Description:
Abstract:
The Intermodal Terminal Facilities data set contains
geographic data for trailer-on-flatcar (TOFC) and
container-on-flatcar (COFC) highway rail and/or rail-
water transfer facilities in the United States.
Attribute data specify the intermodal connections at
each facility; i.e., the modes involved in the
intermodal transfer, the AAR reporting marks of the
railroad serving the facility, the type of cargo
(always containers/trailers), and the direction of
the transfer.
Purpose:
The database provides location and attribute
Information for use in national and regional
cartographic and network analysis applications.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Attribute data were extracted from the IANA 1997 Rail
Intermodal Terminal Directory, the Official Railway
Guide; the TTX Company Intermodal Directory; World
Wide Web home pages of Burlington Northern Santa Fe,
Conrail, CSX Transportation, Kansas City Southern,
and Norfolk Southern; U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Port Series Reports; Containerization International
Yearbook; 1996 AAPA Directory; and various
transportation news sources both in print and on the
Internet. Attribute data reflect conditions at
TOFC/COFC facilities during 1995-96 and are subject
to frequent change. Some facilities may be dormant
or permanently closed.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
All point records are represented by a single coordinate
Pair and a unique feature identifier of the form SSCCC
NNNN, where SS is the 2-digit State FIPS code, CCC is the
3-digit county FIPS code, and NNNN is a sequence number
within the state/county. Attribute data are matched to
specific point records using this identifier.
Completeness_Report:
The database includes TOFC/COFC facilities and marine
container terminals with rail connections which were listed
the IANA 1997 Rail Intermodal Terminal Directory, the
January/February 1997 edition of the Official Railway
Guide; the TTX Company Intermodal Directory; the World
Wide Web home pages of Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Railway, Conrail, CSX Transportation, Kansas City
Southern, and Norfolk Southern; U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Port Series Reports; Containerization
International Yearbook; 1996 AAPA Directory; and various
transportation news sources both in print and on the
Internet. The database does not include TOFC/COFC and
marine container facilities known to have been closed
before or during 1996. However, because of the frequent
turnover of this type of facility, some of the terminals
included in the database may now be dormant or
permanently closed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The locations of TOFC/COFC facilities were
Determined using available facility address
information and MapExpert, a commercial
nationwide digital map database and software
package, and recording the longitude/latitude
of the approximate center of the facility.
Facility locations are not bound to any current
or previous highway, railway, or waterway
network models.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
TOFC/COFC facilities identified from various
sources were located using MapExpert, a
commercial nationwide digital map database and
software package, supplemented with other
available spatial reference aids, including
paper maps, aerial photographs, and published
railroad atlases. The computer pointing device
cursor was placed over the approximate location
of the terminal and the displayed
longitude/latitude was recorded. Attribute
data were appended to each point.
