Freight Analysis Framework Version 5 (FAF5): Experimental County-Level Estimates
Overview
The Freight Analysis Framework (FAF) database provides estimates of the weight and value of shipments throughout the United States for all commodity types and forms of transportation using a geographic system of 132 FAF zones. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) developed an experimental county-to-county commodity flow product to provide the user community with more geographically granular commodity flow data to support planning, policymaking, and operational decisions at the state and local levels. Using the links below, users can download state-specific files or the entire set of disaggregation factors to create customized queries. Users can click this link to access the User Guide and technical documentation that accompany this release. This experimental product provides flows for five commodity groups and five mode categories (see documentation for more details). BTS welcomes users to email FAF@dot.gov with feedback on this experimental product.

Zipfile with experimental disaggregation factors for all counties
Click on the following links to download files for each state. The state FIPS code is also shown next to the state. Each zip file contains four tables with 1) county-level OD flows for the state of interest and every adjacent state, 2) county-to-FAF OD flows from the multi-state area to all other FAF zones, 3) FAF-to-county OD flows from all other FAF zones to the multi-state area, and 4) FAF-to-FAF OD flows from all other FAF zones to all other FAF zones. The files use county-level geography for the state of interest and states adjacent to this state. FAF zones represent flows outside of this area.
