Abstract
This paper presents considerations in formulating test requirements for public ground transportation programs. Ground transportation systems are categorized by function, speed, subsystem characteristics, etc., in order to aid in establishing requirements of test engineering technology, test laboratories, and test facilities. Current LTV public transportation programs are used to exemplify the general test requirements of systems proposed to fill the current and projected needs of society.
