Abstract
The dataset consists of survey data on pedestrian crosswalk usage behavior in high-density urban areas of a developing country, specifically collected from Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh. Data were gathered through a questionnaire survey conducted at twelve key locations, covering eight attributes related to crosswalk behavior and the demographic details of respondents. The survey yielded 682 valid responses, focusing on factors such as the suitability of crosswalk locations, guard rails, and lighting. The dataset is structured to support analyses using supervised machine learning techniques, facilitating reproducibility, secondary analysis, and policy development for pedestrian safety improvements. Furthermore, the dataset can be reused for cross-validation of future studies, comparison with pedestrian behavior in similar urban settings, and the development of predictive models to enhance pedestrian infrastructure in other developing regions.
期刊介绍:
Data in Brief provides a way for researchers to easily share and reuse each other''s datasets by publishing data articles that: -Thoroughly describe your data, facilitating reproducibility. -Make your data, which is often buried in supplementary material, easier to find. -Increase traffic towards associated research articles and data, leading to more citations. -Open up doors for new collaborations. Because you never know what data will be useful to someone else, Data in Brief welcomes submissions that describe data from all research areas.
