Association analysis of high-low outlier road intersection crashes involving motorcycles that resulted in injuries within the CoCT in 2017, 2018 and 2019

This dataset provides comprehensive information on road intersection crashes involving motorcycles (Motor tricycle, Motorcycle: under 125cc, Motorcycle: Above 125cc, Quadru-cycle) that have resulted in injuries recognised as "high-low" outliers within the City of Cape Town. It includes detailed records of all intersection crashes and their corresponding crash attribute combinations, which were prevalent in at least 5% of the total "high-low" outlier motorcycle road intersection crashes resulting in injuries for the years 2017, 2018 and 2019.The dataset is meticulously organised according to support metric values, ranging from 0,10 to 0,202, with entries presented in descending order.

Data Specifics

Data Type: Geospatial-temporal categorical data

File Format: Excel document (.xlsx)

Size: 38,8 KB

Number of Files: The dataset contains a total of 426 association rules

Date Created: 23rd May 2024

Methodology

Data Collection Method: The descriptive road traffic crash data per crash victim involved in the crashes was obtained from the City of Cape Town Network Information

Software: ArcGIS Pro, Python

Processing Steps: Following the spatio-temporal analyses and the derivation of "high-low" outlier fishnet grid cells from a cluster and outlier analysis, all the road intersection crashes involving a motorcycle resulting in injuries that occurred within the "high-low" outlier fishnet grid cells were extracted to be processed by association analysis. The association analysis of these crashes was processed using Python software and involved the use of a 0,10 support metric value. Consequently, commonly occurring crash attributes among at least 10% of the "high-low" outlier road intersection motorcycle crashes resulting in injuries were extracted for inclusion in this dataset.
