Method 方法

Positions come from the OpenSky Network (ADS-B), polled every 30 s from 06:30 to 22:30 Taiwan time. Every position north of 25.25°N, away from the shared end points (APU near Taipei, NK at Matsu), votes for the airway it lies closer to: it must be within 8 NM and at least 2.5 NM closer than to the other airway. A flight is W2 or W8 when at least 80% of its on-airway votes agree. It is Mixed when it switched between them, Other when it flew neither (for example direct routing), and Unknown when there was too little data.

Each afternoon a backfill uses OpenSky's historical flights and tracks for the previous day. It fills gaps, and it covers the whole day if the live quota ran out ("daily mode").
