About this app

DailyTravel is an app designed by Westat to collect travel information for transportation studies. This information includes the location of places visited by participants along with details that explain the why, how, and when of travel to these places.

Transportation planners will use information collected from this study to develop forecasts of future travel in your city, region, and state. A number of households have been randomly selected to participate and represent households in the entire region. Only selected households have been provided a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and are able to use the DailyTravel app. The information that your household and other households in the survey provide will help build a complete and accurate picture of state and local transportation needs so that public funds for improvements can be spent where they are needed most.

For example: traffic stall, road construction stop, or lengthy traffic light stop. It plots every stop on a map. However, you are required to vet every stop as a destination or not, and if a destination, enter the name of the location. Based on its plot of a stop on a map, it should be able to do t
