Abstract
The daily functionality is the form of how people satisfy their needs in the different activities inside the city, throughout the day. Various scientific disciplines cover the matter, but they have problems with the social, spatial, and temporal scale required.
The research purpose and apply a method to measure and characterize the spatio-temporal behaviour of the daily functionality.
The methodology is based in a trip chain and a time geography approach to processing and to analyze household travel surveys of metropolitan areas. The analysis is for different types of day, activities (work, study, shop, social, etc), and social class. The cities with available information are; Barcelona, Santiago-Chile, and Bogotá. Some results for Barcelona (2001) show a high constriction of time to travel in relation to the duration of activities, and also a high spatial coexistence by certain activities throughout the day (dynamics centralities).
