mobi.mapr uses hexagons to map mobility at a small scale, independent of administrative boundaries. After all, mobility does not stop at municipal or county borders.

The hexagons have a side length of approximately 200 meters, enabling a realistic assessment of local mobility. This reveals differences within cities or regions that often remain hidden when viewed at larger scales.

Administrative boundaries are nevertheless relevant—especially for political and planning decisions. To this end, the results from the individual hexagons are aggregated into larger units such as municipalities, counties, or states and weighted by population.

Both views are available in the tool and switch automatically with the zoom level.
