CityChrone is an innovative open-source web app, leveraging the Meteor framework, designed to compute isochrones and assess public transport accessibility via interactive maps. It empowers users to modify transport networks in real-time, analyzing the impact on urban mobility.
CityChrone features three main sections: the starting page, the visualization page, and the scenario page. Each section offers an intuitive and informative interface, allowing users to explore and interact with various layers that describe the nuances of public transport performance.
CityChrone's backend is optimized for large data, minimal data transfer, and scalability. It utilizes server-side and client-side computations, including parallel computing through Web Workers, to provide a seamless experience.
