PrismMapper
Welcome to the PrismMapper web page. PrismMapper is a GIS toolkit for mapping and measuring individuals' accessibility to service facilities. The toolkit is built on top of ESRI® ArcGIS Desktop and can be downloaded as an ArcMap template. The toolkit is capable of calculating and mapping six measures to express the accessibility of service facilities to individuals at a certain location. These measures account for an individual's time budget, a maximum total travel time, a minimum activity duration (i.e. stationary time at a service facility), a minimum number of accessible facilities, and the opening hours of service delivery.
PrismMapper has been developed by Matthias Delafontaine within the scope of his doctoral research.
