Check this out - The graphical data speaks for itself really (especially the movies). Researchers demonstrate the complexity of Air traffic movements by plotting nearly 20000 aircraft as they fly across the US continent.
The Flight Patterns visualizations are the result of experiments leading to the project Celestial Mechanics by Scott Hessels and Gabriel Dunne. FAA data was parsed and plotted using the Processing programming environment. The frames were composited with Adobe After Effects and/or Maya.
