FactorsDescriptionsType of dataLabel coding

MAPMissed approach/go-aroundDiscrete1: if MAP is executed, 0: if approach occurs

Vehicle-specificType of the flightDiscrete1: if the inbound flight is an international flight, 0: if the inbound flight is Hong Kong-based carrier
Type of inbound aircraftDiscrete1: if the inbound aircraft is a wind-body aircraft, 0: if the inbound aircraft is a narrow-body aircraft

Runway-specificAssigned arrival runway for inbound flightDiscrete1: if arrival runway is 07R, 2: if the arrival runway is 25C, 3: if arrival runway is 25L, 0: if arrival runway is 07C

Environment-specificLLWS magnitudeContinuousā€”
LLWS H-locationDiscrete1: if horizontal encounter location of low-level wind shear is 1 nautical mile from runway threshold, 2: if horizontal encounter location of low-level wind shear is 2 nautical miles from runway threshold, 3: if horizontal encounter location of low-level wind shear is 3 nautical miles from runway threshold, 0: if low-level wind shear occurs at the runway threshold
LLWS V-locationContinuousā€”
Cause of LLWSDiscrete1: if there is sea breeze-induced wind shear, 0: if there is gust front-induced wind shear
PrecipitationDiscrete1: if there is precipitation, 0: otherwise

Temporal-specificTime of dayDiscrete1: if the MAP occurs during day time (08:00 to 18:59), 0: if the MAP occurs during night time (19:00 to 07:59)
SeasonsDiscrete1: if MAP event occurs in the spring season, 2: if MAP event occurs in the summer season, 3: if MAP event occurs in the autumn season, 0: if MAP event occurs in the winter season
