KEY:
– Represents data cell equal to zero or less than 1
unit of measure.
S Estimate does not meet publication standards because of high sampling
variability or poor response quality.
1 Ton-miles estimates are based on estimated distances
traveled along a modeled transportation network. See "Mileage
Calculations" section for additional information.
2 Estimates exclude shipments of crude petroleum (SCTG 16).
NOTES: Value-of-shipments estimates have not been adjusted for
price changes. Appendix B tables provide estimated measures of sampling
variability. The Introduction and appendixes give information on
confidentiality protection, sampling error, nonsampling error, sample design,
and definitions. Links to this information on the Internet may be found at
www.census.gov/cfs. Coverage for the 2002 Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) differs
from the previous surveys due to a change from the 1987 Standard Industrial
Classification System to the 1997 North American Industry Classification
System and other survey improvements. Therefore, data users are urged to use
caution when comparing 2002 CFS estimates with estimates from prior years.
