SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MODELING AND SIMULATION IN VEHICLE FORENSICS

An autonomous vehicle (AV) including a vehicle body, and a vehicle computing device is provided. The vehicle computing device includes a processor in communication with a memory device. The processor is configured to identify a time and a geographic location of a traffic collision involving the AV, retrieve map data and contextual data associated with the time and the geographic location of the traffic collision, retrieve vehicle telematics data collected by sensors coupled to the vehicle body, determine for each of a plurality of moments in time during the traffic collision a position and an orientation of the AV during the traffic collision, generate a simulation of the traffic collision including a representation of the AV based upon the map data, the contextual data, and the vehicle telematics data, and provide content to enable display of the simulation on a display device.
