I created a walk time map to show the proximity of services and businesses to my town's boat harbor. The City of Cordova is currently creating plans to update the infrastructure in and around the harbor. During the Summer months especially this is the busiest center of town where fishing boats are getting all sort of work done. Many of these boat are from other ports outside of Cordova and the crew that works aboard are non-residents without a car so walking time around the harbor determines a lot of what these people can and cannot access while in port.
I created a map note around the Cordova Harbor location and applied a layer which represented distances of walk time around this location. In the unique symbol options I changed the colors and opacity.
In three simple steps a walk time map is created! I really liked this tool and plan to use it further. I think some useful additions to this map will include what services are within each of these proximities.
