# Line Calculations

The line tool provides accurate calculations in the properties panel when planning an event. Providing: 

1- **Quantity of segments calculation**  
-Available on all barriers

2- **Travel time**  
-Available on pedestrian and vehicle routes

**Why:**

Line calculators for travel time, average speed, and segments (e.g. for barriers) are crucial for logistical accuracy, safety, and efficient resource allocation.

**How it works:**

- Segments:  
  1\) Choose any type of barrier,  place on the map and open the properties panel.  
  2\) The quantity of segments is calculated based on the segment length you input.

  **\*Segment sizes are standard sizes based on your selected unit of measurement system, not conversions. (Feet or Meters)**
- Travel time- This is calculated as you draw your route on the map and can be seen in the properties panel.
  
  1\) Place a pedestrian route or vehicle route
  
  2\) The travel time recalculates based on the average speed you input.

**\*The calculation is just a guide and does not take into account elevation.**

**FAQS:**

 **Do the calculations account for spacing/rounding?**  
We do not have a buffer for this. You will need to consider adding extra for spacing/gaps.

**Can I see these calculations in my CSV export?**  
Yes- these appear as separate columns: segment length, quantity, average speed (UoM), and travel time all appear in the CSV file.
