Reply to comment by Zarasophos in [OC] Connections between the world's 200 largest airports by Zarasophos
If this has the 200 largest airports, where is ATL (Hartsfield-Jackson)? That's the world's largest and I don't see it here.

It's in the middle of the American cluster, above Toronto. The reason why it's not that prominent is that the visualisation is based on numbers of connecting flights, and ATL is apparently not ranked that highly there (see also https://simpleflying.com/most-well-connected-airports-in-the-world/)

Really struggling with this concept as well. Maybe there needs to be a volume map, too?
