The chapter analyses characteristics and unique features of the freight system, data requirements of different modeling techniques, and the roles of various data collection procedures. The analyses produce a set of findings of relevance to the design of comprehensive freight data collection frameworks for mid-size and large urban areas. Building on these findings, the chapter identifies a modular data collection framework that would enable transportation agencies to mix and match data collection efforts depending on their needs and constraints.
