Airline Route Emissions for International Flights in Africa, 2020

The dataset contains CCD and LTO emissions for each airline and route from international flights in Africa in 2020. It was authored by Qiang Cui and is available under an Open Access license. The data provides a snapshot of aviation's environmental impact on the continent for a specific year.

Use Cases

• Compare airline environmental performance based on reported CCD and LTO emissions.
• Model the carbon footprint of specific international air routes in Africa.
• Analyze the distribution of aviation emissions across the African continent in 2020.

Strengths

• Focuses on a specific geographic region (Africa) and year (2020).
• Includes two distinct emission metrics (CCD and LTO) for analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
