The analysis and visualization of spatial data have become important in the decision-making process, both for the institutions and for individuals. The data related to road accident occurrence has been published in tabular form and they have rarely been geo-referenced whose form is well suitable for spatial visualization. In Brazil road transportation has been widely used. However, the infrastructure does not meet the demand for quality and safety and then accident´s rates concern the whole society and also the transport security managers. The road accident causative factors are the conditions of the road, the weather, the vehicle, and the driver. Good engineering projects, effective law and its reinforcement, and the triad education, culture and general and scientific information can help minimize the risks of road accidents. Besides projecting, constructing, and maintaining safe roads, the engineers are responsible for the road safety management, among other duties, for what they demand the statistical data of accidents to be properly treated and analyzed. There is here a piece of effective contribution of cartographic engineering for a geographical construction of social interest. The cartographic sciences, plus the geographic information systems (GIS), can contribute to the georeferenced information production related to critical sectors of the roads so as to serve as an aid for both authorities (institutionally) and conductors (individual level) in their decision-making process. Building a geospatial database of traffic accidents is an essential support for understanding the spatial distribution of these events that are demanding a scientific analysis. This thesis presents the development of the research project from the conception until the implementation of the WebSIG/SV...
