Use and Modification of Default SPFs in the IHSDM Mike Dimaiuta LENDIS Corporation
Options for using SPFs in IHSDM Use Default SPFs “as is” Calibrate models, including SPFs Enter and use “your own” SPFs
Use Default SPFs “as is” Run IHSDM Crash Prediction Module (CPM) without calibrating (i.e. with calibration factors = 1.0)
Calibrate Models / SPFs Follow HSM Part C calibration procedure and enter factors via IHSDM Administration Tool
Enter and use “your own” SPFs Via the IHSDM Administration Tool: “Crash Prediction” > “Model Data Sets”
Enter and use “your own” SPFs Capabilities: For all SPFs, can change: Regression coefficients Overdispersion parameters Limitation: Can not change SPF functional form
Enter and use “your own” SPFs After editing data, save as a new Model Data Set “configuration” and select when running CPM
Enter and use “your own” SPFs Example: Multilane Rural H’way Estimate crashes using defaults Enter “My State’s SPFs” into Administration Tool Run CPM with modified SPFs to generate and compare results
Compare Results Estimated Total crashes using default SPFs: 27.84 Estimated Total crashes using “My State’s” SPFs: 27.62
Summary No requirement for agencies to develop their own SPFs for IHSDM, but… IHSDM provides a mechanism for agencies to edit all default SPFs (coefficients and overdispersion parameters only) Either way can produce good results!
