Where have the Simple, Advanced and Batch tools gone?

Details of the new tools replacing the older algorithms from Oct-26 release

Version 3.3 of the add-in replaced them. The old TravelTime_Platform.tbx toolbox is now a Python toolbox, TravelTime.pyt, with every API parameter in one place. Each old tool has a direct replacement:

Old tool

Time Map Simple / Advanced

Time Filter Simple / Advanced

Travel Time Matrix Custom

The Custom tools have all the settings the old Simple and Advanced tools had, and more. For large jobs where speed matters, you can also use the new Core tools. See Core or Custom tools: which should I use?

Updating models and scripts

ModelBuilder models and Python scripts that call the old tools will stop working after you upgrade.

  • ModelBuilder: remove the old tool from the model, drag in its replacement from the TravelTime toolbox, and reconnect the inputs and outputs.

  • Python: import the new toolbox with arcpy.ImportToolbox() and call the new tool names. Parameter names have changed, so check each tool’s parameters in the docs.
