Abstract
This article explores the theoretical foundations of isochronic mapping, its historical evolution, and its practical applications in modern urban and transportation systems. Beginning with the initial isochrone maps developed by Francis Galton, the study highlights how modern technological advancements have significantly improved the accuracy and usability of such maps. The paper analyzes four main factors influencing accessibility — land use, transport systems, time, and user needs — and their impact on the reliability of isochronic maps. In addition, the work discusses dynamic mapping based on real-time data, its use in emergency services, and approaches to reducing uncertainty.
