Beta - Detecting Landing/TakeOff Runway Script
« on: December 04, 2011, 03:01:15 AM »
In the process of improving RadarBox data quality we are developing some routines to detect in which runway a specific is landing/takeoff. These routines will be used to create a LNG/TKO history table that will later been used by the client application.

It will also be used to aumatically correct errors on the fnumber/origin/destination to automatically correct for database errors.

At this stage we would ask our users to try the routines below and check for errors.
Please note they are on beta stage at this time so errors are possible.
These routines use a very complex algorithm which could be improved.

Heathrow Arrivals:

Note 1: just change the ICAO code of an airport to get data for that airport.
Note 2: we are still working on the departure runway script.

I presume at this stage the routes are still under development and this only covers ADS-B flights in areas with good radarbox network coverage.

On the EGLL table we had this one for a BA maintenance/training flight
2011-12-03 22:24:26 EGLL27R BAW9271 A321 G-EUXI EGPH-EGKK 1450 400CEB 268 121 -704

On the KJFK table we had the following:
2011-12-04 03:02:53 KJFK31R VRD260 A320 N843VA KSFO-KLAS 1675 AB8CDA 301 147 -1088
VRD260 is a multi-sector route KSFO-KLAS-KJFK according to Flightaware

2011-12-04 01:15:25 KJFK22L EVA32 B77W B-16710 RCTP-KEWR 1850 8990D9 210 161 -768
this flight is actually RCTP-KJFK

2011-12-03 17:27:11 KJFK04R AAL95 B752 N177AN EGCC-KBOS 1925 A1333B 30 185 -384
This flight is actually LEMD-KJFK

2011-12-03 22:48:52 KJFK22L FDX9733 MD11 N584FE EDFH-TJSJ 1875 A78546 210 178 -576
This appears from flightaware to be a charter one off operating EDDF-KJFK-KHSV

On the EBBR table is the following:
2011-12-03 11:04:05 EBBR25R KAL255 B744 HL7467 RKTU-PANC 2675 71BC67 245 130 -832
This is a multi-sector flight with four 'via' airports  RKTU-PANC-KDFW-KATL-KJFK-EBBR

As for EDDV:

It would be a great idea to apply a small plausibility check filter, because RW 27C is for Airframes up to 7,5 tons MTOW only. No commercial airliner with will land on this runway, especially due to the fact, that it is only 780 metres long. Watch the EDDV fact site: http://www.hannover-airport.de/index.php?id=2060&L=1

Checking of DLH046

I have it as flight from EDDF to EDDV, in your list it is as flight from EDDM to EDDH, which is false. Landed on RW27C, which is false because was performed with a B735. But it did land on RW 27R, which is very close to RW 27C.

WSe have further improved the script. It is now organized in Departures/Arrivals.
We already noticed there are errors with the routing indication and we will work on this tomorrow.

Please check it at (just change EGLL for any airport code):

Waiting for your feedback.

Very good - would it be possible to add a Local Time column at all?

The problem with RW 27C und 27R at EDDV is still there.

Having had a detailed look.  It basically cannot diferentiate parallel runways and it seems a lucky dip which one it shows or even if it shows the correct flow direction (take offs showing on the 09s when they actually went with all the others off of the 27s).  This will require a lot more work.  At Heathrow the Departures script shows many doubles and at the moment one arrival (BAW337).  I have also noted the occasional hex code confusion design limitation and many many many actual arrivals are just plain missing.  In its current form it could only be considered a guide.  It would require alot of further refinement/rewriting if it is ever to be considered as a full solution for a professional client.

Good to see -actually not good to see- , that the "false" runway problem doesn't exist for EDDV only. The departure seems to work better, due to the fact, that there only a few 27C where should be 27R. As ACW stated, a lot of working -ours have to be spend in the development of this new feature until it is really useful.

We are working on all these items and improving the script.

ACW mentioned it was detecting a departure as an arrival but that it false: the problem is with the route indication which is incorrect. That was in fact a landing. We are implementing some algorithms to auto correct the routes based on LNG/TKO data.

Regarding the false runways: there is nothing we can about it since this false information comes from aircraft position shifts. Maybe we will have to hide the runway information (better not to show any than to show 1 error in 99 correct cases).

More news to come.

A lot of changes were implemented on the algorithms today.
The database on these tables was deleted and we started from scratch, with the new routines, 30 mins ago.
Please try to check the tables for errors. Note that it is important that these routines work as autmatic Flight number/Origin/Destination retrieval will come from them (against several other sources). Objective is not to have wrong org/dst info on the databases.

One single problem: due to some aircraft IRS drift it is impossible to assure at 100% the landing/departing runway. Only option is to show this info with a remark.

Again tks for your help.

First: The number false RW27C entries has decreased dramatically. I hope this isn't just a coincidence.

Second: But now I can see several double entries in the departure table. Here are some examples:

Aer Lingus flight 818 which is Cork to Gatwick is shown to have landed instead at Biggin Hill-EGKB.  Other websites confirm it did operate its normal routing to Gatwick.

Further confusing the issue, here is the EIN 818 departure from Cork.  You will see that although the time is significantly different, the Altitude, Heading (surely Track??), Speed and VS are identical to the spurious Biggin Hill arrival shown above.

Further Cork has Runway 17/35 which these aircraft are said to have departed and a shorter 07/25.

The Heading (Track) of 222 degree and 258 degrees shown for these departures do not match up with a runway 17 departure and in the first case would be ploughing across the grass.
