Numetric offers a suite of transportation safety applications, including Crash Query, Safety Analysis, Advanced Network Screening, Network Screening, Dashboards, and Alternative Design. All of these applications are available from a single navigation menu, so you can switch between them without signing in again.
Numetric and AASHTOWare Safety are the same software. State DOTs that license it through AASHTO see AASHTOWare Safety branding on the sign-in page and application headers, and agencies that purchase directly from Numetric see Numetric branding. The applications and navigation work the same way in both.
This article explains how to identify which application you are in, move to a different application, and find and manage the projects saved in each application’s library.
