TIMS

Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS)

TIMS is a web-based data query and download application developed to display pin maps in Google Maps, using the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) collision data. A second application was designed and applied to provide a more map-centric experience with other types of data layers and spatial analysis capabilities typically seen in a Geographic Information System (GIS), which is all available to the public.

Collision statistics you can create tables and graphs for, map or download the raw data:

  • Geography
  • Severity
  • Type
  • By Day of Week and Time
  • By Primary Collision Factor Violation
  • Victim demographics
  • Victim degree of injury
  • Victim role
  • Use of safety equipment
  • Pedestrian collision classification and descriptions
