Transportation Planner's Handbook on Conversion Factors for the Use of Census Data

The goal of this handbook is to assist the transportation planner in using the 1990 Census Transportation Planning Package (CTPP) to develop and calibrate local travel demand models. Often, collecting new data to complete the development of a local model is not an option. Therefore, planners must rely on existing data and previously completed models with little else to assist in model calibration. Regardless of what local data are available, the 1990 Census provides another source of information to assist in model development.
