Odysseus has built-in features in the spatial package with which spatio-temporal and especially moving objects data can be processed. Here we describe how to use these features and give a few example scenarios.

Accessing Example Data

San Francisco data.

Filling a Spatio-Temporal Index

Moving Object Index

Running a Range-Query on the Index

Example code

Future Work

The work on this topic is not finished. Here  list of things that we want to add in future releases.

• Providing a web-based map view to visualize the queries, e.g. with Spring Boot + Leaflet (or OpenLayers). Can be a bit inspired by the demonstration visualization by Tile38 (e.g. http://tile38.com/ or https://roam.sh/)
• Adding interpolation functionality to calculate in-between-measurements locations and near-future locations
