Data Gaps

The Data Gaps Project is a collaborative effort to address unasked and unanswered questions related to transportation. The project, which is being administered by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), is now in the initial information-gathering phase of identifying critical data gaps and important questions. To view the current list of data gaps, search the database.

What are Data Gaps? planners, policy makers, managers, researchers and other transportation data users don\’t always have the information they need to make the best informed decisions—there are gaps in the data.


While the subject matter of this project isn\’t library related, I think the theory behind this project could easily be applied to Library Science.
