Presentation of the global road risk scoring and Q&A.
Evaluate risk in a systematic and comprehensive way
Across 100% of the network — including the 80% that are often neglected
Here’s how practices evolve with SAMRoute:
- Traditionally, road safety intervention is reactive. With SAMRoute, your approach becomes proactive, aiming to anticipate incidents before they occur.
- Today, analyses focus only on critical areas, neglecting the rest of the network. With SAMRoute, the evaluation now covers 100% of the network, offering a complete view.
- Today, road safety management is fragmented and limited by administrative boundaries. With SAMRoute, the analysis is comprehensive and accessible, exceeding administrative boundaries.
- Today, data is often fragmented and hard to compare. With SAMRoute, the data is now complete and comparable.
Now, covers 100% of the infrastructure
Allow analysis before incidents happen
Better the comparability across zones
Features of the SAMRoute platform and its risk score
The SAMRoute score estimates the annual risk of having at least one accident per road segment every 100 meters, globally, in a linear and multifactorial way.

Data layers
An explorer to visualize, filter, summarize, compare
And an API for direct access to data
The SAMRoute user interface (UI) allows users to:
- add and remove layers
- compare two maps side by side
- aggregate data in the form of heatmaps (for certain layers)
- summarize active layers using KPIs (analytics)
- filter by administrative geographic zones
- group geographic areas and compare these groups
- select segments or areas exceeding risk thresholds (clipping)
- measure the risk of a route between point A and point B (routing).

Part of the data used and integrated into SAMRoute
OpenStreetMap: It's the primary data of SAMRoute, which describes the road network topology and the base annotations.
NASA: The gridded population of the world (GPW) layer helps visualize the expected population density
ESA (European Space Agency): The worldcover layer helps visualize the estimated land cover next to the road infrastructure.
Mapillary by META: The street view layer to see street photos as well as detections by pattern recognition (AI).
ONISR (French Gov.): SAMRoute uses that data as accidentology layer and to evaluate the risk score performance.
Rijkswaterstaat (Gov. of The Netherlands): SAMRoute uses that data as accidentology layer for the Netherlands.
United Kingdom: SAMRoute integrates as part of its accidentology layer the historical accident data from the UK.
Global Transit Data (GTFS): As a proof-of-concept (PoC, in France), we have integrated trips and stops from transit data.
Resources and case study
Why road safety remains a major challenge
Because the total cost of road insecurity represents 1.5 to 2% of GDP in Western countries. In France, it's 37.9 billion euros (or 1.7% of GDP), a massive burden.
The French road network spans 1 to 2 million km.
- And across this network, the total cost of road insecurity is 56.2 million euros / year / 100,000 inhabitants (1.7% of GDP).
- Road safety efforts focus on a critical fraction of the network, leaving the rest under-analyzed.
- Administrative boundaries constrain road safety efforts.
- Road safety is traditionally reactive. Accidents are rare events, leading to a lack of data to guide actions.
- Finally, regulations are evolving as the EC 2019/1936 directive mandates proactive evaluation of critical road infrastructure by the end of 2024.

The reasons to select SAMRoute
— Why SAMRoute could be an innovative solution to improve the safety of your organization's transport infrastructure?
Because:
- SAMRoute evaluates 100% of the road network, including often overlooked segments.
- You are not limited by administrative boundaries.
- You stay ahead of new regulations, such as the EC 2019/1936 directive, which mandates proactive road assessment for major roads by 2024.
- By identifying high-risk segments early, you have the chance to avoid human and material costs resulting from accidents.
- The risk score from SAMRoute is linear and explainable, unlike AI models that are non-linear and opaque.
