DESCRIPTION
v.net.iso splits a network into bands between cost isolines (distance from center). Center nodes must be
opened (costs >= 0). The costs of center nodes are used in the calculation.
Costs may be either line lengths, or attributes saved in a database table. These attribute values are
taken as costs of whole segments, not as costs to traverse a length unit (e.g. meter) of the segment.
For example, if the speed limit is 100 km / h, the cost to traverse a 10 km long road segment must be
calculated as
length / speed = 10 km / (100 km/h) = 0.1 h.
Supported are cost assignments for both arcs and nodes, and also different costs for both directions of a
vector line. For areas, costs will be calculated along boundary lines.
The input vector needs to be prepared with v.net operation=connect in order to connect points
representing center nodes to the network.
The nearest center can be determined using either costs from the nearest center or costs to the nearest
center with option method.
By default, the iso band number is used as category value for output lines. With the -u flag, output
lines become unique categories and an attribute table is created with the fields cat, ocat, center,
isonr, isolbl. The ocat field holds the original line category in arc_layer, the center field holds the
center category in node_layer, the isonr field holds the iso band number and the isolbl field holds a
label for the isoband. Additionally, original line categories are copied from the input arc_layer to
layer 2 in the output, together with any attribute table.
Application of flag -t enables a turntable support. This flag requires additional parameters turn_layer
and turn_cat_layer that are otherwise ignored. The turntable allows to model e.g. traffic code, where
some turns may be prohibited. This means that the input layer is expanded by turntable with costs of
every possible turn on any possible node (intersection) in both directions. Turntable can be created by
the v.net module. For more information about turns in the vector network analyses see wiki page.
NOTES
Nodes and arcs can be closed using cost = -1.
Nodes must be on the isolines.
EXAMPLES
The map must contain at least one center (point) on the vector network which can be patched into with
v.net.

Isonetwork using time:
Subdivision of a network using distance:
# Spearfish
# start node:
echo "591280.5|4926396.0|1" | v.in.ascii in=- out=startnode
g.copy vect=roads,myroads
# connect point to network
v.net myroads points=startnode out=myroads_net op=connect thresh=200
# define iso networks using distance:
v.net.iso input=myroads_net output=myroads_net_iso center_cats=1-100000 costs=1000,2000,5000
The network is divided into 4 categories:
v.category myroads_net_iso option=report
# ... reports 4 categories:
#cat | distance from point in meters
#1 0 - < 1000
#2 1000 - < 2000
#3 2000 - < 5000
#4 >= 5000
To display the result, run for example:
g.region n=4928200 s=4922300 w=589200 e=596500

Subdivision of a network using traveling time:
Prepare the network as above:
# Spearfish
# start node:
echo "591280.5|4926396.0|1" | v.in.ascii in=- out=startnode
g.copy vect=roads,myroads
# connect point to network
v.net myroads points=startnode out=myroads_net op=connect thresh=200
Define costs as traveling time dependent on speed limits:
# set up costs
# create unique categories for each road in layer 3
v.category in=myroads_net out=myroads_net_time opt=add cat=1 layer=3 type=line
# add new table for layer 3
v.db.addtable myroads_net_time layer=3 col="cat integer,label varchar(43),length double precision,speed double precision,cost double precision,bcost double precision"
# copy road type to layer 3
v.to.db myroads_net_time layer=3 qlayer=1 opt=query qcolumn=label columns=label
# upload road length in miles
v.to.db myroads_net_time layer=3 type=line option=length col=length unit=miles
# set speed limits in miles / hour
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="5.0"
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="75.0" where="label=’interstate’"
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="75.0" where="label=’primary highway, hard surface’"
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="50.0" where="label=’secondary highway, hard surface’"
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="25.0" where="label=’light-duty road, improved surface’"
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=speed val="5.0" where="label=’unimproved road’"
# define traveling costs as traveling time in minutes:
# set forward costs
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=cost val="length / speed * 60"
# set backward costs
v.db.update myroads_net_time layer=3 col=bcost val="length / speed * 60"
# define iso networks using traveling time:
v.net.iso input=myroads_net_time output=myroads_net_iso_time arc_layer=3 node_layer=2 arc_column=cost arc_backward_column=bcost center_cats=1-100000 costs=1,2,5
To display the result, run for example:
# add table with labels and coloring
v.db.addtable myroads_net_iso_time columns="cat integer,trav_time varchar(20),GRASSRGB varchar(11)"
# labels
v.db.update map=myroads_net_iso_time layer=1 column=trav_time value="0 - 1" where="cat = 1"
v.db.update map=myroads_net_iso_time layer=1 column=trav_time value="1 - 2" where="cat = 2"
v.db.update map=myroads_net_iso_time layer=1 column=trav_time value="2 - 5" where="cat = 3"
v.db.update map=myroads_net_iso_time layer=1 column=trav_time value="> 5" where="cat = 4"
