### What does each setting mean?

#### Catchment (radius)

Defines how far from your location footfall will be considered.

- **Smaller radius (e.g., 30m)**  
  Measures footfall very close to your store (doorstep level)
- **Larger radius (e.g., 50m+)**  
  Includes nearby streets and surrounding area

---

#### Counting method

- **Weighted average** (recommended for most cases)  
  Considers all nearby cells, giving more importance to closer ones  
  → Best for realistic, balanced view of footfall
- **Maximum**  
  Picks the highest footfall value within the radius  
  → Captures the busiest nearby point (e.g., main street)

---

### Best practices (with real examples)

#### 1. High-street retail store

- Catchment: **30m**
- Method: **Weighted average**

Why: You want to measure footfall directly passing your storefront, not nearby parallel streets.

---

#### 2. Store near a major intersection (e.g., corner location in city center)

- Catchment: **50m**
- Method: **Maximum**

Why: The busiest footfall might be at the intersection, not exactly at your door. Maximum helps capture that peak opportunity.

---

#### 3. Shopping mall store (indoor location)

- Catchment: **30m**
- Method: **Weighted average**

Why: Footfall is more evenly distributed inside malls. You want a realistic average around your unit.

---

#### 4. Suburban store with imprecise coordinates

- Catchment: **50m+**
- Method: **Weighted average**

Why: If your location is slightly off, a larger radius avoids misleading low values.

---

#### 5. Benchmarking multiple locations across a city

- Catchment: **50m+ (consistent across all)**
- Method: **Maximum or Weighted (but keep consistent)**

Why: Consistency matters more than precision when comparing locations.

---

### Key tip

- Use **smaller radius + weighted average** for precision
- Use **larger radius + maximum** to capture peak potential

---

If you're unsure, start with:

- **30m + weighted average**  
  Then adjust based on how your locations behave (street vs area-driven).
