Radius by time?

Postby SebagoLakeRanch » Sun Jan 09, 2011 10:19 am

Is it possible to draw a radius around a point by driving time? Maybe radius isn't the right word because it wouldn't form a circle. Lets say you wanted to offer services up to 2 hours away, how could you draw a map to show that area?

Under the Route Tab, total trip time is shown for each road route after calculation. By leaving the Start coordinates fixed and moving the Finish coordinates randomly by right clicking on the map, a pattern will develop.

Thanks, a little more manual then I was hoping but it will certainly work.
Here is how it turned out:
