This study deals with identifying the accident blackspots and the influencing factors causing
accidents using factored analysis in a medium‐sized city (Tirunelveli) in India. From the
literature review, the geospatial technique to identify the blackspots and the factors causing
accidents was used for analysis. The most influencing factors driving the accidents were
identified and ranked based on the repetitive occurrence of accidents in the blackspot area.
The spearman ranking system showed the correlation among the factors causing accidents …
