AEIC

Aviation Emissions Inventory Code (AEIC) is used to estimate aviation emissions using an aircraft performance model and a set of missions. It produces inventories that can be sliced by aircraft type, time period, or operating scenario to support analysis and reporting. Core modules cover mission definitions, trajectories, performance models, emissions estimation, gridding, and weather.

Installation

AEIC is not currently available on PyPI, but you can install releases from GitHub. The latest available version is v3.0.0. If you are using pip, do

pip install git+https://github.com/MIT-LAE/[email protected]

If you are using uv, do

uv add git+https://github.com/MIT-LAE/[email protected]

Local Development

If you intend to develop AEIC itself, see the developer setup guide for the recommended uv-based workflow, test runner configuration, and pre-commit hooks.

Units and Non-Dimensionals

AEIC works in SI units. The only exception is the pressure altitude, which has both SI and imperial flight level representations. All non-dimensional quantities are treated internally as SI.
