Display Name: GenerateServiceAreas
Description: Creates network service areas around facilities. A
network service area is a region that encompasses all streets that
can be accessed within a given distance or travel time from one or
more facilities. For instance, the 10-minute service area for a
facility includes all the streets that can be reached within 10
minutes from that facility., Service areas are commonly used to visualize and measure
accessibility. For example, a three-minute drive-time polygon
around a grocery store can determine which residents can
reach the store within three minutes and are thus more likely to
shop there.

Parameters:
Parameter: Facilities
Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Facilities
Description: The input locations around which service areas are generated. You can load up to 1,000 facilities. The facilities feature set has an associated attribute
table. The fields in the attribute table are described below.ObjectIDThe system-managed ID field.NameThe name of the facility. If the name is not specified, a name
is automatically generated at solve time.All fields from the input facilities are included in the output polygons when the Polygons for Multiple Facilities
parameter is set to Overlapping or Not Overlapping. The ObjectID field on the input facilities is transferred to the FacilityOID field on the output polygons. BreaksSpecify the extent of the service area to be calculated on a per facility basis. This attribute allows you to specify a different service area break value for each facility. For example, with two facilities, you can generate 5- and 10-minute service area polygons for one facility and 6-, 9-, and 12-minute polygons for the other facility.Separate multiple break values with a space, and specify the numeric values using the dot character as your decimal separator, even if the locale of your computer defines a different decimal separator. For example, the value 5.5 10 15.5 specifies three break values around a facility. AdditionalTimeThe amount of time spent at the facility, which reduces the extent of the service area calculated for the given facility. The default value is 0.For example, when calculating service areas that represent fire station response times, AdditionalTime can store the turnout time, which is the time it takes a crew to put on the appropriate protective equipment and exit the fire station, for each fire station. Assume Fire Station 1 has a turnout time of 1 minute and Fire Station 2 has a turnout time of 3 minutes. If a 5-minute service area is calculated for both fire stations, the actual service area for Fire Station 1 is 4 minutes (since 1 of the 5 minutes is required as turnout time). Similarly, Fire Station 2 has a service area of only 2 minutes from the fire station. AdditionalDistanceThe extra distance traveled to reach the facility before the service is calculated. This attribute reduces the extent of the service area calculated for the given facility. The default value is 0.Generally, the location of a facility, such as a store location, isn't exactly on the street; it is set back somewhat from the road. This attribute value can be used to model the distance between the actual facility location and its location on the street if it is important to include that distance when calculating the service areas for the facility. AdditionalCostThe extra cost spent at the facility, which reduces the extent of the service area calculated for the given facility. The default value is 0. Use this attribute value when the travel mode for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is neither time based nor distance based The units for the attribute values are interpreted to be in unknown units. CurbApproachSpecifies the direction a vehicle may arrive at and depart
from the facility. The field value is specified as one of the
following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Either side of vehicle)—The vehicle can approach and depart the facility in either direction, so a U-turn is allowed at the facility. This setting can be chosen if it is possible and practical for a vehicle to turn around at the facility. This decision may depend on the width of the road and the amount of traffic or whether the facility has a parking lot where vehicles can enter and turn around. 1 (Right side of vehicle)—When the vehicle approaches and departs the facility, the curb must be on the right side of the vehicle. A U-turn is prohibited. This is typically used for vehicles such as buses that must arrive with the bus stop on the right-hand side. 2 (Left side of vehicle)—When the vehicle approaches and departs
the facility, the curb must be on the left side of the vehicle. A
U-turn is prohibited. This is typically used for vehicles such as buses that must arrive with the bus stop on the left-hand side. 3 (No U-Turn)—When
the vehicle approaches the facility, the curb can be on either side
of the vehicle, however, the vehicle must depart without turning
around. The CurbApproach attribute is designed to work with both types of national driving standards: right-hand traffic (United States) and left-hand traffic (United Kingdom). First, consider a facility on the left side of a vehicle. It is always on the left side regardless of whether the vehicle travels on the left or right half of the road. What may change with national driving standards is your decision to approach a facility from one of two directions; that is, so it ends up on the right or left side of the vehicle. For example, if you want to arrive at a facility and not have a lane of traffic between the vehicle and the facility, choose 1 (Right side of vehicle) in the United States and 2 (Left side of vehicle) in the United Kingdom.BearingThe direction in which a point is moving. The units are degrees and are measured clockwise from true north. This field is used in conjunction with the BearingTol field. Bearing data is usually sent automatically from a mobile device equipped with a GPS receiver. Try to include bearing data if you are loading an input location that is moving, such as a pedestrian or a vehicle. Using this field tends to prevent adding locations to the wrong edges, which can occur when a vehicle is near an intersection or an overpass, for example. Bearing also helps the tool determine on which side of the street the point is. BearingTolThe bearing tolerance value creates a range of acceptable bearing values when locating moving points on an edge using the Bearing field. If the value from the Bearing field is within the range of acceptable values that are generated from the bearing tolerance on an edge, the point can be added as a network location there; otherwise, the closest point on the next-nearest edge is evaluated. The units are in degrees, and the default value is 30. Values must be greater than 0 and less than 180. A value of 30 means that when Network Analyst attempts to add a network location on an edge, a range of acceptable bearing values is generated 15 degrees to either side of the edge (left and right) and in both digitized directions of the edge. NavLatencyThis field is only used in the solve process if Bearing and BearingTol also have values; however, entering a NavLatency value is optional, even when values are present in Bearing and BearingTol. NavLatency indicates how much cost is expected to elapse from the moment GPS information is sent from a moving vehicle to a server and the moment the processed route is received by the vehicle's navigation device. The units of NavLatency are the same as the units of the impedance attribute.

