To both identify and report on disruption events across the aviation sector, the Department for Transport requires access to an interactive online data portal that displays flight-level punctuality data.
The online data portal must provide access for the DfT to view both;
– Live and historic data (from 1 January 2024 as a minimum) of flight statuses (on-time (scheduled, departed, arrived), delayed, cancelled, diverted) and
– Aggregated statistics to monitor the performance of airports and airlines during periods of disruption.
The Service will include full membership to an online data portal which the DfT will be able to access Live data via up to ten user accounts. The Historical data is only required by analysts and can be restricted to up to 3 user accounts.
If you already deal with such data, it would be a relatively simple task to spin up a portal with authentication that allowed the client to see this data in whatever format they wanted. That ability to customise would be a powerful USP.
