CYCLANDS: CYCling geo-Located AccideNts, their Details and Severities

Abstract

Several cities and national authorities across the globe publish records on road accidents and crashes. This data is vital for road safety analysis, enabling researchers to develop models to understand how different factors impact the frequency and severity of accidents. However, researchers studying cycling safety face additional challenges as datasets containing solely cycling accidents are scarce, usually in the country's original language, may contain errors, among others. We publish CYCLANDS, a curated collection of 30 datasets on cycling crashes to lower the barrier in objective cycling research comprising nearly 1.6M cycling accidents. All observations include the severity of the accident. This collection fosters the worldwide study of cycling safety by providing a testbed for researchers to develop tools and models for cycling safety analysis, ultimately improving the safety of those who cycle.
