2 Physical Accessibility Model Pakistan A Spatial Tool is developed to model and compare physical accessibility of all districts of Pakistan in order to aid humanitarian agencies for effective planning of relief activities. The output of this model will be one of the inputs to Final Accessibility Map of Pakistan that will be developed by Access Working Group UNOCHA, Pakistan which will also include accessibility in terms of security and risk factors. Model Description Accessibility model is developed using Geoprocessing tools of Arc Map 9.3 that generate an accessibility index for each district of Pakistan i.e. second level administration division in Pakistan. 1-Parameters Accessibility is impacted by a variety of factors; Parameters focused in this model are Road network access to the area and population that inhabits that area. Keeping in view the logic that areas having high population will require more road accessibility than districts having large areas but lower population density. 2-Inputs The major inputs are: -Road Network layer -Population Density (Land Scan data 2008) -District Boundaries -Motorway Interchange Points 3-Process Accessibility can be defined and interpreted in many ways; for this model it is considered to be a function of access to roads. In other words it is a comparison of accessible population of a district to total population of a district. 3.1-Deriving Accessible Areas By taking into account the road type, each road has been given a specific buffer distance to extract the accessible area. The buffer distance is based on the assumption that population within this range can easily access the road. The distances specified for buffer Analysis around each road type are indicated below. Road Type Highways Distance(Buffer) 5 km Motorways 0 km Primary Secondary 3 km 2 km Highways are double lane roads that are accessible on both sides at least by 5 km whereas Motorways are also double lane but not accessible except on interchange points so here no buffer is generated around Motorways. At Motorway Interchange points 10 km buffer is applied assuming 10 km area as accessible. Eventually buffers obtained from Highways, Primary roads, Secondary roads and Motorway interchange points are merged to derive accessible areas. 3.2-Extracting Accessible Population It is assumed that out of total population of district, population that underlies accessible areas (extracted in step 3.1) is accessible population. The accessible Population and district population for each district is worked out using Zonal Statistics as table tool. 1

3 3.3-Accessibility Index Total population and Accessible population of each district are joined spatially and index is computed termed as Accessibility Index. Accessibility index=accessible Population District Population 4-Outputs The value of accessibility index ranges from 0 to 1, which is then reclassified on 1-5 Scale where 5 represents the best accessibility scenario and 1 represents the worst accessibility scenario. (See Accessibility Ranking of Districts and Map at page 5, 6 and 7respectively). 2
