The goal of the workshop was to develop a consensus on priority research for academic participation and to establish a university consortia approach for performing this research. The intent of this workshop was to provide the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA), U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) with a research agenda that identified several high priority research clusters of remote sensing applications in transportation that USDOT can support in the coming years under the terms of the Transportation Equity Act of 1998 (TEA-21). The Applications of Remotely Sensed Data in Transportation Workshop was held on 12-13 August 1999 in Columbus, Ohio. This document serves as the summary report after 1-1/2 days of workshop discussions that concluded with a consensus on a set of recommendations for long-term research thrust areas in the use of remotely sensed data in transportation
