[CTPP] new documents online

We now have two new documents online. The first is a PowerPoint presentation with embedded speaker notes. It discusses the status of CTPP 2000 planning efforts with a focus on the TAZ-UP process. The presentation was put together as a means of training folks interested in the CTPP and TAZ-UP process. It is a good overview for both technical staff and managers responsible for CTPP activities. It can be reached through the TRB Census Subcommittee's webpage or downloaded directly at http://members.xoom.com/berwyned/ctpp/ctpp0699.ppt (note: it is just under 0.5 megabytes.) Kudos to Elaine Murakami (FHWA) and Clara Reschovsky (Census) for the content and Kevin Cross (BTS) for the production as well as the CTPP Planning Group for its review efforts. The second document is the technical manual for the TAZ-UP software and process. It can also be found on the TAZ-UP software CD-ROM. The document is in PDF format and was prepared by Election Data Services, the consultant who designed the TAZ-UP software. The document can be found through the TRB Census Subcommittee s web site or downloaded directly from http://members.xoom.com/berwyned/ctpp/tazupdoc.pdf (note: it is 6.5 megabytes.) Both document are under the Subcommittees web site at http://www.mcs.com/~berwyned/census/ under the "Committee Notes and Articles" button. If you have any problems downloading these let me know. ed christopher berwyned(a)mcs.com 202-366-0412
