Abstract
Isochrone Mapping has been used since the late 19th century as a planning and visualization tool in various domains, such as transport planning and hydrology. In the past, isochrone calculation was based mainly on static properties and therefore also yielded static maps. This resulted in a potentially significant â and at the same time unquantifiable â degree of uncertainty. Today however, advances both in information technology and in the availability of input data allow much more nuanced views on the subject. This paper gives an overview of work on dynamic factors that contribute to uncertainty in isochrone calculation and mapping. Various application scenarios and their constraints are discussed, and open research challenges and possibilities identified. Finally, we present preliminary results from a practical approach to quantifying uncertainties in isochrone calculation for motorized individual transport based on Monte Carlo simulations and data from open routing APIs.
