Open Data and APIs

The public data set that we use is the “on-time database” published by the FAA. The data set is tricky to get all in one place since the FAA does not provide any decent API to it. The biggest issue is that we make real time predictions, so we needed a historical set of captured real time data, which we had to create ourselves.
