Economic Impacts of Lock Usage and Unavailability
项目名称: Economic Impacts of Lock Usage and Unavailability
摘要: Freight statistics should provide an objective baseline for transportation policy decisions, and national economic benefits of maritime transport necessitate improving inland waterways infrastructure. Proposed work includes consolidating and learning from Lock Use, Performance, and Characteristics data collected by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and published by the navigation Data Center. The objective is to estimate statistical models of annual tons locked by commodity group and lock, as a function of lock usage and unavailability (1993-2013), to discover knowledge of relationships between system disruption and economic consequences.
