CONSTRUCTING A REGIONAL DATABASE TO STUDY LAND USE-TRANSPORTATION INTERACTION

This paper, which appears in a compendium of conference papers, presents the methods used to develop a database designed to test the relationships between land use and travel patterns. Data requirements for the research were satisfied using existing data. Findings from the research have been directly applicable to growth management planning and project review under Washington's State Environmental Policy Act.
