NOTES: The Transportation Satellite Accounts Use Table quantifies how transportation (both freight and passenger) is used by businesses in other sectors of the economy to create the goods and services that make up GDP. It includes in-house transportation activity (i.e., that which firms provide to move their own products) as well as for hire transportation. Data are shown by industry. Pipeline transportation is only shown separately for the Utility and Natural Resources industries. It is less than 5% of total transportation for other industries.
