Statistics & Centrality

The Statistics & Centrality panel reports network-wide metrics, node centrality, street orientation, and node-pair distances.

Note

Requires an active OSMnx graph. Project the graph and add edge lengths first for accurate metric results.

Basic Stats

Control Description
Area (km2) Network area; the refresh button estimates it from the graph.
Compute Statistics Reports node/edge counts, total and average edge length, average degree, circuity, intersection and dead-end counts, and densities per km².

Circuity

Control Description
Calculate Circuity Reports the average circuity (network vs straight-line distance ratio).

Centrality

Control Description
Kind Centrality measure (e.g. betweenness, closeness).
Weighted Use edge weights.
Fast Use a fast approximation.
Compute Centrality Computes the chosen measure onto the nodes.

Orientation Analysis

Control Description
Orientation Entropy Compute the street-orientation entropy.
Bearing Distribution Compute the distribution of edge bearings.
Bins Bin count for the orientation rose.
Render Rose to Image Render an orientation rose as an image.

Node-Pair Distances

Control Description
Node A / Node B The two nodes (eyedroppers pick them in the viewport).
Compute Distances Reports straight-line, network, and travel-time distances plus circuity.
