Estimate travel time for dismounts

Measure straight-line distance using the map scale and convert it with grid tools.

  • Use ~10 km/h as baseline  speed on flat, open terrain.
  • Adjust for terrain:
    •  Roads / open ground: maintain ~10 km/h.
    •  Hills, forests, etc reduce speed by: -30–50% speed.
  • Add time for obstacles (fences, rivers, buildings) requiring detours or crossings.
  • Adjust for unit load and type, as weight and role affect movement speed.
  • Compute travel time: distance ÷ adjusted speed.
