Understanding Urban Network Analysis toolbox

[AYARI ACHREF]

Hello everyone,

The toolbox allows the calculation of 5 indicators:

- “R” (Reach)

- “G” (Gravity)

- “B” (Betweenness)

- “C” (Closeness) 

- “S” (Straightness)

Can anyone give me an example from real life for each indicator? or some questions that the UNA toolbox can answer ?

Thank you very much
