Cargo updated

It's been a while since I updated the cargo dashboard in Tableau.
Now it has the latest 2015 data. These are complete for 31 states from Jan 2008 to June 2015. There is already data for 20 states in December 2015, but we'll have to wait for the full 2015 data.

See the link at the top of the page for access to Tableau.

If any of you are using SDMX to access these Eurostat aviation data (avia_gor_xx), note that they've changed a code for one of the dimensions: from FRM_CAF_DEP to CAF_FRM_DEP. Obvious! Apart from that the update process was smooth (thanks to the RJSDMX package maintainers in R, and all the other R and Tableau folk).

2014 data are complete, finally!

The passenger and cargo data from Eurostat have finally been updated, so I've updated them in the main dashboards. 2014 data are complete, but 2015 is still very patchy so it has not been loaded at all.

I have to say, refreshing the data in Tableau is a doddle!

European Cargo airports (2003-2013)

Finally, I have extended the data that's available in the cargo dashboard to cover 2003-2013, where underlying monthly data are available from Eurostat.

Check it out!

Seems to be some missing data for Sweden 2005-2007 - the data availability tab gives a clear account of which years are available for which States.

European Cargo airports - new dashboard. (2010-2012)

Turned out to be quite easy to adapt the passenger dashboard to do the same for the freight & mail data from Eurostat (avia_gor_xx). So see the link to the new dashboard above.

Flights: are commercial freight & mail flight departures (FRM_CAF_DEP in Eurostat terms)
Tonnes: are tonnes of freight & mail on board on departure (including direct transit cargo that stayed on the aircraft - FRM_BRD_DEP)
