A criteria based function for reconstructing low-sampling trajectories as a tool for analytics

Abstract: Mobile applications equipped with Global Positioning Systems have generated a huge quantity of location data with sampling uncertainty that must be handled and analyzed. Those location data can be ordered in time to represent trajectories of moving objects. The data warehouse approach based on spatio-temporal data can help on this task. For this reason, we address the problem of personalized reconstruction of low-sampling trajectories based on criteria over a graph for including criteria of movement as a dimension in a trajectory data warehouse solution to carry out analytical tasks over moving objects and the environment where they moveMaestrí

A developed GPS trajectories data management system for predicting tourists' POI

One of the areas that have challenges in the use of internet of things (IoT) is the field of tourism and travel. The issue here is how to employ this technology to serve the tourism and managing the produced data. This work is focus on the use of tourists' trajectories that are collected from global positioning system (GPS) mobile sensors as a source of information. The aim of work is to predict preferred tourism places for tourists by tracking tourists' behavior to extract the tourism places that have been visited by such tourists. Density based clustering algorithm is mainly used to extract stay points and point of interest (POI). By projecting GPS location (for user and places) on the Google map, the type and name of places favored by the tourists are determined. K nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm with haversine distance has been adopted to find the nearest places for tourists. The evaluation of the obtained results shows superior and satisfactory performance that can reach the objective behind this work
