Fatal accidents occur frequently on low-volume rural roads, and the accident rates are up to 4 times higher at curves. It is thus of paramount importance to perform road inventory of rural roads to develop safety plans. However, most states in U.S. face a challenge to maintain a database for low-volume rural roads due to limited funds for road inventory. In this paper, we propose to significantly reduce the cost for road inventory specifically focusing on horizontal curve detection by…
