With the accurate walk-times that Walkalytics offers, the application areas are virtually unlimited. Here are three examples:

Quality of Service Coverage for Public Transportation

Do all your constituents have adequate access to public transport? – For assessing the coverage quality of your public transportation network, it is important to have accurate data on passenger walking distances to and from the nearest station. An additional factor is whether the closest station is a high-frequency train-station or a low-frequency bus stop. Based on up to tens of thousands of public transport stations, we calculate high-resolution quality grade zones based on the proximity and frequency of public transport stops.

Real Estate Rating

As a real-estate professional you know that the top three items of primary importance in your business are: location, location, location. A large element of the location’s value is the proximity of local services such as shops, schools, recreation areas, services and public transport. With our walk-time analysis and grading, we can provide up-to-date and accurate indicators for the accessibility of local services. Do you manage millions of properties? No problem! We’ll take care of it thanks to our scalable computation infrastructure.

Location, location, location: nearby amenities are an important factor in real estate valuation.

Accurate Nearby Searches

Have you ever tried a mobile app with built-in location services, showing you nearby cafes, restaurants or ATMs? Usually, the proximity of these points of interest is based on a simple circle around your current position. With Walkalytics, you are only shown amenities that are genuinely within walking distance – not across the river, on the other side of the highway or blocked by other obstacles.

Your users are not birds – why should you trust the crow’s flight for your mobile apps?
