Accessibility: Travel Time-Cost to Major Maritime Ports (Kenya - ~1km) V2
The dataset represents an estimated cumulative travel time/cost (raster grid) accessibility map, for Kenya's Mombasa port. The map is an output of the sub-Saharan African Corridor, Mobile Warehouse Location pilot project.
The calculation of cost/time distance surfaces is based on some assumptions:
A. Road travel time/cost is computed for large trucks, it is assumed accessibility for large cargo freight vehicles, tertiary and local traffic roads are not included;
B. Lake and river navigation are treated as a surface (polygons) not taking into consideration navigation infrastructure (points).
The production of the travel time surfaces followed the steps: rasterization of transportation network vector layers and surfaces; production of cost/time layer; computation of a cumulative cost/time layer from ports (Ports Accessibility Map).
