Time and Distance Matrix

Brief Supply a road Driving Time and Distance Matrix for the purpose of academic research. Specification Number of unique locations: 1,803. NB Calculation and supply of reciprocal times and distances also required, i.e. time and distance from A to B and B to A (as these can often be different). Units: Time: Hours: Minutes: Seconds Distance: Kilometres Output: Microsoft XL or similar Note: The driving time should be taken at midday. Obvious Challenges It appears the number of data points in the matrix will be: 2 x ((1803 x 1803)-1803) = 6,498,012 Google or similar does not offer a feasible solution to produce a matrix this size. Process Phase I Please supply evidence of successfully producing similar work. NB work should be of similar scale. Please supply outline method and pricing. Phase II If successful, you will be supplied with a sample dataset (approx 100 sites) for completion and assessment. Phase III Contract award – agree timelines, budget, and detailed specification. Part payment will be considered. Phase IV Undertake project. Ongoing liaison if necessary. Phase V Delivery and final payment. Notes This research is for academic purposes only. The budget is therefore limited. Location data is longitude and latitude (degrees with six figure decimalised mantissa e.g. -8.690585, 52.427712). Deadline for submission of interest 1200 GMT, 29 June 2021. ENDS
