Have you ever wondered what flight routes around major airports looked like?
Moscow-based software engineer Alexey Papulovskiy has.
Papulovskiy spent a month gathering flight data on Plane Finder before mapping the data in Contrailz.
Using red for lower altitude flights and blue for higher, the map produces some very beautiful patterns of different flight paths across the world. It also allows us to visualize the “roads”, “highways”, “intersections” and “junctions” used by airplanes.
Take a look at the flight patterns above some major cities below or head over to Contrailz to explore other locations.
