<abstract>
<p>The popularity of a neighbourhood is often explained by its perceived &quot;higher&quot; quality of life. Good access to shops, restaurants,
parks, etc., is seen as an indicator that reflects improved quality of life. We present a web-based tool for assessment of accessibility
to such services. The system evaluates in real time an area that is accessible using pedestrian, transit, and cycling infrastructure. The
accessible area is evaluated using &quot;quality of life&quot; indicators, such as the number of grocery stores, shopping and recreation facilities,
and local crime within that area. This tool sets itself apart from pre-computed and neighbourhood-level walkability indices, because
it makes use of detailed street-level data, rather than block-level generalizations. It uses real network travel time, and, when transit
data are provided, permits the creation and evaluation of accessibility areas for a combination of travel modes such as walking with
transit use.</p>
