Near Miss Identification Safety Systems (N-MISS)


FDOT is implementing the N-MISS project to quickly demonstrate tangible safety and operational improvements at intersections. The N-MISS system will leverage both traditional and emerging technologies to identify near-miss traffic incidents, collect, store, and analyze near miss incidents. Risk profiles based on near-miss events will be generated for project intersections. The project will also develop recommendations for implementable countermeasures based on the nature of near-miss events. The overarching goal of this project is to use the frequency and nature of near miss events as proxy for safety and pro-actively avoid crashes by implementing appropriate measures. The project will be implemented at 26 intersections on the state roads in City of Lakeland, Seminole County and City of West Palm Beach.
