Preface
Still,amajorityofGIsystemspersisttobestatic.Wearefocusedonapreciseand
accuratedescriptionof2D or3Dreality,butmany applications disregard temporal
development and continuous changes in system, data, models, and relationships.
Even for capturing reality in time series, inefficient forms of storage, retrieval,
processing, analysing, modelling, and visualisation are still frequently applied.

as well as in time. While we are observers of usually mild improvement of spatial
resolution of our data, we face substantial improvement of its temporal resolution.
More frequent remotely sensed imagery, statistical data, or environmental
measurements change ourview oftheworld.Datatime seriesaretransformedinto
almost (from the human perspective) continuous data streams, which require
changing of the concept of spatial data recording, storage, and manipulation.
However, dynamics is not bound only by sometimes elusive human mobility
data. The long tradition of environmental monitoring, statistical surveys, or
business records has produced series of scenes, each valid only for some shorter
or longer time interval. The analysis and modelling of the dynamics have to
overcome a stepwise approach. The temporal dimension is required to become an
integral part of the system; otherwise, it is unable to fully understand the
dynamics of human–environment interactions, to generate sophisticated
predictions and to take appropriate measures.
Althoughtimegeographywasestablished50yearsago,thetransformationfrom
visual language into a full spatio-temporal information system is still limited.
