TRB 2017 Session Information
Spatial Analysis (Workshop 147)
Sunday, January 8, 2017 9:00AM - 12:30PM, Convention Center, 154
Yiyi Wang, Montana State University, presiding
Sponsored By:
Standing Committee on Statistical Methods (ABJ80)
Program Details
The purpose of this workshop is to introduce audiences to the principles of spatial analysis and its applications in the transportation domain. Participants will gain basic knowledge on describing, visualizing, and interpreting spatial trends and be provided an introduction to spatial regression models, all of which can be generalized to specific areas of interest. A hands-on workshop activity is included to engage attendees in the pros and cons of spatial analysis.
Presentations
Overview of Spatial Analysis for Transportation Analysis
Kara Kockelman, University of Texas, Austin, Presentation Number P17-21740
Considering Spatial Variability in Pavement Design
Jeremy Lea, University of California, Davis, Presentation Number P17-21741