Display Name Break Values
Description: The size and number of service area polygons to
generate for each facility. The units are determined by the Break
Units value. Multiple polygon breaks can be set to create concentric
service areas per facility. For instance, to find 2-, 3-, and 5-mile service areas for each facility, type 2 3 5, separating the
values with a space, and set Break Units to Miles. There is no limit to the number of break values you specify. The size of the maximum break value can't exceed the equivalent of 300 minutes or 300 miles (482.80 kilometers). When generating detailed polygons, the maximum service-area size is limited to 15 minutes and 15 miles (24.14 kilometers).

Description: Specifies whether the direction of travel used to
generate the service area polygons is toward or away from the
facilities.
Away from facilities—The service area is generated in the
direction away from the facilities. Toward facilities—The service area is created in the
direction toward the facilities. The direction of travel may change the shape of the
polygons because impedances on opposite sides of streets may differ
or one-way restrictions may exist, such as one-way streets. The
direction you should choose depends on the nature of your service
area analysis. The service area for a pizza delivery store, for
example, should be created away from the facility, whereas the
service area of a hospital should be created toward the
facility.

Display Name Time of Day
Description: The time to depart from or arrive at the facilities. The
interpretation of this value depends on whether travel is toward or
away from the facilities.
It represents the departure time if Travel Direction is
set to Away from facilities. It represents the arrival time if Travel Direction is set
to Toward facilities. You can use the Time Zone for Time of Day parameter to specify whether this time and date refers to UTC or the time zone in which the facility is located. Repeatedly solving the same analysis, but using different
Time of Day values, allows you to see how a facility's reach
changes over time. For instance, the five-minute service area
around a fire station may start out large in the early morning,
diminish during the morning rush hour, grow in the late morning,
and so on, throughout the day.

Display Name Use Hierarchy
Description: Specifies whether hierarchy will be used when finding the best
route between the facility and the incident.
Checked (True)—Hierarchy will be used for the analysis. Using a hierarchy results in the solver preferring higher-order edges to lower-order edges. Hierarchical solves are faster, and they can be used to simulate the preference of a driver who chooses to travel on freeways over local roads when possible—even if that means a longer trip. Unchecked (False)—Hierarchy will not be used for the analysis. Not using a hierarchy yields an accurate service area measured along all edges of the network dataset regardless of hierarchy level. Regardless of whether the Use Hierarchy parameter is checked (True), hierarchy is always used when the largest break value exceeds 240 minutes or 240 miles (386.24 kilometers).

