Lunch & Learn - Road Safety Audit 3D

Wednesday, September 15, 2021 - 12:00 PM

AASHTO’s Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets provides two-dimensional schematic road safety methodologies that have not changed in over 70 years, despite the fact that 3D modeling of roadways is now commonplace. While the Green Book guidelines are fundamental to roadway engineering, they do not take into account many of the environmental and man-made hazards that impact driver safety. Out of this discrepancy, Road Safety Audit 3D was born. 

The Road Safety Audit 3D platform uses a systemic approach to road safety based on precise virtual models of roadway geometry for both designed and existing roads. Data-driven analysis of LiDAR and other 3D scanning technologies is used to identify deficiencies for a variety of safety parameters. Traditional RSA approaches rely solely on historical crash data, showing the WHAT of road safety, but without giving insight as to the physical causes at the root of the numbers. RSA 3D focuses on the WHY, revealing substandard safety-related conditions that underlie crash statistics.
