Travel Forecasting Resource with TRB and Travel Analysis Metadata

The National Cooperative Highway Research Program and the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Travel Forecasting Resource are developing broad spectrum resources for travel forecasting and analysis. Feedback from lead modeling agencies during peer reviews requested additional context information to efficiently fit the modeling tool to fit agency needs and priorities. This effort will develop metadata and search tools to assist modelers in identifying data and methods that are specific to their application context. The TF Resource is a travel demand modeling reference written by travel modelers for travel modelers. It is hosted by TRB and overseen by Special Committee ADB45 per the recommendations from Special Report 288. These funds will be made available to TRB under a grant to develop content and manage the reference.
