Abstract

Road accidents pose a significant threat to public health, resulting in millions of injuries and fatalities annually. With an estimated 1.2 million lives lost and 20 to 50 million people injured each year, the escalating trend of traffic accidents demands urgent attention. To address this issue, specialists utilize advanced algorithms such as random forests to analyze historical road crash data, aiming to predict accident hotspots. By identifying patterns and trends within this data, our study aims to uncover the root causes of accidents, enabling proactive prevention measures. Through a user-friendly web application, individuals can access real-time information about accident-prone areas within a 250-meter radius of their location. Leveraging data analysis and visualization tools like Power BI, Excel, and SQL, we pinpoint deficiencies in the current road infrastructure and collaborate with authorities to formulate targeted safety strategies and regulations. Our goal is to enhance road safety, reduce accidents, and save lives.

Keywords: Big data, structured query language (SQL), Power BI, road accident, leaflet js, HTML, cascading style sheet (CSS), severity prediction, random forest, prediction, road map
