Webinar: Using FAF Data in Economic Analysis

Mid-America Freight Coalition 

June 26, 2014
1:00-2:15 PM Eastern

This webinar will explore how practitioners in state departments of transportation, metropolitan/regional planning organizations, and other agencies can use FAF data to support economic analysis, such as cost-benefit studies, freight investment scenarios, and other activities. The webinar will feature speakers from Cambridge Systematics and North Dakota State University.
This webinar is aimed at practitioners with basic or no knowledge of the FAF but who would like to move to the next skill level. This webinar will also provide a useful foundation for more advanced topics (e.g., linking FAF with county-level data, using FAF for statewide freight planning) that will be covered in future webinars.

Registration is required and you must register by June 24. For additional information, email FAF@dot.gov.
