What is TravelTime?

Travel Time Map Generator & Isochrones

I know i can get from a to b by public transport within my selected time, but it's not showing up.

If you're using public transport to do your analysis, it can look like we don't include a specific transit line. But it is rare that we have forgotten to add it! We have a full data team collecting transport data, and they're rarely caught out. It's usually due to understanding how we calculate travel time catchments. We build the area to include:

• Walking to the station platform
• Waiting for the next available departure
• Time spent boarding the train
• Giving enough time to take the A to B journey
• Depart on the station on the other side.

That means if you set your max travel time at 30 minutes, and the train journey you think should be included takes 28 minutes, it probably won't show up, because the other steps push it over the max 30 min limit. Try adding an extra 5-10 minutes to your max catchment area and see if this helps! Understand how we built our public transport model

You can't drive that far / you can drive much further than that

We recommend that you do a little experiment.

• Open another mapping app of your choice and enter an A to B route
• Select a departure time for tomorrow.

The average mapping provider gives very vague driving estimations. It's not uncommon to see a journey estimation between 30 minutes up to 2 hours. That's a lot of buffer room!

Our driving model only returns one singular best possible time estimate. We do this using our purpose-built driving model. Explore how we've built our driving model.

About this tool

This demo was built to showcase the TravelTime API. To use the full capabilities of the API you will need coding skills, or experience with one of our integrations: QGIS, Alteryx or ArcGIS. Access to the API gives you larger travel time catchment areas, more transport mode options and large request volumes. Access the developer playground here.

What is a travel time map?

Our map tool allows you to create a 'How far can I go map' by transport mode and time limit. For example someone can ask how far can I drive from my home in 30 minutes. The tool outputs shapes, also known as travel time isochrones visualise where's reachable. Sometimes these shapes are incorrectly labelled as a 'travel time radius map'. A radius is always just a circular shape, but a travel time shape is completely unique as it analyses all locations reachable using a specific mode of transport.

How to create a drive time radius map or other modes

• Select a start location
• Select a maximum travel time limit
• Select a mode of transport, for example driving
• Voila! There's your driving radius map

Use cases for consumers

• Create a commute time map so you can see where to live based on commute time.
• How far can i travel in a given time: compare transport coverage for different areas.
• Create a drive time radius map: explore how far you can travel on a road trip.

Use cases for businesses

• Travel time mapping up to 4 hours & cross reference other data sets in GIS such as population data
• Site selection analysis: analyse the best location to locate a business by adding thousands of analysis points
• Create a distance matrix or travel time matrix & calculate travel times from thousands of origins to thousands of destinations
• Network analysis / travelling salesman problem: use spatial analytics to solve routing problems
• Commute time map - plot thousands of employee commute times for an office relocation

This web page is a limited demo that can do the following:

• Create up to 3 time polygons visualising where's reachable within 2 hours or less. Our API can create large travel time areas, talk to sales.
• Calculate travel times from an origin to various points of interest - in this demo we use points from Foursquare Give A to B routing details

Calculate the travel time or distance between paired origins and destinations

How can I calculate the distance from each student’s home to their assigned school to determine if they’re eligible to ride the school bus? How can I calculate the commute time from each employee’s home to their work site so I can most effectively target ridesharing incentives? How can I calculate the driving time from each patient’s home to the location of their doctor’s appointment to better understand access to health care in my state?

All these questions are examples of a common class of network analysis problem: calculating the travel time, distance, or route path between preassigned pairs of origins and destinations.

In this type of analysis, the goal isn’t to find the closest destination (a closest facility analysis) or to calculate the travel time or distance from all origins to all destinations (an origin destination cost matrix analysis). Nor is the goal to find the optimal way to dispatch a fleet of vehicles for paired pick-ups and drop-offs (a vehicle routing problem analysis). Rather, the goal is to calculate the optimal path from each origin to its assigned destination and get the travel time, distance, or route geometry of that path. This type of problem can be solved using the Network Analyst route solver.

Learn more about the Network Analyst analysis types

This post describes how to set up and solve this type of problem using the route solver. Then, it covers some ready-to-use tools that make solving this type of problem easier.

Configure the route solver for preassigned origin-destination pairs

As long as you set up the problem correctly, the Network Analyst route solver can calculate routes between multiple pairs of locations within one solve operation.

The input to the route solver is a single table of stops. Ordinarily, when you solve the analysis, you get a single route that visits all the stops in the table.

