This PR prepares and adds a traffic crash dataset from this study, making it available as a built-in case dataset in the pc package.

Dataset Overview

The dataset covers the Greater Perth Area and integrates spatial, traffic, and socio-demographic variables. Each observation corresponds to a spatial unit with associated attributes.

Variables

The dataset includes the following variables:

  • crash → Traffic crash count (count from crash site point)
  • speed → Average road speed at crash sites (Legal speed limits, unit: km/h)
  • dist → Average distance to nearest traffic signal (unit: meters)
  • trffvol → Estimated averaged regional traffic volume (unit: count/day)
  • walk → Percentage of residents walking to work (unit: %)
  • car → Percentage of residents commuting by car (unit: %)
  • geom → Spatial geometry (polygon features)

Together with the Loess Plateau precipitation–soil moisture–NDVI dataset introduced in PR #41, this dataset forms the core case study collection in the pc package.