Display Name UTurn at Junctions
Description: Specifies whether to restrict or permit the service area to make U-turns at junctions. To understand the parameter values, consider the following terminology: a junction is a point where a street segment ends and potentially connects to one or more other segments; a pseudojunction is a point where exactly two streets connect to one another; an intersection is a point where three or more streets connect; and a dead end is where one street segment ends without connecting to another. Allowed—U-turns are permitted everywhere. Allowing
U-turns implies that the vehicle can turn around at any junction and
double back on the same street. This is the default. Not Allowed—U-turns are prohibited at all junctions: pseudojunctions, intersections, and dead ends. Allowed only at Dead Ends—U-turns are prohibited at all
junctions, except those that have only one connected street feature (a dead
end). Allowed only at Intersections and Dead Ends—U-turns are prohibited at
pseudojunctions where exactly two adjacent streets meet, but U-turns are permitted
at intersections and dead ends. This prevents turning around in the middle of the road where one length of road happens to be digitized as two street features.

Description: Specifies how service area polygons will be generated when
multiple facilities are present in the analysis.
Overlapping—Individual polygons will be created for each facility.
The polygons can overlap each other. This is the default. Not Overlapping—Individual polygons will be created such that a
polygon from one facility cannot overlap polygons from other
facilities. Any portion of the network can only be
covered by the service area of the nearest facility. Merge by Break Value—Polygons of
different facilities with the same break value will be created and joined. When using Overlapping or Not Overlapping, all fields from the input facilities are included in the output polygons, with the exception that values from the input ObjectID field are transferred to the FacilityOID field of the output polygons. The FacilityOID field is null when merging by break value, and the input fields are not included in the output.

Display Name Geomtery at Cutoffs
Description: Specifies whether concentric service area
polygons will be created as disks or rings. This option is applicable only when
multiple break values are specified for the facilities.
Rings—The polygons representing larger breaks exclude the polygons of smaller breaks.
This creates polygons between consecutive breaks. Use this
option to find the area from one break to another. For
instance, if you create 5- and 10-minute service areas, the
10-minute service area polygon will exclude the area under the
5-minute service area polygon. This is the default. Disks—Polygons are created from the facility to the
break. For instance, if you create 5- and 10-minute service areas,
the 10-minute service area polygon will include the area under
the 5-minute service area polygon.

polygons.
Unchecked (False)—Generalized polygons are created, which are
generated quickly and are fairly accurate. This is the
default. Checked (True)—Detailed polygons are created, which
accurately model the service area lines and may contain islands of
unreached areas. This option is much slower than generating
generalized polygons. This option isn't supported when using
hierarchy. The tool supports generating detailed polygons only if the largest

polygon to define its essential shape and removes other vertices. The
simplification distance you specify is the maximum offset
the simplified polygon boundaries can deviate from the original polygon boundaries.
Simplifying a polygon reduces the number of vertices and tends to

