RICAPS On-road Transportation Emissions roll-up
datahub.smcgov.org | Last Updated 2018-06-13T15:39:17.000ZData by city showing transportation contribution to greenhouse gas emissions in the County. This data is part of the Regionally Integrated Climate Action Planning Suite (RICAPS) program. The majority of cities used the “in-boundary” methodology that relies on data from the Highway Performance Monitoring System. The inventories for South San Francisco and Unincorporated County use the “origin-destination” methodology from that relies on data from Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). So, directly comparing vehicle miles traveled (VMT) across all cities is not statistically possible. Each city in San Mateo County has the opportunity to develop its own Climate Action Plan (CAP) using tools developed by C/CAG in conjunction with DNV KEMA https://www.dnvgl.com/ and Hara. http://www.verisae.com/default.aspx. This project was funded by grants from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). Climate Action Plans developed from these tools will meet BAAQMD's California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for a Qualified Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategy.

Northern Hemisphere Snow Cover Monthly Statistics at 1 Degree Resolution V001 (NHSNOWM) at GES DISC
data.nasa.gov | Last Updated 2022-01-17T05:45:22.000ZThis product is Snow Cover Statistics. The dataset was prepared by Dr. Peter Romanov at Cooperative Institute for Climate Studies(CICS) of the University of Maryland for Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) program. The product includes the monthly snow statistics (frequency of occurrence) for Northern Hemisphere at 1x1 degree spatial resolution. The dataset covers the time period from January 2000 to November 2014. Monthly data were derived from daily snow cover charts produced at NOAA/NESDIS within Interactive Multisensor Ice Mapping System (IMS).

The 1995 American Travel Survey (ATS) - Household Trip Characteristics
datahub.transportation.gov | Last Updated 2018-12-19T00:13:37.000ZThe 1995 American Travel Survey (ATS) was conducted by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) to obtain information about the long-distance travel of persons living in the United States. The survey collected quarterly information related to the characteristics of persons, households, and trips of 100 miles or more for approximately 80,000 American households.The ATS data provide detailed information on state-to-state travel as well as travel to and from metropolitan areas by mode of transportation. Data are also available for subgroups defined in terms of characteristics related to travel, such as trip purpose, age, family type, income, and a variety of related characteristics. The data can be analyzed at the regional, state, metropolitan area, and county level.NOTE: In 2001, the National Household Travel Survey was carried out. This new survey is a combined Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (NPTS) and ATS.

The Omnibus Surveys - 2002 Mariner Survey
datahub.transportation.gov | Last Updated 2018-12-19T00:13:39.000ZThe Omnibus Surveys are a convenient way to get very quick input on transportation issues; to see who uses what, how they use it, and how users view it, and what they think about it; and to gauge public satisfaction with the transportation system and government programs.The series of surveys include: A monthly household survey of 1,000 households each month, which collects data on core questions about general travel experiences, satisfaction with the system, and some demographic data. Targeted surveys to address special transportation issues, as the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) operating administrations need them

Greenhouse Gas Emissions over Time (Residential Energy and Transportation)
www.transparentrichmond.org | Last Updated 2021-02-16T09:56:33.000ZThis data includes residential energy and on road, off road, and BART transportation emissions. Complete commercial/industrial data is not currently available to the City so it is not included. Solid waste data is pending additional data for 2018 and 2019.

Nimbus-7 SMMR Derived Monthly Global Snow Cover and Snow Depth
nasa-test-0.demo.socrata.com | Last Updated 2015-07-19T09:14:15.000ZThe data set consists of monthly global snow cover and snow depth derived from Nimbus-7 SMMR data for 1978 through 1987. The SMMR data are interpolated for spatial and temporal gaps, and averaged for display in polar stereographic projection. Maps are based on six-day average brightness temperature data from the middle week of each month. Data are placed into 1/2 degree latitude by 1/2 degree longitude grid cells uniformly subdividing a polar stereographic map according to the geographic coordinates of the center of the radiometers' fields of view. Overlapping data from separate orbits in the same six-day period are averaged to give a single brightness temperature assumed to be at the cell's center. Oceans and bays are masked so that only microwave data for land areas are displayed. Comparisons of SMMR snow cover maps with previous maps produced by NOAA/NESDIS and US Air Force Global Weather Center indicate that the total snow covered area derived from SMMR is usually about ten percent less than that measured by the earlier products, because passive microwave sensors often can't detect shallow dry snow less than about 5 cm deep. Snow depths are comparable, showing SMMR results to be especially good for uniform snow covered areas such as the Canadian high plains and Russian steppes. Heavily forested and mountainous areas tend to mask the microwave snow signatures, and SMMR snow depth derivations are less reliable in those areas. Formerly distributed by NASA/GSFC/NSSDC and NASA Pilot Land Data System (PLDS), these data are now available via ftp from NSIDC.

Vital Signs: Transit Cost-Effectiveness – by operator
data.bayareametro.gov | Last Updated 2018-07-06T18:04:51.000ZVITAL SIGNS INDICATOR Transit Cost-Effectiveness (T13) FULL MEASURE NAME Net cost per transit boarding (cost per boarding minus fare per boarding) LAST UPDATED May 2017 DESCRIPTION Transit cost-effectiveness refers to both the total and net costs per transit boarding, both of which are adjusted to reflect inflation over time. Net costs reflect total operating costs minus farebox revenue (i.e. operating costs that are not directly funded by system users). The dataset includes metropolitan area, regional, mode, and system tables for net cost per boarding, total cost per boarding, and farebox recovery ratio. DATA SOURCE Federal Transit Administration: National Transit Database http://www.ntdprogram.gov/ntdprogram/data.htm Bureau of Labor Statistics: Consumer Price Index http://www.bls.gov/data/ CONTACT INFORMATION vitalsigns.info@mtc.ca.gov METHODOLOGY NOTES (across all datasets for this indicator) Simple modes were aggregated to combine the various bus modes (e.g. rapid bus, express bus, local bus) into a single mode to avoid incorrect conclusions resulting from mode recoding over the lifespan of NTD. For other metro areas, operators were identified by developing a list of all urbanized areas within a current MSA boundary and then using that UZA list to flag relevant operators; this means that all operators (both large and small) were included in the metro comparison data. Financial data was inflation-adjusted to match 2015 dollar values using metro-specific Consumer Price Indices.
