Hi all,

I am working on a project about 15-Minute-Cities, where I am calculating 15 minute isochrones from various amenities in urban context. Therfore I am using different modes of transport.

What are the speeds for each of modes in the isochrones modul?

Are there some impacts (e.g. elevation, surface, etc.) on the speed by calculation of isochrones?

Thanks!  
Petar
