Subject: MTAP Steering Call today - Census Bureau discussion
Hi Penelope and Kyla,
I was remiss in sharing this earlier, but at the MTAP Steering Committee call this afternoon at 2 pm, our main discussion is about the Census Bureau urban area redesignations, and implications for public transit. John Giorgis, FTA, and Chris Zeilinger, CTAA, will be sharing updates and their analysis.
If you or any members would be interested in listening in, you can register for the zoom meeting via this link:

The Census discussion will likely run for the first 45 mins of the meeting.
Best,
Rebecca
Hello CTPP Community, following up on my posts a couple months ago about the CTPP Data API hackathon, I'd like to formally announce the winners, selected by an awesome panel of experts:
* First Place: Suzanne Childress and Michael Jensen from PSRC submitted a web-based application called "CTPP Explorer" that maps CTPP commute mode data for the Puget Sound region. What really impressed the judges was that they also developed an R package that makes it simple to pull CTPP data from the new API. You can check out the code here: https://github.com/psrc/ctpp-explorer
* Second Place: Steve Hossack and Mark Jackman from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) developed an ArcGIS-based web application using a geoprocessing script that allows the user to select a single CTPP TAZ as a travel origin and visualize the amount of commute flow from that origin to all destination TAZs on the map. See this Github link<https://github.com/shossack/OCTACtppTazOriginDestination> for code and other details.
* Third Place: Zihao Jin from CTPS developed a flexible data visualization tool using Python that can be applied to make comparisons by pulling CTPP records for multiple geographical areas. You can contact them at zjin(a)ctps.org for more information.
All of these folks did a fantastic job and contributed valuable feedback that will help AASHTO and their software development contractor, Macrosys, make the new API even better when it is officially released. A new web-based graphical user interface for accessing CTPP data is also on the way—sign up at the link below to register as a Beta tester:
