摘要:People have observed and investigated dynamic behaviours of movement through the ages. In today’s world, movement data have been more collectively generated particularly due to the development and the deployment of location-aware technologies and geo-sensor networks, the emergence of ubiquitous computing environments, and the usefulness of these technologies in everyday life. This book addresses data mining challenges of extracting valid, understandable and useful knowledge from large-scale data about movement. Such knowledge can facilitate decision-making processes in various application fields including urban planning, transportation, animal ecology, logistics and location-based services.
