Integrated Highway Safety Information System (HSIS) datasets by means of a Roadway Safety Data Integrator (RSDI) tool.

ABSTRACT: The datasets and tool presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Improving crash predictability of the Highway Safety Manual through optimizing local calibration process" (Dadvar et al., 2020) [1], in which these datasets were used to investigate alternative local calibration methods for the Highway Safety Manual (HSM) [2] local application. The datasets are integrated Highway Safety Information System (HSIS) [3] state-wide rural two-lane, two-way roads (R2U) data from states of Illinois and Washington. The HSIS is a database that maintains motor vehicle crash data, roadway inventory, and traffic volume data for several US states. It is an excellent source of data to highway safety research and can be used to investigate many research questions. H
