Abstract

The focus of the presented work is visualization of routes of objects that change their spatial location in time. The challenge is to facilitate investigation of important characteristics of the movement: positions of the objects at any selected moment, directions, speeds and their changes with the time, overall trajectories and those for any specified interval etc. We propose a dynamic map display controlled through a set of interactive devices called time controls to be used as a support to visual exploration of spatial movement.
