A Taxonomy of Spatial-Temporal Data Visualization
Ying Zhu, Pragna Reddy Kancharla, Chaitanya Sai Kumar Talluru · 2021
Spatial-temporal data visualization is an important sub-field of data visualization. Many spatial-temporal data visualization techniques have been developed and published. Although there are several surveys on this subject, some are based on a task-centric or data-centric framework. Some surveys focus on the temporal data visualization for a particular type of spatial data visualization, such as a map or space-time cube. In this paper, we present a new taxonomy and interactive survey of spatial-temporal data visualization. Based on our taxonomy, a wide variety of spatial-temporal data visualization techniques can be described by a small set of visualization elements. This is the first step towards creating a grammar for spatial-temporal visualization.
