Hello Rich - I have been out of the office for the past few weeks - but would be willing to participate if it is not too late. I work for a small MPO in upstate NY and use TransCAD for modelling. Tom Tom Mank Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council 607-274-5583 Dear Colleagues (apologies for cross-posting for those who also subscribe to TMIP-L), The study team for NCHRP 8-79 (Developing Transportation Data Products from the American Community Survey That Comply With Disclosure Rules) is looking for small and medium-sized MPOs to participate in the second phase of research into the impact of disclosure-avoidance techniques on the resulting data usability for transportation planning and travel demand modeling of the 5-year ACS-based CTPP tabulations. The team is interested both in small and medium-sized MPOs who maintain their own travel demand forecasting models, and MPOs who perform sketch-planning modeling using the methods from NCHRP Report 365. Participation would include production of a nominal amount of travel model output. Please contact me off-list at rroisman(a)vhb.com if you represent a small or medium-sized MPO and would like to assist the research effort, or know of some good candidate agencies. Thank you for your time. -Rich Roisman Richard I. Roisman, AICP Senior Transportation Planner VHB | Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc.
