About Dataset

US-Accidents: A Countrywide Traffic Accident Dataset

Description

This is a countrywide traffic accident dataset, which covers 49 states of the United States. The data is continuously being collected from February 2016, using several data providers, including two APIs which provide streaming traffic event data. These APIs broadcast traffic events captured by a variety of entities, such as the US and state departments of transportation, law enforcement agencies, traffic cameras, and traffic sensors within the road-networks. Currently, there are about 3 million accident--updated records in this dataset.

Content

This dataset has been collected in real-time, using multiple Traffic APIs. Currently, it contains accident data that are collected from February 2016 to Dec 2020 for the Contiguous United States. Check here to learn more about this dataset.

Applications of Dataset

US-Accidents can be used for numerous applications such as real-time accident prediction, studying accident hotspot locations, casualty analysis and extracting cause and effect rules to predict accidents, or studying the impact of precipitation or other environmental stimuli on accident occurrence.
