The Swedish Government has given the Swedish Transport Administration the instruction to "follow and document the R&I in the transport sector". This project is a continuation of the surveys carried out the two last years for this purpose by the Library and Information Centre (BIC) at the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI) on behalf of the Swedish Transport Administration. The aim is to follow the development in R&I over time to identify trends and thus provide support for the Swedish Transport Administration's strategic planning and development. The information will be obtained from sources identified in the previous project but others may also be added. The information will be categorized and summarized in the same way as previously. A visualization of the subject terms used for the papers presented at the Transportation Research Board's (TRB) annual conference is included in the project. Tailored searches will be made to find information published 2013 onwards dealing with 1) "Development of fossil fuel-free technology for road, air, maritime and rail transport", and 2) "Public transport trends: costs, changes in behaviour, development of services etc." A comparison will be made between this and the two previous surveys. The result will be presented in a report. |
