PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DECENNIAL CENSUS DATA FOR TRANSPORTATION PLANNING - PART III DATA-USER EXPERIENCE WITH THE 1980 CENSUS--OPENING STATEMENT

Papers presented at this session on the Data-User Experience with the 1980 Census describe in detail such uses, ranging from national, state, local, and interregional planning to service to local government on land use and employment estimates. From a strictly transportation planning point of view, the transportation-oriented data have generally been used to develop a new data base for urbanized areas. Another important use has been in the application of existing models and in the development of new models, especially for mode-split analysis and shared-ride options. Data have been used for subarea planning, alternatives analysis, air-quality and energy studies, and land use forecasting. The data have highlighted the unserved transit patron and provided information for Title VI transit reports. Studies of hazardous waste transportation have been done for both night and day circumstances.
