The Census now has variance replicate estimates for certain ACS tables.
This is intended to improve certain derived MOE's. I'm looking forward to
testing it out.

*Subject:* ABJ30(1) seeking ideas for research statements
Dear colleagues and friends of the Census subcommittee,
An important function of TRB is to stimulate research that addresses
concerns, issues, or problems facing the transportation community. In
support of this function, TRB committees identify and develop research need
statements (RNS) for use by practitioners and researchers. A list of RNS
can be found here: https://rns.trb.org/.
The Census Data for Transportation Planning subcommittee (ABJ30(1)) wants
to develop 2-3 research needs statements with the goal of submitting one
for NCHRP funding. We want your ideas for possible research topics. Data
methods as well as applied uses are welcome. The idea needs to involve a
Census product and should be related to transportation and urban data. You
can also include things like potential benefits, relevance to the
transportation community, and the end product you envision. We will be
assembling a small team to consider the ideas and develop some of them into
full research needs statements.
Please send an email to mkaminowitz(a)baltometro.org and
clara.reschovsky(a)dot.gov with your ideas by August 1. We look forward to
hearing from you!
Clara Reschovsky & Mara Kaminowitz, co-chairs, ABJ30(1)
