Spatial-spatial analysis of pedestrian traffic accidents

Vehicle accidents with pedestrians are considered a serious threat to human life, and identifying the accident-prone points of pedestrian traffic accidents is very important in order to manage the traffic safety of this vulnerable group. Therefore, the aim of this research is spatial-spatial analysis of pedestrian traffic accidents.

The present study was written using a descriptive-documentary method and with an applied nature, with the aim of identifying environmental factors and their effect on the occurrence of pedestrian traffic accidents, modeling and predicting the occurrence of said accidents. In order to collect the necessary statistics and information, the library method was used, and Geoda and ARCGIS software were used to analyze the spatial data.

The research findings show the existence of a cluster pattern in the spatial distribution of pedestrian traffic accidents. These accidents have been distributed in the direction of southwest-northeast geography, with the center of gravity in the central areas of Tehran.

The main foci of pedestrian traffic accidents, mostly corresponding to the geographical location of highways in Tehran, including Azadegan highway (Saeedi bridge area, Kazemi bridge, in front of Tara Bar Central), Imam Reza highway (A.S.), Aghanoor square and Afsarieh bridge, Babaei highway area Astakhar Bridge, the intersection of the streets of the central areas of Tehran, Imam Ali (AS) highway and Basij highway, both in terms of the frequency of pedestrian accidents and the severity of accidents leading to death and injury, are among the most dangerous areas with very high density.
