Network properties

The residual network calculated in the previous section can also be analyzed using the network measures discussed in Chapter 5, The Small Scale – Nodes and Centrality. The following code compares the average clustering of the original air transport network to that of the residual network:

nx.average_clustering(G_air)0.6577002515250526nx.average_clustering(G_residual)0.03604529774872912

The original network has a very high clustering coefficient, typical of geographic infrastructural networks. On the other hand, the residual network, which has been adjusted to compensate for the effects of distance, exhibits a small clustering coefficient.
