  1. Building a Visual Summary of Multiple Trajectories Natalia Andrienko & Gennady Andrienko http://geoanalytics.net

  2. Introduction

  3. Problem statement • Given: data about movement of multiple objects {<o, t, x, y>}.o  { o1, o2, …, oN }; t0 ≤ t ≤ tmaxTrajectory: {<o, tk, x, y>} where o = const, tk > tk-1 for k>1 • Example: movement of vehicles and/or pedestrians in a city • Problem: represent groups of spatially similar trajectories in a summarised form. • E.g. trajectories with close starts and/or close ends and/or similar routes • Such groups may be found e.g. by means of clustering • Purposes: • Promote abstraction, understanding of common spatial features • Reduce display clutter and overlapping of symbols

  4. Example: trajectories of cars in Milan Trajectories on Wednesday morning (6591 trajectories, shown with 20% opacity) Result of density-based clustering by route similarity (noise excluded)

  5. Some of the 45 clusters How can we see several (all) clusters at once? How can we compare the clusters?

  6. An overview of the clusters (“small multiples”)

  7. A summarised representation (graphical spatial model) of a cluster

  8. How is it done? Divide the territory using a suitable mesh* Transform each trajectory into a sequence of moves between areas (cells of the mesh) Count the moves between pairs of areas Represent by arrows with varying thickness * Voronoi polygons built around characteristic points

  9. Sensitivity to generalisation parameters Radius 1000m: Radius 2000m: Radius 3000m:

  10. Groups of trajectories with close ends (or close starts) 47 clusters (noise excluded)

  11. Summarised representation, variant 1

  12. Summarised representation, variant 2

  13. Two summarisations

  14. Further work • Numeric estimation of displacement • Minimization of displacement • User evaluation • Application to trajectories stored in a database • Extending the method to spatio-temporal summarisation
