Key Points

This study achieved a 90.12% accuracy rate in linking gun violence incidents from two datasets.
The linkage returned 27,420 matches, which can inform analysis and strategies to reduce gun violence.
Probabilistic record linkage was applied to 36,245 GVA records and 30,592 NVDRS records for analysis.
Successful electronic linkage of gun violence data highlights the potential for improved public health strategies.
