topic maximize network analyst impedance value? in ArcGIS Network Analyst Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/maximize-network-analyst-impedance-value/m-p/124328#M1217 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello, </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I am working on a network routing model that will let users find the safest and quickest routes. I have a general question...how do you "maximize" impedance values? For example, I have length, travel time and population fields that I would definitely want to minimize. Most of my impedances/attributes work this way. But let's say you want to find the route with the most police stations along it (for safety purposes, not so you would maximize your chances of getting a ticket!). </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>How do you do this in Network Analyst? I don't see anything in the help on this.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks in advance for your help!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Aug 2013 18:36:55 GMT JimmyDobbins 2013-08-03T18:36:55Z maximize network analyst impedance value? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/maximize-network-analyst-impedance-value/m-p/124328#M1217 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello, </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I am working on a network routing model that will let users find the safest and quickest routes.
