ABSTRACT
This demo presents Scout; a full-fledged interactive data visualization system with native support for spatio-temporal data. Scout utilizes computing power of GPUs to achieve real-time query performance. The key idea behind Scout is a GPU-aware multi-version spatio-temporal index. The indexing and query processing modules of Scout are designed to complement the GPU hardware characteristics. Front end of Scout provides a user interface to submit queries and view results. Scout supports a variety of spatio-temporal queriesrange, k-NN, and join. We use real data sets to demonstrate scalability and important features of Scout.
