Air Traffic Patterns: International Airport Rankings and Busiest Air Routes around the World

Every day, all around the world, tens of thousands of aircraft take to the skies. For all these flights, when comparing their frequency or recurrence (combined with the number of passengers), it is possible to distinguish the destinations that travellers value the most, either for business or pleasure. These movements from one point to another of the globe, once formalized/materialized onto a map, reveal an astounding network, a huge and irregular meshing whose geometry (globally and locally) provides us with an entirely new vision of inhabited territories. Depending on the different forms and figures (patterns) that stand out against the background map, we can notice concentrated or high-density areas (densified mesh), geographical zones/regions of major interest, but also, conversely, other spaces that are partly neglected, ignored by the greatest number. That is precisely what this data visualisation sets out to show.
