Abstract:

Several recent Transportation Research Board (TRB) data activities concluded that critical supply chain data are not currently available to inform research, planning, and policy making that impact freight movements, the transportation system, and the U.S. economy. The TRB standing Freight Data Committee held a workshop to initiate a dialogue about private sources and uses of supply chain data and to identify opportunities in which these data could be used to support public-sector decision making. Under the auspices of the Freight Data Committee, a planning team chaired by Scott Drumm from the Port of Portland carried out the detailed planning for the workshop. This document consists of individually authored summaries from the workshop. None of the views expressed should be construed as consensus findings or recommendations on the part of all workshop participants, the planning team, the sponsoring committee, or TRB. The planning team included professionals from the public and private sectors and academia and consisted of users, analysts, and modelers of freight transportation data.
