Flight matched contrails in ground based camera imagery over London between November 2021 and April 2022

This dataset provides aircraft flight path information and ground-based camera imagery to support the evaluation of models of contrail formation and persistence.

Camera imagery and corresponding flight path information were collected for 5 separate days where contrail formation was identified over London between November 2021 and April 2022, leading to 16 hours of observation. The camera observations were made every 5 seconds, looking to the East of Imperial College London (where the camera was based).

This dataset contains flight path telemetry data used to derive aircraft trajectories intersecting the camera's field of view.
