Model Inventory of Roadway Elements - MIRE, Version 1.0

Safety data are the key to sound decisions on the design and operation of roadways. Critical safety data include not only crash data, but also roadway inventory data, traffic data, driver history data, citation/adjudication information, and other files. The need for improved and more robust safety data is increasing due to the development of a new generation of safety data analysis tools and methods. The Model Inventory of Roadway Elements (MIRE) Version 1.0 is a listing and accompanying data dictionary of roadway and traffic data elements critical to safety management. It builds upon the initial minimum MIRE listing released in 2007. A MIRE website has been developed to provide additional background information, resources, and discussion Forums. The website is available at http://www.mireinfo.org/.
