Improving road safety for heavy vehicle operations
Australia's National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) used the Databricks Data + AI Platform to analyze more than 4.5 million monthly heavy-vehicle sightings and build machine learning models, including a fatigue engine and crash prediction model, to detect road safety risks in real time (subsecond reporting) across its national fleet of almost 1 million heavy vehicles. The fatigue engine delivered a 4% increase in yielding high-risk fatigue infringements, and the crash model identified vehicles/operators with a 1-in-38 chance of a fatal or serious incident on any given day.
