Applications In GIS (GIS5100): Lab 5

In this week's lab, we learned about spatial accessibility and applying the network analysis tools to measure the distance and travel time of the spatial access. This spatial accessibility model shows a before/after of  the ACC Cypress Creek Campus closure and its impact on the accessibility of the ACC campus system. The Service Area analysis was used to created the Drive Time data ranges for both maps. The Closest Facility analysis was also applied to data which we were able to obtained a before/after of the students' drive time. By closing the Cypress Creek Campus, the students who lived near the Cypress Creek Campus have increase on their driving time which ranges between 18 to 50 minutes and they would be relocated to the Northridge Campus.
