Abstract
Spatial accessibility is a powerful tool for understanding how access to important services and resources varies across space. While spatial accessibility methods traditionally rely on origin-destination matrices between centroids of administrative zones, recent work has examined creating polygonal catchments - areas within a travel-time threshold - from point-based fine-grained mobility data. In this paper, we investigate the difference between the convex hull and alpha shape algorithms for determining catchment areas and how this affects the results of spatial accessibility analyses. Our analysis shows that the choice of how we define a catchment produces differences in the measured accessibility which correlate with social vulnerability. These findings highlight the importance of evaluating and communicating minor methodological choices in spatial accessibility analyses.
