# Benchmark Analysis

The benchmark analysis, similar to the service availability analysis, allows for the evaluation of the proportion of ideal flight conditions and helps assess whether a flight location is suitable. The strength of the benchmark analysis lies in comparing locations regarding their suitability:

<summary>Benefits</summary>

* Highest level of detail available
* What is the expected up/down time of my service per year/month/time of day in comparison to other locations
* What are the parameters causing the downtime per year/month/time of day in comparison to other locations

</details>

## Detailed

The detailed analysis is used to evaluate operational conditions and their triggers for day, night, and day & night simultaneously.
