MK Comments: MK requested this term. Notation should reflect fact that the term is a scientific/technical discipline, not part of a mode of transportation: Ttkbd.
Discussion:
AE: Agree that it should be added.
ST: Aeronautics is Tpxsfh. The notation discussions will make us crazy, but why should the one be science and the other, engineering? McGraw Hill says that the diff between the two is the extent to which the vehicles are influenced by the Earth. And then their is the concept of Flight in the Q facet (vehicles). Astronautics includes the idea of vehicle operation in addition to the engineering.
Committee Consensus:
Park until we get a more detailed and authoritative definition.
Definition: The science of space flight including the design, construction, and operation of spacecraft. SN: use of a more specific term is recommended.
See where to place within the thesaurus.
NPT
NTL Comments: USE Traffic counts; per Q2 2010 discussion, look at making NPT to Traffic counts
MK Comments: I do not see sufficient use of this term to warrant its addition to the TRT as a UF. Also, it is generally unwise to make a narrower concept into a UF leading to a BT.
AE: Agree with inclusion. Disagree with MK. Generic posting methodology allows for it.
ST: Q2 discussion suggests making this an NT under Traffic counts. How about that?
AE: to ST- that seems OK
Committee Consensus:
Traffic count vs. Parking lot/Bike rack count. Not in prime time yet. Kendra will do more research to present to committee. Park for one year.

MK comments:
Discussion:
AE: Agree with inclusion. Have a problem with proposed definition. Bicycle safety is about the methods or practices designed to reduce the risk of bicycle injuries and fatalities. Not just the reduction of them.
ST: Add. Agree with Andy about the definition.

PT
NTL Comments: BT: Design of specific facilities; per Q2 2010 discussion, appears to be more about design; parked to determine notation; singular form of term is what is used, not plural. Notation may depend on how term will be used (should be plural if you can count the term).
MK Comments:
AE: Agree. Seems like term should be plural if talking about more than one built environment.
ST: Disagree. Too weird to have this as an NT under a term with a narrower meaning. Perhaps it should go under Land use, taking into account that there can be built and not-built uses of land.
AE: Agree with ST on placement. This is a a larger concept than design of specific facilities.
Committee Consensus:
Committee agrees to add term. Need a definition & and TRT placement i.e., Land use planning/System design/Retrofitting/Transportation planning. Finish for next quarter.

Revised PT
NTL Comments: BT: Contact wires; move "Catenaries (Railroads)" with Contact wires and remove modal parenthetical reference in accordance with TRB report
MK Comments:
Discussion:
AE: DISAGREE - Parenthetical still needed. Catenary has a mathemetical concept as well. Need parenthatical to disambiguate between different concepts per ANSI/NISO guideline. Disagree on placement. Contact Wires are part of Cantenaries not visa versa. According to information within Wikipedia -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_lines and the definition source below http://trb.metapress.com/content/q4756rv135222432/fulltext.pdf), Catenary is a type of Overhead Contact System. Contact Wires are a part of both types of OCS according to the TRB Source. Also heard term "Catenary" being used by a structural engineer on Discovery Channel show about bridges.
MB: In the TRT, Catenaries is listed as a narrower term http://trt.trb.org/trt.asp?NN=Pmuc for Contact Wire(s) rather than the broader term - which seems to be the opposite from how we understand it. Another issue is the definition of Catenaries in TRT - it refers to locomotives, nothing about light rail or high speed rail. Contact Wire does come up as a related term within Rail Transit Facilities (which is were light rail and subway technologies would be).
I also see Catenaries used in literature associated with Cable Bridges, but that association is not in TRT. It really is a mathematical term for the curvature (or droop) of chains, lines, wires, cables, etc.
Not sure what the submission to TRT was trying to accomplish. We could make Overhead Contact System (OCS) the preferred term, move Catenaries to Use For, and have Contact Wire(s) as the narrower term - does that sound reasonable?
Will look for further info. Catenaries is still in U.S. use in reference to transit, but the term appears to be incorrectly applied and isn't commonly used by the international community.
91 records in TRIS with Catenaries, and 91 records in TRIS with Contact Wire. In TLCat, 81 records with Catenary, only 3 with Catenaries. In WorldCat 576 with Catenary, only 49 with Catenaries.
Google Search of "Overhead Catenary System" show 11,300 results, while "Overhead Contact System" shows 204,000 results.
Committee Consensus:
Park until next quarter after speaking with SME. Same for Contact wires.
Contact wires
NTL Comments: BT: Overhead utility lines; see Q2 2010 revised terms discussion; need a definition; notation OK; NOTE: to revise, change the “Contact wire” (notation: pmuc) heading to this one “Contact wires” (notation: Pmptmpc)

