This repository provides aggregated indicators derived from Thailand’s official Injury Surveillance data (Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health) for calendar year 2018.

All outputs are privacy-preserving aggregates; individual-level records are not included.

  • age_bins_2018.csv — Cases by age group.
  • sex_2018.csv — Cases by sex.
  • mode_mix_bkk_2018.csv — Mode / road-user mix for Bangkok.

  • qa_year_counts_2018.csv — Year-level row counts (QA).

Source Data

Source dataset (not redistributed here):

The original dataset remains under its own terms and conditions. This repository only provides derived aggregates.

Methodology (summary)

  • Filtered to events in 2018.
  • Robust date parsing with support for Thai formats and Buddhist Era → Gregorian conversion.
  • Records with invalid or missing core fields are excluded from aggregates.
  • Aggregations computed by:
    • Province and (for Bangkok) district
    • Quarter (Q1–Q4)
    • Age groups
    • Sex
    • Selected mode / road-user categories
  • Small cells may be combined or omitted to reduce re-identification risk.
