... 4shows how out of 8,414 total curves, only 854 curves meet the selection criteria, which in turn helps focus the research questions and provide a more efficient and convenient process to request NDS data. When the RID is completed in December 2014, a user guidance document, which includes data sources, query examples, roadway-linked NDS data examples, and a step-by-step process to integrate additional data into the RID, will be provided along with the database.