Parameter: Point_Barriers
Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Point Barriers
Description: Use this parameter to specify one or more points that will act as temporary
restrictions or represent additional time or distance that may be
required to travel on the underlying streets. For example, a point
barrier can be used to represent a fallen tree along a street or
a time delay spent at a railroad crossing. The tool imposes a limit of 250 points that can be added
as barriers.When specifying point barriers, you can set properties for each, such as its name or barrier type, using the following attributes:
Name The name of the barrier. BarrierType Specifies whether the point barrier restricts travel
completely or adds time or distance when it is crossed. The value
for this attribute is specified as one of the following
integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Restriction)—Prohibits travel through the barrier. The barrier
is referred to as a restriction point barrier since it acts as a
restriction. 2 (Added Cost)—Traveling through the barrier increases the travel
time or distance by the amount specified in the
Additional_Time, Additional_Distance, or Additional_Cost field. This barrier type is
referred to as an added cost point barrier. Additional_Time The added travel time when the
barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost
barriers and when the Break Units parameter is time-based. This field
value must be greater than or equal to zero, and its units are the same as those specified in the
Break Units parameter. Additional_DistanceThe added distance when the
barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost
barriers and when the Break Units parameter is distance-based.. The field value
must be greater than or equal to zero, and its units are the same as those specified in the
Break Units parameter.Additional_CostThe added cost when the
barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost
barriers when the Break Units parameter is neither time-based nor distance-based. FullEdgeSpecifies how the restriction point barriers are applied to the edge elements during the analysis. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (False)—Permits travel on the edge up to the barrier but not through it. This is the default value.1 (True)—Restricts travel anywhere on the associated edge. CurbApproachSpecifies the direction of traffic that is affected by the barrier. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Either side of vehicle)—The barrier affects travel over the edge in both directions.1 (Right side of vehicle)—Vehicles are only affected if the barrier is on their right side during the approach. Vehicles that traverse the same edge but approach the barrier on their left side are not affected by the barrier. 2 (Left side of vehicle)—Vehicles are only affected if the barrier is on their left side during the approach. Vehicles that traverse the same edge but approach the barrier on their right side are not affected by the barrier. Because junctions are points and don't have a side, barriers on junctions affect all vehicles regardless of the curb approach. The CurbApproach attribute works with both types of national driving standards: right-hand traffic (United States) and left-hand traffic (United Kingdom). First, consider a facility on the left side of a vehicle. It is always on the left side regardless of whether the vehicle travels on the left or right half of the road. What may change with national driving standards is your decision to approach a facility from one of two directions, that is, so it ends up on the right or left side of the vehicle. For example, to arrive at a facility and not have a lane of traffic between the vehicle and the facility, choose 1 (Right side of vehicle) in the United States and 2 (Left side of vehicle) in the United Kingdom.BearingThe direction in which a point is moving. The units are degrees and are measured clockwise from true north. This field is used in conjunction with the BearingTol field. Bearing data is usually sent automatically from a mobile device equipped with a GPS receiver. Try to include bearing data if you are loading an input location that is moving, such as a pedestrian or a vehicle. Using this field tends to prevent adding locations to the wrong edges, which can occur when a vehicle is near an intersection or an overpass, for example. Bearing also helps the tool determine on which side of the street the point is. BearingTolThe bearing tolerance value creates a range of acceptable bearing values when locating moving points on an edge using the Bearing field. If the value from the Bearing field is within the range of acceptable values that are generated from the bearing tolerance on an edge, the point can be added as a network location there; otherwise, the closest point on the next-nearest edge is evaluated. The units are in degrees, and the default value is 30. Values must be greater than 0 and less than 180. A value of 30 means that when Network Analyst attempts to add a network location on an edge, a range of acceptable bearing values is generated 15 degrees to either side of the edge (left and right) and in both digitized directions of the edge. NavLatencyThis field is only used in the solve process if Bearing and BearingTol also have values; however, entering a NavLatency value is optional, even when values are present in Bearing and BearingTol. NavLatency indicates how much cost is expected to elapse from the moment GPS information is sent from a moving vehicle to a server and the moment the processed route is received by the vehicle's navigation device. The units of NavLatency are the same as the units of the impedance attribute.

that blocks traffic across several street segments can be modeled
with a line barrier. A line barrier can also quickly fence off
several roads from being traversed, thereby channeling possible
routes away from undesirable parts of the street
network. The tool imposes a limit on the number of streets you can
restrict using the Line Barriers parameter. While there is no limit to
the number of lines you can specify as line barriers, the combined
number of streets intersected by all the lines cannot exceed
500.When specifying the line barriers, you can set name and barrier type properties for each using the following attributes:

