I was wondering how to use odjittering in R with a fixed destination and random origins.
Possible applications:
Travel to school, to hospital, to bike shop, etc.
I have some roundabout way of doing this, such as creating a small polygon for the destination, but maybe that is not the most efficient way to do it :D
So, maybe providing a single fixed point could be the way.
@Robinlovelace , did you do this for Ireland?
An extra layer of this problem would be to apply on-the-fly a distance decay function, so that the random sub-points closer to the destination would have a higher probability to be selected than the random sub-points far away from the destination.
I think that this option makes sense when having a single fixed destination, but probably there are other uses for it.
What are your thoughts about this? It this another R pkg function, or options to include in the existing one?
