7. Transportation distribution - ScandinavianSection-UCLA/hGIS_ETK GitHub Wiki

With transportation data for each route segment, it is interesting to look at the distribution of means of transportation he used. This may be presented both in terms of total distance and number of times a means of transportation was used.

  1. The “Summarize” function in the attribute table is used on the transportation field by right-clicking on the field heading > “Summarize”. A count field will automatically be part of the output table, but we need to specify that we also want to display the sum of the “length” field.


  1. The data generated in step 1 is for the entire period. We are also interested in how it has changed over time, and have chosen to look at it by what place he lived. For that, before summarizing the transportation field the way we did in step 1, all the records of a certain origin was selected. “Select by attribute” > (“Stop” = “Gjellerup”). Separate tables for the five different places he lived is exported.
