A journey through aviation data
This is the website for the book “A journey through aviation data”, a project started by a team of four aviation enthusiasts, working in the field of aviation and sharing a common objective to share open knowledge about all what is available to analyse aviation data.
The purpose of this book is to
- recall background knowledge required to work with aviation data;
- present the most common data sources, API and formats;
- introduce computational frameworks that make it possible to easily handle aviation related data, with a focus on the Python, R and Observable languages;
- showcase common data visualization frameworks on usual applications;
- recommend good practices to share new data, code and results.
