Some local agencies have utilized the KARS software. A method to extract the KARS accident data and have it displayed on a computer generated map was the essence of the study. It was determined from research that a geographical information system (GIS) would best present the KARS data spatially. The capability of a GIS program for various types of accident data analysis was an important factor in determining the type of mapping program used in the prototype. 收起
