Viewing summary data and projects in the TIP Dashboard

The TIP Dashboard provides a graphical summary of the number and total cost of projects by Project Type.  The summary can be filtered by selecting an Agency or Completion Year from the right side menus.  An additional filter for Funding Status can also be applied.  A list of projects included in the summary can be viewed by selecting List from the top menu.  The List view can also be downloaded as a comma separated text file (.csv) which can be opened with most word processing and spreadsheet software.
