In this research, we construct a platform for analyzing access-friendly transportation for elderly people using GIS on agent-based model. Our interest is related to an aging world population and well-being of elderly people. We use GIS data of Ibaraki city Japan and study the outing rate of elderly people. We defined the number of times of outing per seven days as outing rate. The simulation is performed 63 times. It is comparable to 63days (nine weeks). As the results of simulation showed that the utility of experience from reaching destination and achieving their aim was more effective for next decision of old-old than that of young-old.
