TRANSNET: A means of accessing hazardous materials transportation models and databases
TRANSNET is a compilation of risk and systems analysis codes, routing and cost models and related data that address hazardous and radioactive materials transportation. TRANSNET is the acronym assigned to this system of models and associated data which reside on a dedicated MicroVAX 3800. After obtaining a password, users may access TRANSNET with a modem-equipped personal computer. TRANSNET was developed by Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) under the sponsorship of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Defense Programs (subsequently reorganized to the Office of Environmental Restoration and Waste Management). The goals of the TRANSNET system are to speed transfer of technology and data to qualified users by permitting access to the most comprehensive and up-to-date transportation risk and systems analysis models and associated databases. 13 refs.
