# Dataset Card for LiveATC Recordings (Partial 2024-08-26)

### Dataset Summary

This dataset contains a partial collection of 21,172 air traffic control audio recordings from LiveATC.net for the date August 26, 2024. The recordings are organized by ICAO airport code and stored in .tar.zst archives. Due to rate limiting on LiveATC.net, this dataset represents an incomplete sample rather than a full day's recordings as originally planned. It is provided as-is for research purposes.

### Languages

The dataset is multilingual, with English being the primary language. Other languages may be present depending on the airport location:

- English (en): The majority of the content
- Other: Some content in other languages may be present

## Dataset Structure

The dataset consists of audio recordings: MP3 files stored in .tar.zst archives, named by ICAO airport code.

### Data Fields

This dataset includes the following fields:

- `audio`: The MP3 audio recording file
- `icao`: ICAO code of the airport (derived from audio filename)
- `facility`: Type of ATC facility (e.g., "CTAF", "TWR", derived from audio filename)
