The Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) is undertaken through a partnership between the U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Department of Commerce, and the Research and Innovation Technology Administration, Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), U.S. Department of Transportation. This survey produces data on the movement of goods in the United States. It provides information on commodities shipped, their value, weight, and mode of transportation, as well as the origin and destination of shipments of manufacturing, mining, wholesale, and select retail and services establishments. The data from the CFS are used by public policy analysts and for transportation planning and decision making to access the demand for transportation facilities and services, energy use, and safety risk and environmental concerns. This dataset provides data for the Temperature Series.

Subarea: The U.S. Census Bureau, together with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), has released an experimental data product providing additional geographic granularity to existing Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) estimates. These Subarea estimates divide the existing 132 CFS Areas into 329 Subareas such that each Subarea consists of at least one county and – in general – at least 10,000 CFS shipments. Data are available for origin by destination by commodity group at one mode of transportation – combined truck and ground parcel. Finer geographic detail is provided for origins and destinations that are geographically near each other. For rarer, long-distance shipments, paired geographies are aggregated at either the origin or the destination.

The Freight Analysis Framework (FAF) integrates data from a variety of sources to create a comprehensive picture of freight movement among states and major metropolitan areas by all modes of transportation. With data from the 2007 Commodity Flow Survey and additional sources, FAF version 3 (FAF3) provides estimates for tonnage, value, and domestic ton-miles by region of origin and destination, commodity type, and mode for 2007, the most recent year, and forecasts through 2040. Also included are state-to-state flows for these years plus 1997 and 2002, summary statistics, and flows by truck assigned to the highway network for 2007 and 2040.

Statistics are presented for undirected food and non-food networks across spatial scales.

description: FAF domestic region level datasets and products (NTAD) provide information for states, state portions of large metropolitan areas, and remainders of states. Metropolitan areas consist of Metropolitan Statistical Areas or Consolidated Statistical Areas as defined by the Office of Management and Budget. When a metropolitan area is entirely within a state or when a state's portion of a multi-state metropolitan area is large enough to support the sampling procedures in the Commodity Flow Survey, the area becomes a separate FAF region. Small single-state metropolitan areas and small portions of a multi-state metropolitan area are part of the State or Remainder of State. FAF has two metropolitan areas that are each divided into three FAF regions, four that are each divided into two FAF regions, and several that have small pieces combined with States or Remainders of States.; abstract: FAF domestic region level datasets and products (NTAD) provide information for states, state portions of large metropolitan areas, and remainders of states.

This is a public dataset for the Department of Transportation, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology's Bureau of Transportation Statistics. The public database consists of four tables. One of the tables is a spatial table: INTERMODAL_FACILITY. The three other tables consist of attribute data for the database: INTERMODAL_CARGO, INTERMODAL_COMMODITY and INTERMODAL_DIRECTIONALITY. This database was based on the requirements from the Commodity Flow Survey and with the different modes of DOT, supervised by OST-R/BTS. The database will extend its design to support all of the modes within the DOT and in reference to modes involved with Intermodal transfer.

This statistic shows the projected value of commodities moved by the U.S. domestic rail freight transportation system from 2015 through 2035. It is expected that U.S. will move commodities to the value of 489 billion U.S. dollars on domestic rail tracks in 2020.

The Freight Analysis Framework (FAF5) - Regions dataset was created from 2017 base year data and was published on April 11, 2022 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 2017 Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) contains 132 zones for U.S. domestic regions, which are directly carried over to the geography definitions for the FAF (Version 5) Regions. These geographic areas can be classified as one of the following three types: (1) Metropolitan Area (MA): The state part of a selected metropolitan statistical area (MSA) or combined statistical area (CSA). (2) The Remainder of State (ROS): The portion of a state containing the counties that are not included in the MA type CFS Areas defined above. (3) Whole State: An entire state where no MA type CFS Areas are defined within the state.

Machinery and electrical commodities accounted for 26 percent of air trade flows from Europe to North America in 2019. This was the commodity with the largest share in this period with the second highest ranked commodity being chemical and related products products which had an air trade share of 13 percent.
