The authority files used by the Transportation Research Information Service (TRIS) are also available for download. These files include terms (but not the notations of the terms). They were created for use as lookup tables in an online data entry system. The three files included in the download are TRTAUTH.TXT, which contains all the postable subject terms from TRT 2.0; TRTGEOG.TXT which contains the most frequently used geographic identifiers; and TRTIDEN.TXT, which contains the most frequently used personal and corporate name identifiers. The two identifier files are not authoritative: they are a compilation of terms used over the years, and should not be considered as a systematic or exhaustive list. These files are included in the complete TRT 2.0 download file (note that these files are not used by the Viewer program).

Updated TRTAUTH.TXT and TRTGEOG.TXT files that correspond to version 2.2 are included in the version 2.2 download file (above).
