The rapid increase in data generation—known as big data—has led to the exploration of large data sets for data discovery, business insights, and expanded knowledge about specific domains. Low-cost, distributed data storage and processing platforms, have made advances, lowering the barriers to big data analytics. This article explores: (1) How big data analytics is transforming aviation safety through the Aviation Safety Information Analysis and Sharing program; (2) How data is measured to detect events or conditions that may pose a risk to safe operations; (3) How data is analyzed using statistical analysis and time series methods and how results are communicated; and (4) What's next in big data analytics.
