West-Central Ohio Injury Surveillance System
10-County system sponsored by
Lima-Allen County Regional Planning Commission
TSASS acted as facilitator for the start-up and
operation of an Injury Surveillance System intended to support injury
prevention program data needs for a 10-county area of west-central Ohio.
This project was begun in early 1998, going operational on January 1, 1999
with the processing of hospital emergency room data from participating
hospitals. By the end of calendar 1999, the Injury Surveillance System
joined traffic crash data, emergency room data, EMS run data,
and crime data into a GIS system to allow identification of injury
patterns and trends. This project was sponsored by the Lima-Allen County
Regional Planning Commission as part of it's NHTSA-sponsored Safe
Communities Program.
Northern Ohio Injury Surveillance
System
17-County system sponsored by Children's Hospital Medical Center
of Akron
TSASS was also the facilitator for the startup of an
Injury Surveillance System for a 17-county area of northern Ohio. This
system officially started-up during the first quarter of calendar 1999 to
coincide with the start-up of Ohio's mandatory reporting of hospital
emergency room trauma to the Ohio Department of Public Safety. This
project was sponsored by the Children's Hospital Medical
Center of Akron with funding provided by a group of northern Ohio Safe
Community Programs, as well as local injury prevention foundation money.

Management System
An AASHTOWare Joint Software
Development Project
TSASS provided facilitator services to the American
Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) in the
definition and development of software that is part of the AASHTOWare
suite of programs. This software provides state and local
governmental agencies with an interface between a wide range of
transportation safety data capture and analysis tools, as well as legacy
data systems within the agency, while providing a common interface for the
sharing of application tools and data.
Roadway Inventory and Linear Referencing System Standard
An AASHTO Standards Development Project
As a cooperative effort between FHWA and AASHTO, and in
support of the TSIMS effort, a project was formed to develop a
standard for roadway inventory and linear referencing systems. This
project, lead by AASHTO with funding support from FHWA, relies upon an
advisory group from various state, federal and local agencies around the
U.S. to provide guidance and consensus to the development effort. At
key points within the project, open meetings where others with
an interest in the effort were given the opportunity to address the working
group.