Parameter: Polygon_Barriers
Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Polygon Barriers
Description: Use this parameter to specify polygons that either completely restrict travel or
proportionately scale the time or distance required to travel on
the streets intersected by the polygons. The service imposes a limit on the number of streets you
can restrict using the Polygon Barriers parameter. While there is
no limit to the number of polygons you can specify as polygon
barriers, the combined number of streets intersected by all the
polygons cannot exceed 2,000.When specifying the polygon barriers, you can set properties for each, such as its name or barrier type, using the following attributes:
Name The name of the barrier. BarrierType Specifies whether the barrier restricts travel completely
or scales the cost (such as time or distance) for traveling through it. The field
value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Restriction)—Prohibits traveling through any part of the barrier.
The barrier is referred to as a restriction polygon barrier since it
prohibits traveling on streets intersected by the barrier. One use
of this type of barrier is to model floods covering areas of the
street that make traveling on those streets impossible. 1 (Scaled Cost)—Scales the cost (such as travel time or distance) required to travel the
underlying streets by a factor specified using the ScaledTimeFactor or ScaledDistanceFactor field. If the streets are partially
covered by the barrier, the travel time or distance is apportioned
and then scaled. For example, a factor of 0.25 means that travel
on underlying streets is expected to be four times faster than
normal. A factor of 3.0 means it is expected to take three
times longer than normal to travel on underlying streets. This
barrier type is referred to as a scaled-cost polygon barrier. It
can be used to model storms that reduce travel speeds in specific
regions. ScaledTimeFactor This is the factor by which the travel time of the streets
intersected by the barrier is multiplied. The field value must be greater than zero. This field is applicable only for scaled-cost
barriers and when the Break Units parameter is time-based. ScaledDistanceFactor This is the factor by which the distance of the streets
intersected by the barrier is multiplied. The field value must be greater than zero.This field is applicable only for scaled-cost
barriers and when the Break Units parameter is distance-based. ScaledCostFactor This is the factor by which the cost of the streets
intersected by the barrier is multiplied. The field value must be greater than zero. This field is applicable only for scaled-cost
barriers when the Break Units parameter is neither time-based nor distance-based.

Parameter: Restrictions
Data Type: GPMultiValue:GPString
Display Name Restrictions
Description: The travel restrictions that will be honored by the tool
when determining the service areas. A restriction represents a driving
preference or requirement. In most cases, restrictions cause roads
to be prohibited. For instance, using the Avoid Toll Roads restriction will result in a route that will include toll roads only when it is required to travel on toll roads to visit an incident or a facility. Height Restriction makes it possible to route around any clearances that are lower than the height of your vehicle. If you are carrying corrosive materials on your vehicle, using the Any Hazmat Prohibited restriction prevents hauling the materials along roads where it is marked illegal to do so. The values you provide for this parameter are ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom.Some restrictions require an additional value to be
specified for their use. This value must be associated
with the restriction name and a specific parameter intended to work
with the restriction. You can identify such restrictions if their
names appear in the AttributeName column in the Attribute
Parameter Values parameter. The ParameterValue field should be
specified in the Attribute Parameter Values parameter for the
restriction to be correctly used when finding traversable roads.Some restrictions are supported only in certain countries; their availability is stated by region in the list below. Of the restrictions that have limited availability within a region, you can determine whether the restriction is available in a particular country by reviewing the table in the Country list section of Network analysis coverage. If a country has a value of Yes in the Logistics Attribute column, the restriction with select availability in the region is supported in that country. If you specify restriction names that are not available in the country where your incidents are located, the service ignores the invalid restrictions. The service also ignores restrictions when the Restriction Usage attribute parameter value is between 0 and 1 (see the Attribute Parameter Value parameter). It prohibits all restrictions when the Restriction Usage parameter value is greater than 0.The tool supports the following restrictions: Any Hazmat Prohibited—The results will not include roads
where transporting any kind of hazardous material is
prohibited. Availability: Select countries in North America and Europe Avoid Carpool Roads—The results will avoid roads that are
designated exclusively for car pool (high-occupancy)