For example, you can set up a Stops table with four stops:

When you solve the route, you get a single route that visits each stop:

However, you can assign stops to different routes by setting a value in the RouteName field. Stops with the same RouteName field value will be assigned to the same route, and the analysis results will include a separate route for each unique RouteName in the table.

Revisit the example with four stops, but this time, use the RouteName field to split the four stops into two routes. Stops A and B both have a RouteName field value of Route 1, and Stops C and D have a RouteName field value of Route 2.

When you solve the analysis, there are two separate routes: one from Stop A to Stop B and another from Stop C to Stop D.

So, if you have preassigned origin-destination pairs, you can load each pair into the Stops table and give them a unique RouteName field value. This way, when you solve the analysis, each pair will get a unique route connecting the origin and destination.

The screenshots above show an analysis in ArcGIS Pro, but this configuration works for all the various APIs across the ArcGIS platform where you can access the Network Analyst route solver.

Learn more about the route solver in ArcGIS Pro , in the ArcPy site package , and the ArcGIS developer APIs .

A real-world example

Unfortunately, real-world data is usually a little more complicated, and it may take some effort to manipulate it into the right format for the Stops table. Next, you’ll look at a more realistic example.

Suppose you have a dataset of commuters with their assigned work sites and another dataset with the locations of the work sites. You want to calculate the route and mileage of each commuter to their work site.

You want to add each commuter and their assigned work site to the Stops input table for the route analysis. Because you want a separate route for each commuter to their work site, you must use a unique RouteName field value for each commuter-work site pair. You’ll learn how to set this up in a moment, but first, the table below shows the output you want to achieve:

The Stops table has eight stops: four for each of the four commuters and four for the work sites each commuter is assigned to. Since two commuters work at the same site (Excellent Elementary), that site is included in the Stops table twice, once for each worker assigned there.

Each commuter-work site pair has a unique RouteName field value to ensure that there’s a separate route connecting each commuter and their work site. Since the commuter names are unique, you can use them for the RouteName values, but you could use anything, as long as each origin and its assigned destination have the same value and that value is unique to the pair.

The map below shows the resulting routes:

To load the Stops table from the original inputs, you have to do a bit of data manipulation.

When loading the commuters, you can use field mapping to transfer the commuter’s name from the original dataset to the Name and RouteName fields in Stops. In ArcGIS Pro, this is accomplished using the Add Locations tool.

Loading the work sites is trickier because you must make a copy of each work site for each commuter who works there. You can do this using a one-to-many join with the Add Join tool.

Joining the Commuters table to WorkSites using a one-to-many join results in a copy of each work site for each commuter assigned there. The fields on the right side of the table come from the joined Commuters table.

Now you can load the joined WorkSites table into the Stops table for the Route analysis. Use field mapping to map the WorkSites table’s Name field (the work site’s name) to the Stops table’s Name field and the joined Commuters table’s Name field (the commuter’s name) to the Stops table’s RouteName field. With the Add Locations tool in ArcGIS Pro, it looks like this:

As shown earlier, the resulting Stops table includes an entry for each commuter and an entry for each commuter’s work site with the RouteName field used to define origin-destination pairs.

Ready-to-use tools to solve preassigned origin-destination pair problems

Manually configuring your data in the format described above can be challenging. However, ready-to-use tools for solving preassigned origin-destination pair problems are available in the Map Viewer and ArcGIS Pro. These tools use the route solver, but they simplify setting up the inputs.

Solve preassigned origin-destination pair problems in Map Viewer

The Calculate Travel Cost tool in Map Viewer in ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise is specifically designed to calculate routes between origins and destinations. You can specify matching ID fields in the input origins and destinations to define which origin is paired with which destination.

If you’re a developer, you can also access this tool with ArcGIS REST API and ArcGIS API for Python .

Solve large preassigned origin-destination pair problems in ArcGIS Pro

If you have a large set of paired locations or you’re struggling to set up your data as described above, you can download and use the Solve Large Analysis With Known OD Pairs tool from Esri’s large-network-analysis-tools GitHub repository .

This tool offers two options for setting up pairs of input locations:

• A field in the origins table defines the assigned destination (one-to-one).
• A separate table defines the origin-destination pairs (many-to-many).

The tool improves performance by solving the routes in parallel. It’s usable out of the box in ArcGIS Pro with no coding required, but it’s also open-source Python code you can modify to suit your needs.

You can calculate the travel time, distance, and route paths between paired locations using the ArcGIS Network Analyst route solver. You can configure the analysis manually, or you can use ready-to-use tools in the Map Viewer or ArcGIS Pro. Give it a try!

