Roadmap
The plan is to release subsequent improvements of the Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI) data sets roughly every two months as data and validations become available.
Upcoming focus
The next planned updates aim to include the following improvements:
- Inclusion of new event types and occurrences:
- off-block
- in-block
- Flight Information Region (FIR) crossing
Candidate topics for future releases
In the longer term the OPDI aims to include the following improvements:
- Include more events
- start and stop of holdings
- Use third party trajectory data (aside from the available via OpenSky Network (OSN)).
- Validate flight events and measurements using third party data.
- Provide easy access to OSN state vector trajectories at 5-sec granularity
- Provide cleaned up state vector based trajectories, i.e. remove vertical glitches (via
filter()intrafficlibrary), associate meteorological information (viafastmeteolibrary), remove dirty trajectories (too small/short), …
