Do you also provide an API?

ch-aviation can provide the data feeds to you directly via file transfer protocol (FTP), safe file transfer protocol (SFTP) or a shared Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 bucket.

Which delivery formats you support?

The data is provided as Comma-separated values (.csv) flat files. Optionally we can provide them as Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) or XML (.xml)

How often does data get updated?

The ch-aviation database is updated in batches to ensure all data flows through ch-aviation’s semi-automated quality assurance process built to maximise data integrity. As a result, the data set remains relatively static in the ch-aviation production database, for most data sets for a week or month at a time. Therefore, the most efficient integration option is the transfer of flat files provided for integration into your own applications in various formats.
