Methods, apparatus, and systems for acquiring and analyzing vehicle data and generating an electronic representation of vehicle operations

A method for documenting an incident involving a first vehicle at an incident site, the method comprising:

• A) electronically receiving source data representing at least one input image of a geographic area including the incident site;
• B) electronically receiving, from a vehicle control system associated with the first vehicle, vehicle-based information relating to the first vehicle at a time during or proximate the incident;
• C) based at least in part on the vehicle-based information received in B), digitally representing, on the at least one input image, a first representation of at least a portion of the incident to thereby generate a marked-up digital image including the first representation;
• and
• D) electronically transmitting and/or electronically storing information relating to the marked-up digital image so as to document the incident with respect to the geographic area.

At least one computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by at least one processing unit, perform a method for documenting an incident involving a first vehicle at an incident site, the method comprising:

• A) electronically receiving source data representing at least one input image of a geographic area including the incident site;
• B) electronically receiving, from a vehicle control system associated with the first vehicle, vehicle-based information relating to the first vehicle at a time during or proximate the incident;
• C) based at least in part on the vehicle-based information received in B), digitally representing, on the at least one input image, a first representation of at least a portion of the incident to thereby generate a marked-up digital image including the first representation;
• and
• D) electronically transmitting and/or electronically storing information relating to the marked-up digital image so as to document the incident with respect to the geographic area.
