Abstract

Space- and time-referenced data published on the Web by general
people can be viewed in a dual way: as independent spatiotemporal
events and as trajectories of people in the geographical
space. These two views suppose different approaches to the
analysis, which can yield different kinds of valuable knowledge
about places and about people. We define possible types of
analysis tasks related to the two views of the data and present
several analysis methods appropriate for these tasks. The methods
are suited to large amounts of the data.
