Abstract
The rapid growth of movement data sources such as GPS traces, traffic networks and social media have provided analysts with the opportunity to explore collective patterns of geographical movements in a nearly real-time fashion. A fast and interactive visualization framework can help analysts to understand these massive and dynamically changing datasets. However, previous studies on movement visualization either ignore the unique properties of geographical movement or are unable to handle today's massive data. In this paper, we develop MovePattern, a novel framework to 1) efficiently construct a concise multi-level view of movements using a scalable and spatially-aware MapReduce-based approach and 2) present a fast and highly interactive webbased environment which engages vector-based visualization to include on-the-fly customization and the ability to enhance analytical functions by…
