Pilot analysis for TOD Score concept, which is a modified version of the 15 Minute City Index that emphasizes proximity to high-frequency transit and rail stations. Being within a 10 minute walk to frequent transit is weighted higher, as well as being very near rail stations, which are especially important fixed locations for TOD to be anchored. Data Glossary TOD Index Score - the final combined score of the amenities or destinations reached within the designated walk time.
