Abstract: This paper describes the construction of a global movements database as part of a European Commission project to deliver a global air traffic emissions inventory that should provide input to both policy makers and climate change scientists. The movements database consists of 4-D flight trajectories (latitude, longitude, altitude and time) enabling project partners to calculate fuel consumption and emissions. The collection of data for the year 2002 was spread over six representative periods of one week each for North America and Europe. Considering six weeks of data across the year allowed taking into account diurnal, weekly and seasonal variation in air traffic. The primary sources of data were EUROCONTROL CFMU and FAA ETMS data. For the rest of the world data were extracted from Back Aviation, a commercial database. Schedule data from Back Aviation database does not include any flight trajectory information. It was thus necessary to complete this data with flight route and aircraft performance information when available.
