The T-100 Domestic Market and Segment Data dataset was downloaded on June 06, 2024 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The database includes data obtained from a 100 percent census of BTS Form 41 schedule submissions by large certificated air carriers. It shows 2023 statistics for all domestic airports operated by US carriers, and all information are totals for the year. This dataset is a combination of both T-100 Market and T-100 Segments datasets. The T-100 Market includes enplanement data, and T-100 Segment data includes arrivals, departures, freight, and mail. Data is by origin airport.

Travel Zones (TZs) are the spatial unit of geography defined by Transport Performance and Analytics (TPA), a business unit within Transport for NSW (TfNSW). The TZ spatial layer is applied to data sources used by TfNSW for transport modelling and analysis, including the Household Travel Survey and the Census 2016 Journey to Work data. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Statistical Area boundaries form the foundation of the TZ. Generally, a TZ is larger than a Statistical Area Level 1 or Mesh Block, both ABS geography definitions. The ABS Statistical Areas are based on population counts whereas TZ boundaries are defined using population, employment, housing and transport infrastructure. TZs are designed to have standardised trip generation levels across all zones. This causes zones to be different sizes across the metropolitan area. As with many other spatial boundaries, TZs tend to be small in areas with high land-use densities and larger in areas of lower density.

The report covers transportation-related financial activities of the federal, state and local governments, as well as government enterprises (e.g., public transit agencies, toll highways, parking lots, air terminals, etc) that finance most of their outlays by providing services to the public. The report focuses on the role of the government as transportation infrastructure system provider and its financial activities pertaining to this function. The financial activities of the government as user of the transportation system are not included except when these activities are directly relevant to its role as provider of the transportation infrastructure. The following broad categories of data are provided in this report: Federal revenues and expenditures by mode and program for FY 1985-2000. Federal grants to state and local governments by mode for FY 1985-2000. Federal budget authority and obligations by mode and program for FY 1985-2000. State government revenues and expenditures by mode for the fifty states for FY 1985- 1999.

A monthly measure of the volume of services performed by the for-hire transportation sector. The index covers the activities of local mass transit, intercity passenger rail, and passenger air transportation.
