Abstract

One of the main strengths of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) is the analysis of spatial and attributive data. Spatiotemporal interpolation techniques allow the expansion of the collected data to the sites where no samples are available. In the context of GIS, the data, be it interpolated or collected, are visual in nature and hard to understand in raw forms. Visualization of complex evolving region trajectories is often times used as an aid to better understand the data and its underlying patterns. In this work, we created SOLEV, a solar event video generation framework that integrates multiple data sources of solar images. This is the first framework of this kind that not only visualizes spatial solar event boundaries, but also the tracked and interpolated spatiotemporal trajectories they form over time.
