This issue is meant to help tracking the process of searching, selecting and generating the relevant explanatory variables (land use features) for modelling job accessibility as a key indicator.

But mobility and proximity exist in tension with each other: Places with many origins and destinations near one another tend to be places where surface transportation is slow; conversely, areas of rapid surface travel tend to be areas where origins and destinations are further apart. It is not immediately apparent which urban forms offer higher accessibility: areas of rapid surface travel and little proximity, or areas offering
high proximity of origins and destinations but slower travel
