Spatiotemporal data are data that is collected across both pace and time. It can be collected through observational sensors or simulation models. This can be shown in GIS through live observations that are currently changing and updating. Things like social media, weather events can all be tracked with spatiotemporal data. loT is the network of physical objects that use different data and exchange and collect it. I liked that we were able to connect the different first responders into a web app so they could all coordinate, it really helped me grasp the concept of how GIS uses real time locations and incidents.
Application idea: Something you could use an application for with spatiotemporal data is changing addresses, people are moving in and out of homes in Delaware, we could be able to track how often people move in and out to create a pattern to potentially improve a neighborhood to increase retention in a neighborhood. Using loT we can collect and exchange the data to create a more connected system. We can view how close parks are, the proximity of a nearby city, public parking and proximity to grocery stores and other shops.
