THE RAPID EVOLUTION OF MULTIPURPOSE URBAN INFORMATION SYSTEMS ALONG WITH EMERGENT CHANGES IN THE CENSUS TECHNOLOGY WILL PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR A NEW GENERATION OF TRANSPORTATION ANALYSIS AND PLANNING STUDIES. THIS PAPER OUTLINES THE LOGICAL BASES OF NEW SYSTEMS UNDER DEVELOPMENT, DISCUSSES APPLICATIONS TO GENERAL URBAN ANALYSIS, AND RELATES THESE APPLICATION POTENTIALS TO URBAN TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND PLANNING. PARTICULAR EMPHASIS IS GIVEN TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NEW INFORMATION HANDLING CAPABILITIES AND THE NEEDS OF URBAN TRANSPORTATION PLANNING. /AUTHOR/
