This research analyses Iran's domestic air transport network (2018-2021) by developing annual Origin-Destination (OD) impedance matrices based on flight frequency. The methodology quantifies network connectivity, revealing a highly centralized structure dominated by core corridors like Tehran-Mashhad, which carried over 10,500 flights in 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic caused a severe disruption in 2020, with traffic on major routes falling by nearly half, followed by a partial recovery in 2021. Analysis shows core hubs rebounded faster than peripheral airports, widening accessibility gaps. Through origin-destination matrix processing, the system identifies high density air routes and analyses historical trends in airspace utilization. The impedance matrix, validated against data (R²=0.87), successfully maps the intense service on hub links and the high impedance of sparse peripheral routes. Then an interactive Web GIS platform was implemented for spatiotemporal analysis of air traffic density."}],"OA_type":"gold","title":"Real time interactive web GIS based modelling of high traffic air corridors in Iran using origin destination matrix analysis","status":"public","conference":{"start_date":"2025-12-15","location":"Tehran, Iran","end_date":"2025-12-17","name":"ISPRS: Conference on Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences,"},"department":[{"_id":"HeEd"}],"date_created":"2026-07-13T09:51:29Z","issue":"-4/W8-2025","article_processing_charge":"No","page":"493-500","month":"05","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","quality_controlled":"1","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"scopus_import":"1","acknowledgement":"We sincerely thank the Iranian Airports and Air Navigation\r\nCompany for sharing statistical data on flights from Iranian\r\nairports, separated by origin and destination, for this research.","keyword":["Air Traffic simulation","Dynamic Air Traffic Corridors","Origin Destination matrix","Interactive Web GIS","Iran Aviation Network","Spatiotemporal Modelling"],"year":"2026","type":"conference","date_updated":"2026-07-14T05:56:30Z","citation":{"apa":"Eghbali Mardekheh, M., Argany, M., Karimipour, F., &#38; Sedghitabar, S.
