[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-joo] The Korea Road Traffic Authority held a final report meeting on the 28th at the Daejeon Regional Meteorological Administration for the project "Establishment of a Traffic Accident Analysis Convergence System Based on Meteorological Information."

This project is aimed at building a system that utilizes meteorological data in the traffic accident analysis work conducted by the Korea Road Traffic Authority in the era of big data. It has been jointly promoted with the Daejeon Regional Meteorological Administration for eight months since March of this year.

The meteorological information-based traffic accident analysis convergence system features precise meteorological data collection at traffic accident sites and various functions such as an AI-based detailed fog map.

The Authority expects this project to serve as an opportunity to conduct more in-depth traffic safety projects by establishing road environment improvement measures that combine scientific traffic accident cause analysis and meteorological impact analysis results.

Lee Joo-min, Director of the Korea Road Traffic Authority, said, "The establishment of the traffic accident analysis convergence system based on meteorological information is one of the Authority's 100 key tasks for 2021," adding, "Through the construction of this system, it will greatly contribute to pursuing future value innovation of the institution and creating a safe road traffic environment."
