About This dataset was produced as part of the ELFLYSVE research project, which investigates the potential of electric aviation in Sweden. One of the project’s work packages focuses on techno-economic modeling and optimization of airport energy systems, specifically their design and sizing to meet the requirements for electric aircraft (EA) charging. Since there is currently no commercial EA traffic in operation, the project developed a methodology to generate synthetic flight timetables. These timetables are based on probability distributions derived from historical air traffic data in Sweden. The historical flight data was provided by Luftfartsverket (LFV), Sweden’s air traffic management service provider, and includes all scheduled flights (anonymized aircraft identifiers) to or from Swedish airports for the years 2019–2023 (approximately 1.2 million flights). Methodology The methodology takes the perspective of an individual airport (i.e. incoming and outgoing aircraft), rather than trying to plan for a network of airports and routes for EA which is a highly complex and uncertain task. From the historical flight data, representative distributions were created for Number of arrivals Arrival time Turnaround time This open data repository contains five types of datasets, provided both for Sweden as a whole and for individual Swedish airports (ten datasets in total): (1) Weekday arrivals,(2) Monthly arrivals,(3) Arrival minute,(4) Turnaround time (full)(5) Turnaround time (clustered) The (full) notation in dataset (4) indicates normalization based on the entire turnaround dataset. The (clustered) version in dataset (5) uses normalization within clusters, where a cluster is defined as an hour interval. This clustering accounts for the dependency between turnaround time and arrival time (e.g., arrivals near midnight typically have longer turnaround times than those during morning peak hours). Dynamic programming was applied to the full turnaround dataset to identify clusters with similar turnaround times. These datasets serve as input for synthetic timetable generation, followed by EA route assignment and charging load simulations. Further details on the methodology and results will be available in a journal paper (submission in January, 2026). Data description (1) Weekday arrivals This dataset contains the normalised probability distributions of number of arrivals per day of the week: Sweden: norm_distribution_weekday_arrivals_SE.csv Individual airports: norm_distribution_weekday_arrivals_per_airport.csv Column Description Data type weekday Day of the week (0 = Monday, 6 = Sunday) Integer probability (or ICAO-code) Normalised arrival probability (for individual airports, this column contains ICAO codes) Float (2) Monthly arrivals This dataset contains the normalised probability distributions of number of arrivals per month of the year: Sweden: norm_distribution_monthly_arrivals_SE.csv Individual airports: norm_distribution_monthly_arrivals_per_airport.csv Column Description Data type month Month of the year (1 = January, 12 = December) Integer probability (or ICAO-code) Normalised arrival probability (for individual airports, this column contains ICAO codes) Float (3) Arrival minute This dataset contains the normalised probability distributions for arrival minute of the day: Sweden: norm_distribution_arrival_minute_SE.csv Individual airports: norm_distribution_arrival_minute_per_airport.csv Column Description Data type minute Minute of the day (0-1439) Integer probability (or ICAO-code) Normalised arrival probability (for individual airports, this column contains ICAO codes) Float (4) Turnaround time (full) This dataset contains the normalised probability distributions of turnaround time: Sweden: norm_distribution_turnaround_minutes_SE_full.csv Individual airports: norm_distribution_turnaround_minutes_per_airport_full.csv See explanation in Methodology section for the "(full)" notation. Column Description Data type minutes Turnaround time expressed in number of minutes (0-1439) Integer probability (or ICAO-code) Normalised probability of turnaround time (for the individual airport dataset, this column is expressed as the ICAO-code of each airport) Float (5) Turnaround time (clustered) This dataset contains the normalised probability distributions of turnaround time within clusters: Sweden: norm_distribution_turnaround_minutes_SE_clustered.csv Individual airports: norm_distribution_turnaround_minutes_per_airport_clustered.csv See explanation in Methodology section for the "(clustered)" notation. Column Description Data type airport (only in "...per_airport_clustered.csv") ICAO-code of the airport String hour_interval Hour interval of the cluster (e.g. 5-18) String turnaround_minutes Turnaround time expressed in number of minutes Integer probability Normalised probability of turnaround time within the specified cluster Float Additional notes This research was funded by the Swedish Transport Administration (TRV 2023/34443).
