onstove.LPG.add_travel_time

LPG.add_travel_time(model: onstove.OnStove, lpg_path: str | None = None, friction_path: str | None = None, align: bool = False)

This method calculates the travel time needed to transport LPG.

The travel time is calculated as the time needed (in hours) to reach the closest LPG supplier from each population point. It uses a point layer for LPG suppliers, a friction layer and a population density layer.

Parameters:

lpg_path: str

Path to the LPG supply points.

friction_path: str

Path to the friction raster file describing the time needed (in minutes) to travel one meter within each cell using motorized transport.

model: OnStove model

Instance of the OnStove model containing the main data of the study case. See onstove.OnStove.

align: bool, default False

Boolean parameter to indicate if the friction layer need to be align with the population data in the model.
