| Sumario: | This work presents the development of a modular tool in the form of an interactive dashboard for the analysis and comparison of long-haul transport routes using both conventional aviation and hypersonic transport, specifically the SpaceLiner concept developed by the German Aerospace Center (DLR). The main objective is to assess the viability of this emerging mode of transport through the calculation of key indicators such as travel time, cost, and carbon dioxide emissions. The tool implements a hierarchical segment-based structure that reflects the typical configuration of long-distance flights and integrates public datasets, vehicle performance parameters, and optimization algorithms. Additionally, use cases are provided focusing on routes originating from London and Los Angeles, aiming to identify scenarios where the use of hypersonic transport could be justified. The validity of the results is evaluated through comparison with real flights data, and the source code is included to facilitate future development and improvement. |
