A Management Method of Multi-Granularity Dimensions for Spatiotemporal Data.

To understand the complex phenomena in social space and monitor the dynamic changes in people's tracks, we need more cross-scale data. However, when we retrieve data, we often ignore the impact of multi-scale, resulting in incomplete results. To solve this problem, we proposed a management method of multi-granularity dimensions for spatiotemporal data. This method systematically described dimension granularity and the fuzzy caused by dimension granularity, and used multi-scale integer coding technology to organize and manage multi-granularity dimensions, and realized the integrity of the data query results according to the correlation between the different scale codes. We simulated the time and band data for the experiment. The experimental results showed that: (1) this method effectively solves the problem of incomplete query results of the intersection query method. (2) Compared with traditional string encoding, the query efficiency of multiscale integer encoding is twice as high. (3) The proportion of different dimension granularity has an impact on the query effect of multi-scale integer coding. When the proportion of fine-grained data is high, the advantage of multi-scale integer coding is greater.