NTL Comments: term and facet revision came about from research on federal taxation and excise taxes as preferred terms in Q3 2009; committee suggested reviewing the entire facets. See Q3 2009 for discussion
MK Comments:
AE: I agree with the preferred structure rather than the proposed. Excise tax such is not exclusively federal and can be state or county. Fuel taxes can be both federal and state. Highway use taxes could be state at some time in the future. Oregon is flirting with tax using VMT instead of gas. The proposed structure is too confining.
ST: Decline. The analysis is not yet complete. No indication of consultation with expert. I like the idea of taxes and taxation as the broad term. Narrower concepts could include taxation by jurisdiction (could include special districts); taxes by what is taxed; management of taxes; taxation by effect (progressive, regressive).
Committee Consensus:
Consult SME. Park until next quarter.
NTL Comments: see excise taxes above.

PT
NTL Comments: BT: Spatial analysis; RT: Geographic information systems
MK comments: I would add “Geospatial data” and assign additional term “Statistical analysis” to cover concept and/or use “Geographic information systems”.
Discussion:
AE: Disagree. Conceptually, there is no difference between Spatial Analysis and Geospatial Analysis. Suggest that Geospatial Analysis be a NPT to Spatial Analysis. WSDOT uses the terms interchangablely when we talk about analysis within the geospatial systems WSDOT designs. However the preferred term is Geospatial Analysis. Agree with MK about addition of Geospatial Data.
ST: Agree with Andy.
Committee Consensus
Resubmit for new research for next quarter--not part of Spatial analysis. (Also get GIS Xref out of Spatial analysis.)
Revised PT
NTL Comments: BT: High speed ground transportation; The following term relationship is conceptually flawed. A concept such as high speed rail (meaning high speed rail transportation) cannot be the narrower term for a type of train (a physical object). See TRT

Proposed definition: Human factors are those elements that influence the performance of people operating equipment or systems; they include behavioural, medical, operational, task-load, machine interface and work environment factors. From Transport Canada: http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/railsafety/publications-ontrack-215.htm
NTL Comments: REVIEW entire facet; see Q2 2010 for committee comments; from Q2 2010 conference call; REVIEW entire facet for terms that are not intrinsic human characteristics and move them. NOTE: facet review moved Human factors from a child (Mxa) to a sibling (Mv) of Human characteristics and moved 5 NTs of Human characteristics to be NTs of Human factors

NTL Comments: BT: Asphalt pavements; per Q2 2010 preferred and non-preferred term discussion, determine which of recycled or reclaimed should be PT. Reclaimed used more than recycled asphalt pavements; making Reclaimed asphalt pavements the PT and
Recycled ashpalt pavements the NPT
MK Comments: This is indeed the term (reclaimed) used by NAPA, TFHRC and Asphalt Institute. There are currently four terms (notations: Fmuhpf, Fmuhpi, Fmuhpic, Fmuhpih) covering the activity of recycling flexible pavements. Are those terms sufficient? Is the literature about the activity rather than the final product?
AE: Agreed
ST: What is the proposed notation? Do we need a broader review that includes the terms mentioned by MK above? Consider again later.
Committee Consensus:
Revisit in terms of broader term Asphalt pavement or Full depth concrete pavement

MK Comments:
Discussion:
AE: This is equivalent to Highway Networks above. I suggest making Road Networks the preferred term with Highway Networks as an NPT and Design as RT. Highway Networks in the design context could be indexed as Road Networks and Design (or Systems Design). A network whether qualified with highway or road is still a transportation network not a design of a specific facility.
ST: Road networks should be PT; Highway networks should be NPT leading to Road networks. Not sure about notation. See Transportation networks.
Committee Consensus:
Park all networks (Highway, Road, Transportation). Research A, C , and F facets. Road Networks exists now as an NPT to Roads.
