Patent number: 11503097Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a method for rendering interactive visualizations of high volume streaming data. Streaming data that describes a plurality of events is loaded in memory. The streaming data includes geospatial data that specifies a source location and a destination location for each event. Visual metaphors representing the events are rendered using a visualization mathematical model that defines, for each visual metaphor, a spatial position and opacity for each point along the visual metaphor throughout a sliding time window.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2019Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: eBay Inc.Inventors: Jinrong Xie, Patrick Nelson, Binbin Shao, Zeqian Shen, Zoher Karu
