected when applying technical, organizational, and administrative processes attached to local accident investigation.

Traffic accident number is decreasing tendency every year. But, large size accident or hit-and-run case increases continuously. As well as, traffic accident causes real form of accident ambit thats why, social expense rises. For that reason we are going to present our plan that can prevent traffic accident when traffic accident occurs, we presented our idea that can arbitrate traffic accident quickly. Driver can know more correctly traffic circumstance through hearing and sight by using DMB. Finally, we suggested plan that supply traffic information that is more effective by TPEG.

Nowdays, in order to reduce recent traffic accident the traffic accident research which uses IT techniques is plentifully advanced. But, when running away traffic accident occurs, the assault vehicle the searching is difficult very from site. Respected a traffic accident investigation scientification RFID techniques and type expense to use an ubiquitous theory constructs the traffic accident preventive system which is efficient the algorithm which proposed. Especially in this paper, It simulated that every hour changes road follows produces the optimum traffic safety speed which in situation and weather condition.

The EDR(Event Data Recorder) is a part of the ACU(Airbag Control Unit) functions mounted on a vehicle. EDR data have pre-crash data and post-crash data. Pre-crash data are recorded within 5 sec from time zero(AE) with 0.5 sec resolution, and reveal vehicle speed, engine rotation speed, throttle opening, brake pedal operation, acceleration pedal position and steering angle, etc. Using this EDR data, the investigation of a traffic accident can become more objective and scientific. Crash tests of three vehicles equipped with EDR function had been performed successfully. Evaluation of EDR data reliability had also been performed using Vbox and PC-Crash's sequence table function. Based on the results, we could confirm EDR data's reliability and availability for Traffic Accident Analysis by the series of this process.

In order to reduce a recent traffic accident, the traffic accident research has been studied using IT technique. But, when running away traffic accident it occurs, it is difficult to find the assault vehicle. In this paper, to solve these problems, if traffic accident will happen, The RFID reader will be able to recognize a license plate number automatically. Moreover, when the traffic accident occurs from the Internet base which uses the PDA the driver traffic accident site data and driver human fact it will be able to transmit in the police station or the insurance company. From the simulation result, it confirms that when passage vehicle speed is low speed above 70% it will be able to recognize the license plate number.

A diagram has been annexed to the spot inspection record of the traffic accident were drawn up with measuring-tape heretofor. However, conventional reduction method have been usually contained the various problems according to the social development. To solve these problems, it was performed that photogrammetric method are measured 3-D coordinate of needed points and precised plotting of traffic accident spot investigation. Also, they have produced some good effects on speedy spot investigation and settlement of traffic stagnation. Because semi-metric camera and MR2 system are utilize for low cost, simple operation and almost unnecessary for control point surveying, these fittings being at the close-range photogrammetry will be extremely powerful over versatile fields like traffic accident in police.
