| Abstract | The following report summarizes the results of a peer exchange on data transferability organized and sponsored by the FHWA Travel Model Improvement Program (TMIP) and co-sponsored by the TRB Committees on Urban Transportation Data and Information Systems (ABJ30), Traveler Behavior and Values (ADB10), and National Transportation Data Requirements and Programs (ABJ10). The exchange brought together representatives of state and local departments of transportation (DOTs), metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), academics, and transportation consultants. It consisted of presentations on data transferability topics, followed by a discussion of data transferability issues structured around a set of questions prepared prior to the meeting. A common theme throughout the day was that a great deal of further research is needed to progress the field of data transferability so that more widespread data sharing can occur. To this end, the group produced a set of research topics that would be beneficial to data transferability, shown in Appendix A. |
