Find Out With New Traffic Fatality Maps (video. ITO World maps traffic fatalities so you can see when and where accidents happen.
Ever wonder how safe that street corner is you cross or turn at every day on your way to work? It seems busy, sure, but you’ve never actually seen an accident, much less anyone killed. You might’ve suspected, assuming you’d heard of it, that the information was available in the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) put out by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration but don’t have the time to sift through all their complicated data tables. Well UK-based transport data mavens ITO World has just done the heavy lifting for us, compiling vast amounts of traffic fatality data from multiple websites and putting it into a format that’s as intuitive as Google Maps. It’s the old tables and charts age catching up with the web interface technologies of today. Right now ITO World has created maps for the US and the UK, and are currently working on a map for Canada.

Waking up in the hospital after a heart attack, Bill Davenhall, a health-care manager with the geographic information systems software developer Esri, wondered whether the disease that nearly took his life might have been predicted by the pollution he’d been exposed to since birth.
He put his GIS skills to work, mapping his proximity to coal mining pollution growing up in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Then, he added the Midwestern industrial emissions and Los Angeles smog he breathed regularly in later years. When he cross-referenced those pollutants to their known health risks and mortality data, a connection to his heart troubles emerged. Since then, he has traveled the globe speaking to audiences and advising governments on geo-medicine, an emerging field that uses GIS mapping to correlate environmental conditions to health risks like heart attacks and cancer.
Geo-medicine can zoom in on a patient’s life to create a geographically enhanced medical history. Some doctors are skeptical. HEIMTSA > Home. Integrated Environmental Health Impact Assessment Tool. Health Impact Assessment Toolbox - contacts.
