• Abstract:
  The U.S. Committee on the Marine Transportation System (CMTS) worked with the Transportation Research Board (TRB) to hold their fourth biennial research and development conference, “From Sail to Satellite: Delivering Solutions for Tomorrow’s Marine Transportation System,” in Washington, DC at the National Academy of Sciences on June 21-23, 2016. The forum examined emerging and innovative technologies and practices in marine transportation and waterways management, bringing together approximately 130 attendees from government, industry, academia, and beyond. These participants made the event the largest marine transportation system (MTS) research and development (R&D) conference yet, with 19 breakout sessions, 3 plenary sessions, 3 keynote addresses, a student honors panel, and the closing summary session.
