Resumen
With the rapid growth of trajectory big data, there is a need for more efficient methods to extract, analyze, and visualize these data. However, existing research on trajectory big data visualization mainly focuses on displaying trajectories for a specific period or showing spatial distribution characteristics of trajectory points in a single time slice using clustering, filtering, and other techniques. Therefore, this paper proposes a vector field visualization model for trajectory big data, aiming to effectively represent the inherent movement trends in the data and provide a more intuitive visualization of urban traffic congestion trends. The model utilizes the motion information of vehicles to create a travel vector grid and employs WebGL technology for vector field visualization rendering. The vector field effects are effectively displayed by generating many particles and simulating their movements. Furthermore, this research also designs and implements congestion trend point identification and hotspot congestion analysis, thus validating the practicality and effectiveness of trajectory big data vector field visualization. The results indicate that compared to traditional visualization methods, the vector field visualization method can demonstrate the direction and density changes in traffic flow and predict future traffic congestion. This work provides valuable data references and decision support for urban traffic management and planning.
