Isochrone Map
An Isochrone Map draws travel-time zones — the area reachable within 5, 10, or 30 minutes from a point — for driving, cycling, or walking. It answers "how far can I get from here" and "who can reach this location."
Drop a point, choose the travel modes and time bands, and Mapji renders the reachability polygons over your styled base map.

Isochrone Map FAQ
What's the difference between an isochrone and an isodistance map?
An isochrone bands the area you can reach within a given travel time; an isodistance bands it by distance travelled along the network. Mapji draws either — pick time or distance when you set the ranges.
Which travel modes are supported?
Walking, cycling, driving, and public transit. Each produces a genuinely different catchment shape — a transit polygon often arrives as disconnected islands around stops, while a driving one stretches along fast roads. You can band by travel time or by distance travelled along the network.
