Evaluating an existing site combination

Lokigi can also help you to evaluate your current setup, helping you to provide data that supports a case for a wider programme of re-evaluation.

It’s also useful to be able to provide a baseline for comparison with any solutions created.

from lokigi.site import SiteProblem

problem_public_transport_extended = SiteProblem()

problem_public_transport_extended.add_sites(
    "../../../sample_data/devon_mius.geojson",
    candidate_id_col="Facility_Name"
    )

problem_public_transport_extended.add_region_geometry_layer(
    "https://github.com/hsma-programme/h6_3c_interactive_plots_travel/raw/main/h6_3c_interactive_plots_travel/example_code/LSOA_2011_Boundaries_Super_Generalised_Clipped_BSC_EW_V4.geojson",
    common_col="LSOA11NM"
    )

problem_public_transport_extended.add_travel_matrix(
    travel_matrix_df="../../../sample_data/devon_miu_travel_matrix_public_transport_extended.csv",
    source_col="from_id",
    unit="minutes",
    )

In this instance, we have 15 sites.

So when we solve, we simply solve for p=15.

In this instance, we’re passing in an optional ‘threshold_for_coverage’, which will flag if any regions have a travel time of more than 60 minutes from their nearest MIU.

solution = problem_public_transport_extended.solve(
    p=15,
    threshold_for_coverage=60, # OPTIONAL
    )
/__w/lokigi/lokigi/lokigi/site.py:491: UserWarning:

No demand data was provided. Demand from all regions has been assumed to be equal.If you wish to override this, run .add_demand() to add your site dataframe before running .solve() again.You can use the .show_demand_format() to see the expected format beforehand.

We might also want to explore the solution equity.

problem_public_transport_extended.add_equity_data(
    "../../../sample_data/Index_of_Multiple_Deprivation_(Dec_2015)_Lookup_in_England.csv",
    equity_col="IMD15",
    common_col="LSOA11NM",
    label="Indices of Multiple Deprivation",
    continuous_measure=True,
    reverse=False
    )
problem_public_transport_extended.plot_region_geometry_layer(
    plot_equity=True,
    plot_region_of_interest_only=True
    )

Let’s re-solve, overwriting our previous object.

solution = problem_public_transport_extended.solve(
    p=15,
    threshold_for_coverage=60, # OPTIONAL
    )
solution.check_solution_equity(return_plot=True)
groupings = {
    "IMD15 Highest Deprivation": [1, 2],
    "IMD15 Lowest Deprivation": [9, 10],
    "IMD15 Mid-High": [3, 4, 5],
    "IMD15 Mid-Low": [6, 7, 8],
}

solution.plot_combination_by_equity(figsize_multiplier=8, groupings=groupings, ncols=2);

Once we have a baseline, we can start using our comparison tools.
