Good day.

I am learning application Network analyst in the 3D.


I saw expression [SLength] / (3 * 26.8224)

I want to ask you, what does it mean this number 26.8224 in this expression ?

Please help me. It is very important to me.

Looks like an expression to set up walk times.

That number, 26.8224 is the number of meters you can walk in 1 minutes if you are walking at a rate of 1 mile per hour.

That is, one mile is 1609.34 meters and then divide by 60 will give you 26.8224


So the expression  [SLength] / (3 * 26.8224)

is calculating the walk time if you can walk 3 miles an hour where the SLength happens to be in meters.

yes, you can use speeds from 2.5 to 4 km/hr.  the 1 mile/hr seems to me is for a crowded area.

The previous expression was 3 miles per hour and NOT 1 mile per hour. Note it was multipled by 3.

The expression is fine. But as Srirama pointed out, 3 Km / hour may be slow unless you know that is the speed at which your pedestrians are walking. Normal walking is 3 miles an hour or 4.8 Km per hour. So you could change the 3000 to 4800.
