Commercial Air Traffic Seen Around the World
October 8th, 2008 Posted in RePost by Someone Else
This computer simulation by Zhaw shows worldwide commercial flights over a 24-hour period. It’s been making the blog rounds lately. Watch as flights start in the morning in the western hemisphere, and as the sun starts to come up in the east, more flights begin in the east. I’m not sure if we’re seeing actual GPS traces or just interpolated flight paths from point-to-point data, but my guess is the latter. Does anyone understand the language on Zhaw?