If you have questions or suggestions about this workflow, reach out on Esri Community . We would love to hear from you!

Quick Facts about Melbourne

1. pro: warm climate.

Melbourne is famous for its warm and sunny climate. The city has a subtropical climate that is characterized by hot, humid summers and mild winters. With an average of 234 sunny days per year,  Melbourne’s weather is ideal for outdoor activities, especially water-based activities such as swimming, boating, and fishing. The city’s beaches, rivers, and lakes offer opportunities for water-based activities year-round. 

Deciding between renting or buying your next home?

Melbourne is located on the east coast of Florida, which means it’s at risk of hurricanes. It’s important to be aware of the hurricane season, which runs from June to November. While the city has a strong infrastructure to handle these natural disasters, residents should be prepared with emergency supplies and have a plan in place. Some insurance providers may also charge higher premiums for homes in hurricane-prone areas. It’s important to note that not all hurricanes make landfall in Melbourne, and the city has experienced only a few major storms in recent history. However, residents should still take the threat seriously and stay informed through local news and weather reports. 

3. Pro: Beautiful beaches

Living in Melbourne means you have easy access to beautiful beaches, perfect for a relaxing day out or a fun-filled weekend. The city’s long coastline boasts miles of pristine beaches that are well-maintained and offer a range of amenities, including showers, restrooms, picnic areas, and playgrounds.

One of the most famous beaches in Melbourne is the Cocoa Beach, which is known for its warm, crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand. It’s an ideal spot for swimming, sunbathing, and surfing. 

4. Con: Wildlife encounters

Melbourne is home to a diverse array of wildlife. While some residents may appreciate the chance to encounter these creatures, others may find it disconcerting. Alligators, for instance, are a common sight in the area’s many lakes, rivers, and wetlands, they can be dangerous if provoked. Similarly, snakes and insects, such as mosquitoes and palmetto bugs, are also prevalent in the area. While many people learn to coexist with these creatures, others may find it difficult to adjust to their presence. It’s important to take precautions when dealing with wildlife, such as keeping a safe distance and seeking professional help if needed.

5. Pro: Low cost of living

One of the significant advantages of living in Melbourne is the low cost of living , allowing residents to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle without breaking the bank. Compared to other cities in Florida, Melbourne offers affordable housing, transportation, and other basic amenities. Housing costs are relatively low, with a median sale price of $300,000, nearly $142,451 below the national median .

6. Con: Traffic

Melbourne can experience heavy traffic during peak tourist seasons, especially on the roads leading to popular attractions such as the beaches or Kennedy Space Center. Commuting during rush hour can also be a challenge, particularly on major roads like Interstate 95 and U.S. Route 1. However, compared to larger cities like Miami or Orlando, the traffic in Melbourne is generally considered manageable. Locals often suggest planning routes in advance and allowing extra time for travel during peak periods. 

7. Pro: An incredible food scene 

“Melbourne has an incredible food scene with many family-owned restaurants, featuring unique craft dishes,” shares Halim Urban, Tour Director at Village Food Tours . “Ranging from fine-dining seafood restaurants to burger shacks, and barbecue joints. Overwhelmed with all of the amazing options? You can always join award-winning Village Food Tours on a culinary adventure.”

8. Con: Humidity

Melbourne’s location in the southeastern part of the United States, coupled with its proximity to the ocean, means that humidity is a significant factor in the city’s climate. While some people find the high humidity levels uncomfortable, others may appreciate the benefits it can bring. It’s important to prepare for the humidity if you plan on living in Melbourne, especially during the summer months when humidity levels can be particularly high. 

9. Pro: Things to do

“There are several amazing activities on the Space Coast. Fishing, golfing, kayaking, and days on the beach, all followed by seafood eats,” says Halim Urban. “The Brevard Zoo is one of the best in the country. Parks and downtown areas with boutique and antique shops, concert venues, and historical playhouses.” 

Melbourne is also located close to other popular destinations in Florida, such as Orlando and Miami . This makes it easy to take day trips or weekend getaways to other parts of the state.

House hunting made easy

10. con: limited public transportation.

Melbourne’s public transportation system is not as extensive as some other major cities in the US, making it a challenge for people who rely on public transportation to get around. The public transportation system primarily consists of buses, with limited options for train or subway services. For those who prefer not to drive, this can be a disadvantage, as they may have difficulty accessing certain areas of the city.
