DREAMi

Period

1 December 2009–30 October 2013

Project manager

Jonas Bärgman

This project aims at developing the field operational test (FOT) naturalistic driving study (NDS) analysis through international collaboration in two separate sub-projects (SeMiFOT2 and DREAMi). DREAMi is a method and feasibility study that focuses on the modification to and application of the DREAM methodology to incidents, and on conducting a first step comparison with the DREAM analysis of accidents.
