TLDR
On-going research in the representation of the positions of moving-point objects is reported on, where object positions are sampled using the Global Positioning System, and interpolation is applied to determine positions in-between the samples.
Abstract
Spatiotemporal applications, such as fleet management and air traffic control, involving continuously moving objects are increasingly at the focus of research efforts. The representation of the continuously changing positions of the objects is fundamentally important in these applications. This paper reports on on-going research in the representation of the positions of moving-point objects. More specifically, object positions are sampled using the Global Positioning System, and interpolation is applied to determine positions in-between the samples. Special attention is given in the representation to the quantification of the position uncertainty introduced by the sampling technique and the interpolation. In addition, the paper considers the use for query processing of the proposed representation in conjunction with indexing. It is demonstrated how queries involving uncertainty may be answered using the standard filter-and-refine approach known from spatial query processing.

Map-matching for low-sampling-rate GPS trajectories

TL;DR: The results show that the ST-matching algorithm significantly outperform incremental algorithm in terms of matching accuracy for low-sampling trajectories and when compared with AFD-based global algorithm, ST-Matching also improves accuracy as well as running time.

On map-matching vehicle tracking data

TL;DR: This work presents three algorithms that consider especially the trajectory nature of the data rather than simply the current position as in the typical map-matching case, and proposes an incremental algorithm that matches consecutive portions of the trajectory to the road network.

Never Walk Alone: Uncertainty for Anonymity in Moving Objects Databases

TL;DR: It is proved that the problem of achieving (k,delta) -anonymity by space translation with minimum distortion is NP-hard, and a greedy algorithm based on clustering and enhanced with ad hoc pre-processing and outlier removal techniques is proposed.
