1. A computer-implemented method for synchronizing road segment parameters with images of a road segment to facilitate improved analysis of information about the road segment, the method comprising:
capturing, via an image sensor, a set of images of a road segment during a time-period;
detecting, by one or more processors, a plurality of road segment parameters associated with the road segment during the time-period;
time-synchronizing, by the one or more processors, the set of images and the plurality of road segment parameters according to a common clock based on an occurrence of a common event represented in the set of images and the plurality of road segment parameters;
storing, by the one or more processors, the set of images and the plurality of road segment parameters to be referenceable by a set of timestamps; and
analyzing, by the one or more processors, the set of images and the plurality of road segment parameters to identify one or more vehicle events, each characterized by a subset of the set of images and a subset of the plurality of road segment parameters.