Parameter: Attribute_Parameter_Values
Data Type: GPRecordSet
Display Name Attribute Parameter Values
Description: Use this parameter to specify additional values required by an attribute or restriction, such as to specify whether the restriction prohibits, avoids, or prefers travel on restricted roads. If the restriction is
meant to avoid or prefer roads, you can further specify the degree
to which they are avoided or preferred using this
parameter. For example, you can choose to never use toll roads, avoid them as much as possible, or prefer them.The values you provide for this parameter are ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom. If you specify the Attribute Parameter Values parameter from a
feature class, the field names on the feature class must match the fields as follows:AttributeName—The name of the restriction.ParameterName—The name of the parameter associated with the
restriction. A restriction can have one or more ParameterName field
values based on its intended use.ParameterValue—The value for ParameterName used by the tool
when evaluating the restriction. The Attribute Parameter Values parameter is dependent on the
Restrictions parameter. The ParameterValue field is applicable only
if the restriction name is specified as the value for the
Restrictions parameter. In Attribute Parameter Values, each
restriction (listed as AttributeName) has a ParameterName field
value, Restriction Usage, that specifies whether the restriction
prohibits, avoids, or prefers travel on the roads associated with
the restriction as well as the degree to which the roads are avoided or
preferred. The Restriction Usage ParameterName can be assigned any of
the following string values or their equivalent numeric values
listed in the parentheses: PROHIBITED (-1)—Travel on the roads using the restriction is completely
prohibited. AVOID_HIGH (5)—It
is highly unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads
that are associated with the restriction. AVOID_MEDIUM (2)—It
is unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads that are
associated with the restriction. AVOID_LOW (1.3)—It
is somewhat unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads
that are associated with the restriction. PREFER_LOW (0.8)—It
is somewhat likely the tool will include in the route the roads
that are associated with the restriction. PREFER_MEDIUM (0.5)—It is likely the tool will include in the route the roads that
are associated with the restriction. PREFER_HIGH (0.2)—It is highly likely the tool will include in the route the roads
that are associated with the restriction. In most cases, you can use the default value, PROHIBITED,
as the Restriction Usage value if the restriction is dependent on a
vehicle characteristic such as vehicle height. However, in some
cases, the Restriction Usage value depends on your routing
preferences. For example, the Avoid Toll Roads restriction has the
default value of AVOID_MEDIUM for the Restriction Usage attribute.
This means that when the restriction is used, the tool will try to
route around toll roads when it can. AVOID_MEDIUM also indicates
how important it is to avoid toll roads when finding the best
route; it has a medium priority. Choosing AVOID_LOW puts lower
importance on avoiding tolls; choosing AVOID_HIGH instead gives it a higher importance and thus makes it more acceptable for
the service to generate longer routes to avoid tolls. Choosing
PROHIBITED entirely disallows travel on toll roads, making it
impossible for a route to travel on any portion of a toll road.
Keep in mind that avoiding or prohibiting toll roads, and thus
avoiding toll payments, is the objective for some. In contrast,
others prefer to drive on toll roads, because avoiding traffic is
more valuable to them than the money spent on tolls. In the latter
case, choose PREFER_LOW, PREFER_MEDIUM, or PREFER_HIGH as
the value for Restriction Usage. The higher the preference, the
farther the tool will go out of its way to travel on the roads
associated with the restriction.

