copied!<p>I think you are looking for something like <a href="http://www.mapnificent.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Mapnificient</a>: it shows you areas you can reach with public transportation in a given time (<a href="http://vimeo.com/16362921" rel="nofollow noreferrer">video</a>). </p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/RzpHe.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>A similar site with even more options is <a href="http://www.freemaptools.com/how-far-can-i-travel.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">How Far Can I Travel</a>. Here you can choose between inputting your speed of travel and a travel time OR a distance. Optionally, you can also specify how accurate you want the results to be.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ucyRC.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Now, how to create such examples yourself? See <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1042885/using-google-maps-api-to-get-travel-time-data">this related question</a> where the accepted answer explains step-by-step, how you can <a href="http://www.cannonade.net/geo6.js" rel="nofollow noreferrer">get travel time data from the Google Maps API</a>.</p> <p>Finally, for $8.75, you can buy the article <em>Stata utilities for geocoding and generating travel time and travel distance information</em> by Adam Ozimek and Daniel Miles that describes <code>traveltime</code>, a command that uses Google Maps to provide spatial information for data. </p> <blockquote> <p>The traveltime command takes latitude and longitude information and finds travel distances between points, as well as the time it would take to travel that distance by either driving, walking, or using public transportation.</p> </blockquote>
