1.3.1 iRAD Data Transference Workflow

The data transference workflow model adopted in iRAD (Figure 2) is as follows:

1. As soon as an accident is reported, the first responders (Police) will arrive

at the accident scene. The police will use iRAD Application and will record

primary data i.e., accident date & time, GPS location, accident severity,
number of vehicles & people involved (Fatal/Injury) along with relevant

photos and videos of accident scene. The public can also contribute data to
iRAD by reporting details of the accident through the helpline numbers such

as 100, 102, 108. The public can also use road safety applications, public

application, and Sukhad yatra application to report GPS location and
pictures of road quality and the accident scene