Parameter: Time_Zone_for_Time_of_Day
Data Type: GPString
Display Name Time Zone for Time of Day
Description: Specifies the time zone or zones of the Time of Day parameter.
Geographically Local—The Time of Day parameter refers to the time zone or zones in which the facilities are located. The start or end times of the service areas are staggered by time zone. Setting Time of Day to 9:00 AM, choosing Geographically Local for Time Zone for Time of Day, and solving causes service areas to be generated for 9:00 a.m. eastern time for any facilities in the eastern time zone, 9:00 a.m. central time for facilities in the central time zone, 9:00 a.m. mountain time for facilities in the mountain time zone, and so on, for facilities in different time zones.If stores in a chain that span the U.S. open at 9:00 a.m. local time, this parameter value can be chosen to find market territories at opening time for all stores in one solve. First, the stores in the eastern time zone open and a polygon is generated, then an hour later stores open in central time, and so on. Nine o'clock is always in local time but staggered in real time.UTC—The Time of Day parameter refers to coordinated universal time (UTC). All facilities are reached or departed from simultaneously, regardless of the time zone each is in.Setting Time of Day to 2:00 PM, choosing UTC, and solving causes service areas to be generated for 9:00 a.m. eastern standard time for any facilities in the eastern time zone, 8:00 a.m. central standard time for facilities in the central time zone, 7:00 a.m. mountain standard time for facilities in the mountain time zone, and so on, for facilities in different time zones.The scenario above assumes standard time. During daylight saving time, the eastern, central, and mountain times will each be one hour ahead (that is, 10:00, 9:00, and 8:00 a.m., respectively).One of the cases in which the UTC option is useful is to visualize emergency-response coverage for a jurisdiction that is split into two time zones. The emergency vehicles are loaded as facilities. Time of Day is set to now in UTC. (You need to determine the current time and date in terms of UTC to correctly use this option.) Other properties are set and the analysis is solved. Even though a time-zone boundary divides the vehicles, the results show areas that can be reached given current traffic conditions. This same process can be used for other times as well, not just for now.Regardless of the Time Zone for Time of Day setting, all facilities must be in the same time zone
when
Time of Day has a nonnull value and Polygons for Multiple Facilities is set to create merged or nonoverlapping polygons.

Parameter: Travel_Mode
Data Type: GPString
Display Name Travel Mode
Description: The mode of transportation to model in the analysis. Travel modes are managed in ArcGIS Online and can be configured by the administrator of your organization to reflect your organization's workflows. You need to specify the name of a travel mode that is supported by your organization. To get a list of supported travel mode names, use the same GIS server connection you used to access this tool, and run the GetTravelModes tool in the Utilities toolbox. The GetTravelModes tool adds the Supported Travel Modes table to the application. Any value in the Travel Mode Name field from the Supported Travel Modes table can be specified as input. You can also specify the value from the Travel Mode Settings field as input. This reduces the tool execution time because the tool does not have to find the settings based on the travel mode name. The default value, Custom, allows you to configure your own travel mode using the custom travel mode parameters (UTurn at Junctions, Use Hierarchy, Restrictions, Attribute Parameter Values, and Impedance). The default values of the custom travel mode parameters model traveling by car. You can also choose Custom and set the custom travel mode parameters listed above to model a pedestrian with a fast walking speed or a truck with a given height, weight, and cargo of certain hazardous materials. You can try different settings to get the analysis results you want. Once you have identified the analysis settings, work with your organization's administrator and save these settings as part of a new or existing travel mode so that everyone in your organization can run the analysis with the same settings. When you choose Custom, the values you set for the custom travel mode parameters are included in the analysis. Specifying another travel mode, as defined by your organization, causes any values you set for the custom travel mode parameters to be ignored; the tool overrides them with values from your specified travel mode.

