Literature information systems

If you would like any more information, other than what is available in the library, you can also ask us. SWOV has access to the ITRD (International Research Documentation), TRIS, and TRANSDOC information systems.

 

IRTD

SWOV participates in the ITRD which was set up by the OECD (Organization for Economic Development). In the IRTD file there are about 300,000 descriptions, and every year about 12,000 are added. Most of these are in English; the others are in German, French, and Spanish.

Most of the ITRD descriptions are of publications (and to a lesser extent about current research projects) about road safety transport, and related areas. More than 40 road safety institutes, worldwide, provide the necessary file information.

SWOV provides most of the Netherlands' documental information. Each month, the research results are added to the file.

The complete ITRD file is available on CD-ROM at SWOV, and can be consulted quite easily.

De ITRD English Alphabetical Thesaurus is avaiable online..

 

TRIS and TRANSDOC

The information systems TRIS of the Transportation Research Board (USA) and TRANSDOC of the European Conference of Ministers of Transport, can also be consulted at SWOV.
