Point to Point Wizard: Overview


The Point to Point Wizard provides a way to record the drive time or distance between a selection of records and a specified centre point as a virtual variable.

When calculating the distance between a record and the centre point, the distance "as the crow flies" is used.  When calculating drive time, speed settings for different road types can be set.

This wizard performs best when dealing with either a small number of records or a course-grained geographic variable (see the Selection step for more details).  If results need to be calculated for a large number of records with a fine-grained geographic variable then the Drive Zone Wizard should be considered.
