SafeJourney - A Pedestrian Map using Safety Annotation for Route Determination

When travelling alone in an unknown urban area, pedestrians are exposed to a higher risk of accident or assault. In light of this growing concern, we propose that safety annotation to be included as one of the pedestrian map attributes and using it to recommend a relatively safer route. Unlike motor...
