Kuhn, M; Pfister, S; Vontobel, I; Willi, C; De Sabbata, S; Cöltekin, Arzu (2011). TIMELINE: A tool for the video analysis and visualization of geographic phenomena over time.

Abstract

The growing number of webcams and their rapidly improving quality provide the researchers in Cartography and in other fields of Geography with a valuable source of information, i.e. webcam recordings can be used to study many kinds of geographic phenomena. Nevertheless, the use of tools such as webcams raise a question about the appropriate time scale needed to identify and study different kinds of geographic phenomena. In this paper we present a web tool called TIMELINE that can be used to collect, archive and visualize various geographic phenomena at different time scales using recorded imagery.
