I just wanted to give you all a brief update before we hit the paper
review stage.
For January the committee has several things going.
1. We are developing a presentation session entitled "Integrating
Congestion Monitoring and the Planning Process". For the session we
will have several practitioners present their congestion monitoring work
with an eye on discussing their congestion measures, the acceptance of
the measures, the use of the measures in the project selection and/or
planning process. Actually, there is a list of questions for the
presenters to consider that I will send out a little latter. After the
practitioners present their stuff a noted congestion expert will do a
"wrap-up/integration" presentation based on all the practitioners'
presentations. So far we have presenters from Seattle (Mark Hallenbeck),
Phoenix (Mark Schlappi) and maybe one from Chicago. We still have room
for one or two more that haven't been secured. For the Congestion Tim
Lomax has given me a tentative yes.
2. For Sunday, Shawn Turner is working on the development of a Workshop
under the Archive Data User Service (ADUS) umbrella. The concept of the
workshop will be to get those working in and around the ADUS archives to
share experiences etc. Contact Shawn for more details. (979-845-8829;

3. The Census Subcommittee will host a poster session for people to
display the "cool stuff" that they are doing with Census data. We had a
call for posters on the street that I hope all of you have seen. If you
are interested in putting something together or know someone get hold of
Bob Sicko our Subcommittee Chair ( 425-415-0905,

4. We are participating in a joint paper call with the Survey Methods
committee dealing with GPS-enhanced travel / activity survey results.
That's about all I can remember right now. If anyone has anything else
to add just reply to the A1D08 listserve mailing address
(a1d08-news(a)chrispy.net). For now the list is set up to only go to the
committee members. (Chuck I need to get with you to update the committee
members on our webpage.)
