How this figure is calculated

Air transport, freight (million ton-km) with 104 missing years estimated by linear interpolation between the nearest real observations. Only gaps of 4 years or fewer are filled, and never beyond the first or last actual measurement β€” these are filled holes, not forecasts.

Computed from

  • Air transport, freight Civil Aviation Statistics of the World, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)

Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
