MFworks Tutorial – 06 Travel cost – path length

To determine the actual length of a path through a number of cells the Incremental Length operation is used. Incremental Length works similar to Incremental Linkage to the extent that Incremental Linkage is used implicitly to determine the linkage, from which the length is inferred. Incremental Length then applies the factor by which the cell resolution has to be multiplied to yield the length of the linear features in any cell.

Incremental Length cell values indicate factor for calculating length of linear features. © Thinkspace

It should be noted that Incremental Length calculates the factor for inferring the total length of all linear features in any cell.
