Drive time distances should be limited to 90 minutes. Realistic analyses beyond this threshold should be run using simple rings.
Valid numeric distances must be used when defining drive time values. Negative distances cannot be used.
The donut
option creates output polygons that are bands. For example,
if three radii are entered with values of 1, 3, and 5 minutes, three output bands would be created
with 0–1, 1–3, and 3–5 minute drive time trade areas.
Set the measure units to minutes if you want to create drive time trade areas.
To compensate for traffic patterns in drive time analyses, adjust driving distances accordingly. For example, if you are looking at a time of day when traffic patterns are heavy (such as rush hour) and the drive time takes twice as long, then you can halve the drive time to reflect this pattern.
The createDetailedBorder
option allows you to draw drive time boundaries that
will ignore areas that cannot be driven to. This may create holes in your drive time boundary layer.
Output options for this task include rendering an output image (outputTypes.getMapImage), creating
a feature class for subsequent analysis (outputTypes.getFeatureClass), and/or
creating a report (outputTypes.getReport).
If no output options are specified, the required output options are specified as follows.
If the renderingParameters
parameter is specified, the image output is requested.
If the reportOptions
parameter is specified, the report is requested.
If the outputAnalysisItem
parameter is specified, the output analysis feature class
will be stored in the repository. If renderingParameters
,
reportOptions
, and outputAnalysisItem
parameters are missing,
the feature class output is requested.
