Drive time and distance matrix

Understanding Drive Time and Distance Matrices

Example:

What is a drive time and distance matrix?
Drive time and distance matrices are files that show the journey time and/or distance from one set of locations (origins) to a second set of locations (destinations). The travel times are calculated using a routing network with speeds allocated to each road. Find out more about speed allocation including using real speeds from GPS signals>>>

Enhanced Matrix Generator

The Enhanced Matrix Generator Module for GeoConcept provides more sophisticated drive time and distance matrix functionality. Batch symmetrical and asymmetrical matrices are supported. Start and destination locations can be specified by selection or query and results reported for all journeys or just those that do not exceed a specified time or distance.

The enhanced module also provides a range of export formats. Ideal for calculating the distance to every store from every postcode sector or the distance from delivery depot to every customer.

Matrix Software

Routing and time and distance matrix functionality is included in both Standard and Enterprise versions of GeoConcept desktop GIS.

When travel time is key (e.g. when organising sales or engineer visits) choose the fastest routes to maximise productive time for personnel and fast customer service.

When distance is the most important (e.g. to minimise fuel consumption) choose the shortest option

Matrix Data Products
These files provide a list of locations with the journey time and distance to every other location on the list. Typically this includes postcode sector to postcode sector or key town to key town. Bespoke options also available.
