Transport Safety Observatory

The Transport Safety Observatory is a key analytical enabler within NTSC, serving as a centralized platform to collect, integrate, and analyze transport safety data from all modes. Its purpose is to deliver statistical insights and reliable performance indicators that support effective national safety policy and informed institutional decisions.

Observatory Functions

The Observatory is responsible for:

Aggregating data from operators across land, aviation, marine, and railway sectors

Documenting major accidents and violations in a standardized database

Analyzing temporal and spatial trends in incidents

Issuing national safety KPIs benchmarked against global standards

Providing interactive dashboards for relevant stakeholders

Data Components

Data handled by the Observatory includes:

Details of major accidents and related operational metrics

Operator data: transport volume, compliance, reported major incidents

Geographic mapping of major accident locations

Follow-up on implementation of NTSC recommendations

Indicators of response delays and recurring risks
