A lot of trajectories generated by various moving objects
A lot of trajectory data
Trajectory mean
Unique in terms of its data structure and semantic meanings, which
imply rich knowledge about the mobility and behavior of moving objects.

4. Philosophy and Paradigm
Moving objects
Overall, spatial trajectories have offered us unprecedented information to understand moving objects and locations, calling for systematic research of new computing technologies for the processing, retrieving, and mining of trajectory data and exploring its broad applications.

Jiawei Han
University of Illinois
Under such a circumstance, 17 active professionals came up with 9 chapters dealing with the concepts and technologies for solving the problems that newcomers will be faced with when exploring this field, starting from the preprocessing and managing of spatial trajectories, then to mining uncertainty, privacy, and patterns of trajectories, and finally ending with some advanced applications based on spatial trajectories including activity recognition, driving, and location-based social networks.

Framework
These chapters are organized according to the paradigm of “trajectory preprocessing (prior databases) → trajectory indexing and retrieval (in databases) → advanced topics (above databases),” as illustrated in Figure 1.
