Extracting road features and analyzing accidents are very important
contemporary issues for road construction and determining the road safety on the road.
The purpose of this research Project is to develop a methodology to
obtain the geometric design of roads from images and to know the road network as an important part of road safety analysis.
The research Project procedure is was to extract design road
features. This will be done by differentiating types of curves specially spiral curve. The project is a complementary part to a previous work which focused on straight and simple curves. The next step objective of this project is to find a relationship between the geometric design of roads and road safety and road accidents.
The integration between Methods which will be used in this research
are Remote Sensing and GIS will be used as key element in this project..
The integration between Remote Sensing and GIS are was used as tool to the methods which will help reach to the research target. Also, this project will provide integration between Remote Sensing and GIS.
The importance of this research project is to develop new detailed
road maps which can assist road safety agents and guide the road designer to control and enhance road designing and improve road safety and road safety analysis.