Parameter: Impedance
Data Type: GPString
Display Name Impedance
Description: Specifies the impedance, which is a value that represents the effort or cost of traveling along road segments or on other parts of the transportation network. Travel time is an impedance: a car may take 1 minute to travel a mile along an empty road. Travel times can vary by travel mode—a pedestrian may take more than 20 minutes to walk the same mile, so it is important to choose the right impedance for the travel mode you are modeling. Travel distance can also be an impedance; the length of a road in kilometers can be thought of as impedance. Travel distance in this sense is the same for all modes—a kilometer for a pedestrian is also a kilometer for a car. (What may change is the pathways on which the different modes are allowed to travel, which affects distance between points, and this is modeled by travel mode settings.)The value you provide for this parameter is ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom, which is the default value.Choose from the following impedance values:TravelTime—Historical and live traffic data is used. This option is good for modeling the time it takes automobiles to travel along roads at a specific time of day using live traffic speed data where available. When using TravelTime, you can optionally set the TravelTime::Vehicle Maximum Speed (km/h) attribute parameter to specify the physical limitation of the speed the vehicle is capable of traveling.Minutes—Live traffic data is not used, but historical average speeds for automobiles data is used.TruckTravelTime—Historical and live traffic data is used, but the speed is capped at the posted truck speed limit. This is good for modeling the time it takes for the trucks to travel along roads at a specific time. When using TruckTravelTime, you can optionally set the TruckTravelTime::Vehicle Maximum Speed (km/h) attribute parameter to specify the physical limitation of the speed the truck is capable of traveling.TruckMinutes—Live traffic data is not used, but the smaller of the historical average speeds for automobiles and the posted speed limits for trucks are used.WalkTime—The default is a speed of 5 km/hr on all roads and paths, but this can be configured through the WalkTime::Walking Speed (km/h) attribute parameter.Miles—Length measurements along roads are stored in miles and can be used for performing analysis based on shortest distance.Kilometers—Length measurements along roads are stored in kilometers and can be used for performing analysis based on shortest distance.TimeAt1KPH—The default is a speed of 1 km/hr on all roads and paths. The speed cannot be changed using any attribute parameter.These value are specific to the services published with the ArcGIS StreetMap Premium data. The values will be different if you are using your own data for the analysis.If you choose a time-based impedance, such as TravelTime, TruckTravelTime, Minutes, TruckMinutes, or WalkTime, the Break Units parameter must be set to a time-based value; if you choose a distance-based impedance such as Miles, Kilometers, Break Units must be distance-based.Drive Time, Truck Time, Walk Time, and Travel Distance impedance values are no longer supported and will be removed in a future release. If you use one of these values, the tool uses the value of the Time Impedance parameter for time-based values and the Distance Impedance parameter for distance-based values.

Display Name Polygon Detail
Description: Specifies the level of detail for the output polygons.
Standard—Polygons will be created with a standard level of detail. Standard polygons are generated quickly and are fairly accurate, but quality deteriorates somewhat as you move toward the borders of the service area polygons. This is the default. Generalized—Generalized polygons will be created using the hierarchy present in the network data source to produce results quickly. Generalized polygons are inferior in quality compared to standard or high-precision polygons. High—Polygons will be created with the highest level of detail. Holes in the polygon may exist; they represent islands of network elements, such as streets, that couldn't be reached without exceeding the cutoff impedance or due to travel restrictions This option should be used for applications in which precise results are important. If your analysis covers an urban area with a grid-like street network, the difference between generalized and standard polygons will be minimal. However, for mountain and rural roads, the standard and detailed polygons may present significantly more accurate results than generalized polygons.The tool supports generating high-precision polygons only if the largest
value specified in the Break Values parameter is less than or equal to 15
minutes or 15 miles (24.14 kilometers).

Parameter: Exclude_Sources_from_Polygon_Generation
Data Type: GPMultiValue:GPString
Display Name Exclude Sources from Polygon Generation
Description: You can exclude certain network dataset edge sources when generating service area polygons. Polygons will not be generated around the excluded sources, even though they are traversed in the analysis.Excluding a network source from service area polygons does not prevent those sources from being traversed. Excluding sources from service area polygons only influences the shape of the service area polygons. To prevent traversal of a given network source, you must create an appropriate restriction when defining your network dataset.This is useful if you have some network sources that you don't want included in the polygon generation because they create less accurate polygons or are inconsequential for the service area analysis. For example, when creating a walk-time service area in a multimodal network that includes streets and metro lines, you should choose to exclude the metro lines from polygon generation. Although travelers can use the metro lines, they cannot stop partway along a metro line and enter a nearby building. Instead, they must travel the full length of the metro line, exit the metro system at a station, and use the streets to walk to the building. Generating a polygon feature around a metro line will be inaccurate.
