Abstract

As the smartphone market grows, tracking a person’s own positions become easier and popular. Especially for the bicycling, file based GPS data make it easier to manage and access personal trajectories. In this paper, we propose an effective color coding method for massive bicycle trajectories visualization. The motivation of the method is based on characteristics of the bicycle trajectories which have different spatial aspects compare to the automobiles. The proposed method modifies the color of the line segments based on the direction and flow, and provides visually enhanced trajectories. GPS data collected from Han riverside bicycle tracks were applied to the proposed visualization methods, and shown the potential possibilities for trajectory analysis.
