This paper presents an original data mining approach for extracting pixel evolutions and sub-evolutions from Satellite Image Time Series. These patterns, called frequent grouped sequential patterns, represent the (sub-)evolutions of pixels over time, and have to satisfy two constraints: firstly to correspond to at least a given minimum surface and secondly to be shared by pixels that are sufficiently connected. These spatial constraints are actively used to face large data volumes and to select evolutions making sense for end-users. Successful experiments on an optical and a radar SITS are presented.
