For example, sum total travel in both directions.
Arguments
- x
A data frame or SpatialLinesDataFrame, representing an OD matrix
- attrib
A vector of column numbers or names, representing variables to be aggregated. By default, all numeric variables are selected. aggregate
- id1
Optional (it is assumed to be the first column) text string referring to the name of the variable containing the unique id of the origin
- id2
Optional (it is assumed to be the second column) text string referring to the name of the variable containing the unique id of the destination
- stplanr.key
Optional key of unique OD pairs regardless of the order, e.g., as generated by
od_id_max_min()orod_id_szudzik()
Value
oneway outputs a data frame (or sf data frame) with rows containing
results for the user-selected attribute values that have been aggregated.
Details
Flow data often contains movement in two directions: from point A to point B and then from B to A. This can be problematic for transport planning, because the magnitude of flow along a route can be masked by flows the other direction. If only the largest flow in either direction is captured in an analysis, for example, the true extent of travel will by heavily under-estimated for OD pairs which have similar amounts of travel in both directions. Flows in both direction are often represented by overlapping lines with identical geometries which can be confusing for users and are difficult to plot.
