![]() You want to make some advertising at the nearby bus stops to invite customers to your restaurant just after they finished their day. Your pizzas are great, but the customers are still scarce. We’ll remove all layers except our first delivery zone - bike. It seems our first guess was the best, as for short durations, the area covered by bike is much bigger. You can also switch the search mode to arriving, in which case the time represents the arrival time. See how the polygon varies according to streets or obstacles, and how it differs from a simple radius. Try out a few more locations / time / transport type combinations. Compare what you’d get at 6:30 PM with what you’d get at 8:30 PM, time at which you can expect to do most of the deliveries. With “driving”, the hour of the day has a great impact because of traffic conditions. Click on the same point again, and compare the results. Change the transportation mode to “driving”, and we’ll see how things would be if our deliveries were made by car. Let’s study our delivery plan a bit more. Just to keep things clear, right-click on the Output layer in the legend, select Rename, and call the layer delivery zone - bike. If you want to actually save the results, you can right-click on the layer in the legend, and choose Make permanent to save the layer somewhere on your hard drive.įor now, we’ll keep it like this. This layer won’t persist once you close the project. One important thing : notice the small icon next to Output in the legend ? This means that Output is a temporary layer. Your project should look like this (note that the background may look different): ![]() Then, click on the map on a location where you could locate your restaurant. By clicking on the small arrow next to it, you can set the transportation mode to “biking” and the transportation time to 10 minutes. ![]() Start by zooming in to a city (choose a popular city like London or New York, so we are sure we’ll find some data later on).Īctivate the express time map tool by clicking on it’s icon. Thus, you want to visualize the area that could be covered by bike delivery in less than 10 minutes, as you want to focus on very fast delivery. Let’s imagine the following scenario : you own a new pizzeria and are thinking of setting up a delivery service. ![]()
