  • Abstract:
    The Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) has played a key role in helping the people of Appalachia build a better future. The organization encourages job creation and interconnectivity, fostering business and community growth and linking the Appalachian Region to national and international markets. An important strategy for economic development and employment success is the promotion of export trade opportunities in the Appalachian Region. ARC, on behalf of 10 Appalachian states, recently acquired the Port Import/Export Reporting Service (PIERS) data, which is aggregated waterborne trade data from bills of lading for 88 ports within the United States. The data was acquired to assist Appalachia's leaders and citizens in analyzing the capacity, capability, and resources they need to build and strengthen their local economies through trade. ARC used this data to develop the Appalachian Regional Transportation and Export Data System (ARTEDS) in partnership with the Rahall Transportation Institute (RTI). Through this program, ARC and RTI hope to improve data gathering processes and increase the functional capabilities of the members of ARC. The objective of this project was to develop the Appalachian Regional Transportation and Export Data System (ARTEDS). The system provides a tool which allows the ARC Export Trade Advisory Council (ETAC) members to access PIERS Data. The system is integrated to incorporate other applicable datasets within the existing ADHS GIS system.
