The Atlanta Journal-Constitution gathers real-time wait-time data from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to show what security lines look like right now and how the wait has been throughout the day.
Before it was halted last week, data from the airport’s website was intermittently available. The data updates every five minutes, but is subject to availability of data from the airport’s website.
The airport relies on sensors from the Swiss technology company Xovis to detect how long the lines currently are at the airport. Those times are posted on the airport’s website.
The AJC records those readings every five minutes and computes a rolling average to show a trend line for how long passengers might wait at the airport.
