MULTIDISCIPLINARY ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION DATA FILE, 1975

Since 1969, in-depth accident reports generated by Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation (MDAI) teams have been edited and processed for computer storage and retrieval by the Highway Safety Research Institute. This report details the work on this program between April 1975 and April 1976. During this period, accident investigation case studies were edited and formatted into the HSRI-maintained CPIR Revision 3 data sets. In addition, new data sets implemented from the Damage Analysis Supplement, Occupant Supplement, and Air Cushion Restraint System supplement have been created. The report describes the production aspects of the program, the data editing and quality control protocol used in case editing, and the contents of the data files that are constructed from the Annotated Collision Performance and Injury Report (CPIR), Revision 3 and the ACRS supplements. An index of DOT-HS publication numbers is also included.
