Computing Job Accessibility with Integrated GIS and DBMS
Accessibility is the key concept for transportation and land use planning. However, the difficulty in computing accessibility measures has prevented it from playing a more central role in planning decision making. This paper explores the possibility to compute several kinds of job-accessibility measures with a coupling of user-friendly geographical information systems (GIS) and high performance database management systems (DBMS). The selected case is the Boston Metropolitan Region. The gigantic dataset, Census Transportation Planning Package (CTPP) for the metropolitan area, is stored in the Oracle sever. Both the database server and the GIS client are programmed to streamline the computation and the interaction with the user. This customized system can provide useful experiences for the public who want to know the accessibility impacts of various transportation and land use decisions.
