New Format for SWITRS Raw Data
Beginning with first quarter 2002 SWITRS data, there will be a change in format of raw data provided to
SWITRS users.
The Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) has been re-engineered beginning with collisions
dated January 2002. As part of this re-engineering, we have changed the format of the raw data provided
upon request to SWITRS data users.
Beginning with first quarter 2002 data, the raw data will no longer be available in the format previously
provided. The new format is in three separate files in ASCII fixed record length. The three files are the
collision data file, party data file and victim data file. All three files are linked together with the same case ID#
of each collision. The victim data is linked to the collision file by the case ID# and to their respective party by
the party #.
Following is the raw data export layout for this new format. The new format is comma delimited and will be
available for prior years 1993 through 2001 as well as the 2002 and future years.
For any questions regarding this change, contact the Information Services Unit at (916) 375-2850.
