Popis: Territorial accessibility analysis is a crucial component of urban planning, enabling decision-makers to determine new locations for urban infrastructure facilities to enhance residents' quality of life. The objective of this paper is to propose a methodology for performing territorial accessibility analysis that integrates data analysis techniques, such as clustering, with tools like isochronous curves and percentage ogive graphs. This methodology is evaluated through a case study in Villavicencio, Colombia. Results indicate that the proposed methodology can accurately assess territorial accessibility and, in the case study, recommend investments in health and firefighting services.
