Mean wait time vs. mean headway #76

@smmaurer

Description

@smmaurer

When UrbanAccess creates connector edges for agents moving from the base network to the transit network, the default impedance is the mean headway at a given transit stop.

This happens in urbanaccess.integrate_network(), and current options are mean, std, min, and max, defined here: network.py#L103.

I'd like to propose adding an option for half of the mean, which would be a better approximation for the average expected wait time. It's also possible to achieve this through post-processing of the integrated network, but automatic calculation of it might be nice!

This is related to issues #36 and #51, i think.
