Crash Data & Recovery Analytics

Now that most vehicles are equipped with onboard computer systems that control many aspects of operation, crash data is more accessible than ever before. When investigating the cause of an accident, crash data retrieval has become a critical tool. Much like the data extracted from airplanes after a crash, the vehicle’s “black box” can provide vital insights into the moments leading up to a crash, including speed, braking patterns, and other key factors.

This crash data recorder is instrumental in determining the cause of a crash and offers an objective perspective that can help pinpoint who might be at fault. Whether you’re working with a crash expert to analyze the data or need specialized edr data retrieval near me, these records provide invaluable evidence in accident investigations.

Additionally, even in cases where data recovery is difficult due to damage, data recovery from crashed hard disk technology can sometimes retrieve critical information from compromised systems. With Lauth Investigations International, you can trust that our team has the expertise to uncover the crucial data needed to solve your case.

Black box data types:

• Speed
• Acceleration, & deceleration rates 
• Brake use
• Occupancy arrangement 
• Restraint usage
• Order & direction of impact 
• Steering pattern 
• Impact severity 

Our team of intelligence analysts have diverse skillsets and diagnostic tools to probe black box data and document all findings for our clients following a vehicle crash. Because our team has the highest standards of due diligence, clients can rest assured that all information is verified and cross-referenced for the most fortified level of integrity. We compile comprehensive, detailed reports so clients can properly prepare for any subsequent litigation as a result of the investigation.  

Traffic accident reconstruction

The same “black box” data recovery methodology used in determining the cause of a crash can also be applied to traffic accident reconstruction. While the factors in traffic accident reconstruction are very complex (physics, vehicle stats, mathematics, and evidence documentation), our data analysts and private investigators have the training and insight to provide crucial context to the incident.  

Traffic reconstruction investigation process

Resourcing – Our private investigators obtain the Traffic Collision Report and photograph the accident site where the collision took place for further analysis. Other documents that may be procured during this stage are witness statements, medical records, autopsy reports, and photograph any injuries that might have occurred as a result of the accident.  

Vehicle inspection – Photographs of the vehicle can only go so far when it comes to getting the full picture, so our investigators also inspect any and all vehicles involved in the crash. Inspecting the vehicle itself can provide crucial insight into the structural damage of the vehicle and physical reference points for analyzing photographs of the accident.  

Data analysis – Combined with evidence gathered at the scene or just after the incident, our data analysts review any and all information that can be recovered from a vehicle’s proverbial “black box” and can enter this information into digital reconstruction software that will assist investigators in reaching a scientific solution.
