Can someone talk to me about how (if at all) your DOT is sharing crash data externally? Links to any external applications would be helpful. Trying to convince our department to do something similar to Utah (sharing aggregated number of crashes over stretches of roads).

We are in the process of growing this but currently you can view last 3 years on our networks in our TIMS application. From this link at the bottom under Safety select the year and then in the blue bar by map you can run various queries against it. https://gis.dot.state.oh.us/tims/map

We are working to roll nearly all of our crash data and front end analysis work into a separate piece of this app (pending summer release time) that will provide not only more in depth public facing access but will also have secured content for our internal statewide stakeholders.

Our biggest issue is always ensuring we've fully scrubbed out any PII or SPI sorts of data and only release what's determined to be publicly allowable.

Funny-  as I read your post, I was thinking 'she needs to see UDOTs stuff'....  (I'm in Utah and have worked with the folks there...)

Elizabeth,  You should take a look at Open Data,  It is part of your ArcGIS Online subscription and provides you with a mechanism to share your data with the public

We can talk more offline if you want to look into how to deploy Open Data.

DC DOT is currently sharing crash data to the public. We have redacted PII and have attempted to provide a decent summary of relevant attributes. It’s not perfect, but very useful to the general public.

Currently, the update frequency is twice a year or so; in the next week we plan to change this to nightly updates.
