1 AASHTO Transportation Safety Information Management System (TSIMS) Prototype Demonstration Briefing

2 Scope of TSIMS Remote Crash Database TSIMS Crash Data Internet Capture Subsystem Forms-based Data Entry Document Scanner Automated Recognition TSIMS Data Translator External System Interface Subsystem TSIMS Information Broker 1 Location Reference Workflow Management Crash Driver Vehicle TSIMS Database Roadway EMS Image Database Data Verification State Reporting TSIMS Reporting Federal Module Reporting Internet Crash Legacy Information Systems Driver Vehicle Roadway EMS High-Hazard Location Analysis TSIMS Data Analysis Module GIS Analysis? Ad Hoc Inquiry Internet File Export 2

3 Mobile Data Capture Support Build on Existing successful Systems, including the Iowa National Model Iowa TraCS TSIMS Interface to support upload of Crash Data from Local Jurisdictions and Law Enforcement Agencies TraCS Laptop Local Database TSIMS Crash Database TSIMS External System Interface 3

4 Crash Report (Paper) Processing Image Pre- Processing & Enhancement Bar Code Recognition Document Scanner Workflow Management Form Recognition Intelligent Character Recognition TSIMS Crash Database 4

5 TSIMS Image Processing -Scan Scan paper documents Import images or faxes Batch/transaction files Automatically adds to a JobFlow Distributed scanning 5

6 TSIMS Image Processing - Quality Check Image Pre-Processing Processing provides the ability to check the quality of images - automatically checks Page skew Poor contrast Holes and bent corners Damaged or torn pages Speckles and black borders Marks image for manual review 6

7 TSIMS Image Processing - Form Identification Eliminates manual pre-sorting Associates production images with a data form Identifies attachments 7

8 TSIMS Image Processing - Enhancement Enhancement/Forms removal Deskew at the zone level Forms removal at the zone level Reconstructs characters Enhances Dot Matrix Example: 8

9 TSIMS Data Capture Character Recognition Preferred solution May be used to capture all or selected fields OCR/ICR Accuracy is Significantly Enhanced by Discrete, Verifiable Field Values Caere M/Text for OCR Neural network based ICR & OMR 9

10 TSIMS Data Capture Automated Recognition Mark-Sense Recognition OMR recognition on dropout and non-dropout mark sense Single and multiple boxes VisionShape Barcode recognition Codabar,, Code 128, Code 39, Code 2 of 5, UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8, EAN-13, PostNet & Code 93 10

11 TSIMS Data Capture - Key From Image 11

12 TSIMS Data Capture Data Verification Reject repair Key verification Validation/correction Single or multi-pass operation - based on operator skill set or experience level 12

13 TSIMS Data Capture Export to Database Once All Data Capture Tasks Have Been Completed the Subsystem Exports the Crash Data to the TSIMS Database Source Document Images May Also Be Exported to the TSIMS Image & Document Management Subsystem 13

14 TSIMS Data Warehouse & External System Interface Subsystem Related Data is then Retrieved from the State s DMV (Driver & Vehicle Files) and the Roadway Inventory Legacy Data is Translated into Standard TSIMS Format and Posted to the TSIMS Data Warehouse 14

15 Web-based based Data Capture Single Form Definition Multiple User Access Methods Form Definition & Business Rules Common to Local and WAN Environment 15

16 Crash Location & Referencing Prototype will show the entry of new crashes by either: PennDOT s Linear Referencing System or Route GPS Software will take data from input screen and reference the crashes along road network and show on a map Data will be stored in database and will be dynamically available for GIS-based analysis tools 16

17 Legacy Crash System Support TSIMS Data Warehouse may be used in conjunction with an Existing State Crash Records System Legacy Crash Database TSIMS Crash Database Data Entry Station TSIMS External System Interface TSIMS Data Translator 17

18 GIS-based Data Analysis Display and Manipulation of Map Features Query and Map Review of Data in TSIMS Data Warehouse Creation and Display of Thematic Maps Interoperability with Desktop Tools (word processing, spreadsheets, etc.) Spatial analysis (buffer zones, proximity analysis) Dynamic Segmentation of distributed safety data High end analysis to determine hazardous locations Review of associated documents Interoperability with LRS tools 18
