Author(s): Dwight S. Danie, Osmel Lopez, Sifu Zhou

This study uses ArcView and ArcView Network Analyst to display, at a U.S. Census Block level, the average walking distance from WAGES (Work and Gain Economic Self-Sufficiency) customers to the closest public bus stop in Miami-Dade County, Florida. We will discuss data acquisition and processing issues, the use of ArcView Network Analyst to find the shortest distance between multiple (thousands of) points, data aggregation, and presentation.
