Morocco Accessibility Model

This model measures travel time from villages in Tinghir Province, Morocco, to 3 key services of interest: health services, markets (commune centres), and schools. Travel mode is driving*.

*Walking will be modeled for villages over 5km from a road. This function is not currently in the model.

Project Phases:

  • 1 | import and clean MAR network

  • 2 | snap origins and destinations to network (x3 for each facility)

  • 3 | run OD matrix to calculate driving travel time from each O to D. output is one value per each OD pair.

  • 4 | export each set of travel times to .csv and validate in QGIS

  • 5 | * Walking time model - create road features for areas over 5km from the network Graph

  • 6 | * Create Graph of walking time and add to driving Graph.

  • 7 | * Re-run steps 1-4 with new Graph object

  • 8 | * Join origins and destinations names columns to OD matrix and export output. Current functionality not available in gostnets.

  • *** phase has not been implemented
