Abstract
For the past six years researchers at University have been developing an interactive computer graphic methodology for the analysis of planning, marketing and operating issues confronting the U. S. railroad system. The analytical techniques developed have been uniquely coupled with the assembling of interactive computer graphic hardware and software at Princeton's Interactive Computer Graphic Laboratory. The paper summarizes the network analysis techniques, data sources and hardware configurations. It focuses on the various unique applications in which the interactive computer graphic capabilities have been indispensable. Separate emphasis is placed on the interactive, as well as the computer graphic aspects of the analysis. Each application is summarized and additional references cited. Extension of methodology to the analysis of other modes and application to non-transportation problems are suggested.
