Displaying the accessibility of network object types according to classes

You can visualize the accessibility of nodes, main nodes, or zones in PrT from a selected network object. To achieve this, you use the Isochrones time PrT attribute to classify a network object type.

In public transport you can visualize the accessibility of nodes, main nodes, stops, stop areas, stop points, or zones. To do so, classify a network object type based on the Isochrones time PuT or Isochrones number of transfers PuT attribute.

Notes: The settings for the different network objects are nearly identical. Here they are illustrated using the example of zones.

You can define the classified display for several different network objects types at the same time.

1.  On the Graphics menu, click Edit graphic parameters.

The Edit graphic parameters window opens.

2.  In the navigator, select the entry Zones > Display > tab Active.

3.  Select the Classified display option.

4.  Via the button, select the desired attribute.

5.  Insert the desired classes (Displaying classified objects based on attribute values).

6.  If required, specify settings for the classes via the Redefine all classes button.

Note: In the Text window pane you can specify for each class, how the network object are to be labeled. For example, here you can select Isochrones time PrT. Then for each zone the time period is displayed in which it can be reached.

7.  Confirm with OK.

8.  On the Graphics menu, click Isochrones.

The Graphics tools (Isochrones) window opens.

9.  Select the PrT or PuT tab.

10.  Make any further settings required (Displaying isochrones and accessibility in PrT and Displaying isochrones and accessibility in PuT).

11.  In the network display click the network object you want.

The zones are displayed in the classified drawing mode. The display visualizes the distances from the selected network object to all zones in the network.

12.  If desired, click on further network objects.

The classified drawing mode visualizes the distances to the closest selected network object.

13.  To close the Graphics tools (Isochrones) window, from the View menu, choose Tool window > Graphics tools.

Notes: The isochrones are still displayed after you close the window via View > Tool window > Graphics tools.

You can switch off the display by clicking the Initialize button. The results of all isochrone searches are then deleted.
