Important: This stage has been deprecated in the 12.2 release. TheTravel Boundary stage should be used instead when creating new dataflows.

Get Travel Boundary determines a drive or walk time or distance boundary from a location. This feature obtains polygons corresponding to an isochrone or isodistance calculation. An isochrone is a polygon or set of points representing an area that can be traversed in a network from a starting point in a given amount of time. An isodistance is a polygon or set of points representing the area that is a certain distance from the starting point. The Get Travel Boundary operation (also known as an iso definition) takes a starting point, a unit (linear or time), one or more costs and their associated tags as input and returns the resulting travel boundary. Cost refers to the amount of time or distance to use in calculating an iso. A tag is a string that identifies the cost and is used to match the corresponding result. Multiple costs can be given as input by providing the costs as a “;” delimited string.

Get Travel Boundary is part of Spectrum Spatial.

Note: Get Travel Boundary is only available as a web service. Get Travel Boundary is not available through the Java, C++, C, .NET, or COM APIs.
