Modeling animal-vehicle collisions considering animal-vehicle interactions.
Animal-Vehicle Collisions (AVCs) have been a major safety problem in the United States over the past decades. Counter measures against AVCs are urgently needed for traffic safety and wildlife conservation. To better understand the AVCs, a variety of data analysis and statistical modeling techniques have been developed. However, these existing models seldom take human factors and animal attribut...
متن کاملUse of Vehicle-Mounted Heat Detection Systems to Reduce Animal-Vehicle Collisions final 5-27-16
The Caltrans Division of Research, Innovation and System Information (DRISI) receives and evaluates numerous research problem statements for funding every year. DRISI conducts Preliminary Investigations on these problem statements to better scope and prioritize the proposed research in light of existing credible work on the topics nationally and internationally. Online and print sources for Pre...
متن کاملModeling animal-vehicle collisions using diagonal inflated bivariate Poisson regression.
Two types of animal-vehicle collision (AVC) data are commonly adopted for AVC-related risk analysis research: reported AVC data and carcass removal data. One issue with these two data sets is that they were found to have significant discrepancies by previous studies. In order to model these two types of data together and provide a better understanding of highway AVCs, this study adopts a diagon...
متن کاملWildlife-Vehicle Collisions – Effective Mitigation Strategies USING SPECIALISED TUNNELS TO REDUCE HIGHWAY MORTALITY OF AMPHIBIANS
Previous studies identified roads as a source of habitat fragmentation and mortality for amphibians in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada, thus reducing the effects of roads became an important management issue. Vehicle traffic resulted in appreciable mortality of the Linnet Lake population of long-toed salamanders when adult and juvenile animals moved between this breeding site and ...
متن کاملModeling Multiple–Vehicle Property Damage Collisions in Urban Signalized Intersections
Development of disaggregate models for estimating different property damage collision type frequencies in urban intersections has rarely been studied, particularly in Iran. It seems very little research work being implemented for studying the effect factors on collision type frequency at intersections. The main objective of this paper is to develop suitable statistical models to predict types o...
