Lecture 1. IntroductionThree Components of Spatiotemporal Data
1. Spatial (where)
2. Temporal (when)
3. Data (what)
Spatiotemporal data is NOT new. Lienzo de Quauhquechollan: documents the space and
time history of the Spanish conquest from 1527 to 1530.
Why is spatiotemporal data?
Many historical processes are dynamic, showing changes of spatial patterns through time:
- Growth and decline of populations
- Epidemics
- Migrations
- Housing process etc.
Temporal Data
- Sequence of observations recorded at time intervals (typically regular time intervals)
- The standard terms used when describing time series data:
o T: the current time
o F(Xt): an observation at the current time
o T - n: a prior or lag time (e.g., T-1 for the previous time)
o T + n: future or forecast time (e.g., T+1 for the next time)
What is lag in the spatial domain? Distance in many direction
Why analyze a temporal data?
- Preparatory step before you develop a forecast of the series
- Commercial significance (make money purposes: demand and sales, number of
visitors)
Spatial data
- Non-spatial information
o Same as data in traditional data processing
o Numerical, categorical, ordinal, Boolean, etc.
o E.g., city name, city population
- Spatial information
o Spatial attribute: geographically referenced
▪ Neighborhood and extent
▪ Location e.g., longitude, latitude, elevation
o Spatial data representations
▪ Raster: gridded space
▪ Vector: point, line, polygon,
▪ Graph: node, edge, path
,Space and time
In some real-world problems, not enough to consider:
- Just snapshots of a spatial process at a given time,
- Or time series at a spatial location
The behavior from one time/spatial point to the next is important
Interactions across space and time
Interaction and impacts
Interaction and impact across processes and spatio-temporal scales.
,Goals of spatiotemporal data analysis
- Clustering (find outliers over the space and time)
- Predictive learning (predicts stock price)
- Change detection (weather)
- Frequent pattern mining
- Anomaly detection
- Relationship mining
Application domains
- Climate change
- Astronomy
- Finance
- Neuroscience
- Biology
- Epidemiology/health care
- And many more
Two generic properties of spatiotemporal data
- Autocorrelation
o Observations made at nearby locations and time stamps are not independent
o But correlated with each other
o Coherence of spatial observations - surface temperature values are
consistent at nearly locations
o Smoothness in temporal observations – changes in traffic activity occurs
smoothly over time
= NOT (statistically) independent.
- Heterogeneity
o ST datasets can show heterogeneity – non stationarity/variance – in both
space and time
o E.g., satellite measurements of vegetation at a location on earth show a
cyclical pattern in time due to the presence of seasonal cycles, e.g., winter vs
summer
o E.g., different spatial regions of the brain perform different functions and
hence show varying physiological responses to a stimuli.
Spatiotemporal Data Types
Data types:
1. Objects → vector format (for example points, A, B, C at different times)
2. Attributes → field (raster)
Four Common Types of Spatiotemporal Data
1. Event data: bunch of data points
a. Comprise of discrete events occurring at point locations and times
b. Incidences of crime events in the city
2. Trajectory data:
, a. Trajectory of moving bodies being measured
3. Reference points
a. Continuous ST field is being measured at moving ST reference cities-
measurements of surface temperature collected using weather balloons
4. Raster data
a. Observations of a ST field being collected a fixed (in location and shape) cells
in a ST grid (e.g., MRI scans of brain activity)
Converting between data types
Vector to raster: aggregate the counts of Point reference data to raster data:
events at every cell of an ST grid interpolate or aggregate the counts
Raster data to vector data: event Raster data to point reference data: take
extraction very vertex of the grid as a ST
Spatial Maps and ST raster
Spatial Maps (ability to create a 3D map of the environment)
• ST raster data can be viewed as a collection of spatial maps observed at every time
stamp.
• Common approach for extracting features among spatial maps is using image
segmentation techniques.
ST Raster
• Precipitation data: three-dimensional (3D) array where the first two dimensions
capture 2D space and the third-dimension captures time
• fMRI data: four-dimensional (4D) array where the first three dimensions capture 3D
space and the fourth-dimension captures time
Temporal Lag
• The period of time between two closely related events
• E.g., time lag between infection and system onset of coronavirus
• Time lag between the peak of coronavirus in China and rest of the world
