Abstract

In an emerging nation like India, with advances in transport technology and also a growth in the count of automobiles altogether, road accidents are increasing. Such technological advancement has made traffic risks even greater. Vehicle growth and high population density are among the major causes of traffic hazards. Minimizing traffic possibilities is among the major problems, as the majority of deaths are caused by road accidents globally. There have been plenty of approaches introduced to avoid these road deaths, such as creating specific laws and regulations. Yet most of them did not manage to avoid injuries. This paper offers a clever method for preventing the road accidents for the health of human life. A few of the solutions proposed in this paper is the use of Geo fencing technique as well as spatial road accident analysis using ArcGIS. There are two phases to the process - Accident prone zone precaution that could alert the driver before entering to the prone zone by sending alert notification using Geo-fencing module is to send the warning audible alert to the driver about the accident prone zone when entering before 500 m of the hotspot. Second phase - Accident location is carried out using GPS for spatial analysis by showing hotspots on the map using ArcGIS. On this basis, with the intention of minimising the accident rate, this study provides recommendations for raising awareness amongst people about road and traffic safety.
