This document provides an overview of the Common Accident Data Set (CADaS) project. It discusses the CADaS data model and the 5-step process for loading country data into CADaS. An update on the status of loading data from different countries is given. The document demonstrates CADaS and related data in Business Objects XI, with examples of error reports, data availability analyses, and accessing accident data. Countries are encouraged to participate in CADaS to improve road safety data harmonization across Europe.

3.  Introduction
Common Accident Data Set :
to replace CARE system and correct its
weakness (11/2010)
by improving the compatibility of road
accident data throughout Europe
by harmonising variables and values with a
common definition

5.  Loading CADaS : 5 steps
Step 1 The CADaS team send a draft of the mapping
Country data ↔ CADaS model (for each variable)
Step 2 The country send back the 4 data files
(accident, road, traffic_unit and person) in the
CADaS format
Step 3 The CADaS team pre-load the 4 data files for
checks and validation
Step 4 Partnership work is needed to improve the
correctness compared with the reference data
Step 5 After final validation, the CADaS team upload
the data in CADaS and send quick check report
