This paper demonstrates a novel methodology for the preliminary examination of pedestrian accident patterns in an urban area. For designing a pedestrian-friendly city, there is a need to understand the accident hotspots and the infrastructure issues that can be resolved by redesigning the streets, roads, and intersections. It is essential to examine all accident hotspots and identify patterns of accidents to plan preventive activities. The paper presents the temporal and spatial analysis results of pedestrian accidents/casualties in the Greater Chennai Corporation area in the period 2017–2021 year. To identify locations with high pedestrian crash density, Kernel methods were applied in Geographical Information Systems (GIS).
