Assessing Bicycle Safety in Multiple Networks with Different Data Models

Year: 2015

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Safety is a key issue in the context of bicycle promotion strategies. Because such initiatives rely on a sound data basis, the road network’s quality is usually assessed with a focus on bicycle safety. In this paper the indicator-based assessment model is presented as an efficient alternative to commonly used assessment models. The applicability of this GIS approach is demonstrated in a case study, where the model is applied on two different, but adjacent network data sets with diverse data models.
