Ramblings, musings, and photos of my travels around the world

Air Traffic Visualization
Likes: watching the stream of eastbound transatlantic traffic in the U.S. East Coast's evening and the return spritz in Europe's afternoon; the way New Zealand and Hawaii stick out; also, it's just pretty to look at... Dislikes: the fact that domestic air travel (U.S., E.U., and Japan) is so tied to the diurnal cycle. I guess peaking just irks the transportation planner in me. I don't think red-eyes are anyone's favorite, but look at all that unused right-of-way! ;-)
