Abstract

Compared with static spatial data, spatiotemporal data can better represent dynamic real-world phenomena. Many models and temporal GIS applications have been proposed to process, manage and analyze spatiotemporal data. However, most of these works mainly focus on static representation and storage in database and lack enough support for dynamic visualization. Furthermore, most spatiotemporal data models are usually specially designed for specific problems, making it difficult for interdisciplinary data integration. In this paper, we propose a model-driven approach for dynamically visualizing spatiotemporal data in animation, with a property-pluggable model and a modular web-based GIS. Demonstration on 2 real-world datasets shows that our method can integrate multi-source heterogeneous data, while keeping simple, pluggable structure for future customization and extension.
