The Task Force on ���Understanding New Directions for the National Household Travel Survey��� (ABJ45T) is calling for posters showcasing innovative uses of the National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) for presentation at the Transportation Research Board���s 94th Annual Meeting on January 11-15, 2015, in Washington DC.

��

We are particularly (but not uniquely) interested in research, case studies and analyses that use the NHTS:

in combination with other large, publically-available datasets; or

to understand and illustrate travel patterns using visualization and animation; or

to identify and characterize long-distance and rural trips; or

to better understand traffic safety & more broadly public health topics related to transportation; or

for disaster management; or

to analyze transit or active transportation modes; or

to analyze salient environmental or energy issues; or

to answer questions of interest to MPOs.

��

The objective of this poster session is to bring together planners, analysts, policy makers, and potential users of NHTS data to share / learn about innovative applications of the NHTS. For guidelines on how to present a poster effectively, see��onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/archive/Guidelines/PosterPresenters.pdf.

Please email a poster outline consisting of a 200 to 300 words abstract with a title and authors��� contact information to��abj45tposterstrb2015@gmail.com��by September 5, 2014.
