Isochrone
How the isochrone enrichment works in Kogenta Connect workflows.
An isochrone generates a polygon representing the area reachable from a point within a given travel time or distance. This is essential for accessibility and catchment area analysis.
How it works
- You specify which query to enrich and which columns contain latitude and longitude
- You choose a transport mode (car, pedestrian, bicycle, etc.)
- You set the range - either a travel time (in minutes) or a travel distance (in meters)
- The enrichment generates a polygon showing the reachable area from each point
- The resulting geometries are added as a new column in the output
Use cases
- Mapping how far customers can travel to reach a store within 15 minutes
- Comparing accessibility between different locations
- Identifying underserved areas outside travel-time thresholds
Transport modes
Isochrone analysis supports the following transport modes:
- Car
- Pedestrian
- Truck
- Bicycle
- Scooter
- Taxi
- Bus
- Private bus
Range types
| Range type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Time | Area reachable within a given travel time | 10 minutes by car |
| Distance | Area reachable within a given travel distance | 5 kilometers on foot |
Configuration
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Source query | The query whose results contain the point data |
| Latitude column | The column containing latitude values |
| Longitude column | The column containing longitude values |
| Transport mode | How the person or vehicle travels |
| Range type | Whether to measure by time or distance |
| Range value | The time (minutes) or distance (meters) |
| Output column | The name for the new geometry column |
