Sensor networks generate substantial amounts of frequently updated, highly dynamic data that are transmitted as packets in a data stream. The high frequency and continuous unbound nature of data streams leads to challenges when deriving knowledge from the underlying observations. This paper presents (1) a state of the art review into visual analytics of geospatial, spatio-temporal streaming data, and (2) proposes a framework based on the identified gaps from the review. The framework consists of (1) the data model that characterizes the sensor observation data, (2) the user model, which addresses the user queries and manages domain knowledge, (3) the design model, which handles the patterns that can be uncovered from the data and corresponding visualizations, and (4) the visualization model, which handles the rendering of the data. The conclusion from the visualization model is that streaming sensor observations require tools that can handle multivariate, multiscale, and time series displays. The design model reveals that the most useful patterns are those that show relationships, anomalies, and aggregations of the data. The user model highlights the need for handling missing data, dealing with high frequency changes, as well as the ability to review retrospective changes.

Inference of clonal dynamics and tumour evolution has fundamental importance in understanding the major clinical endpoints in cancer: development of treatment resistance, relapse and metastasis. DNA sequencing technology has made measuring clonal dynamics through mutation analysis accessible at scale, facilitating computational inference of informative patterns of interest. However, currently no tools allow for biomedical experts to meaningfully interact with the often complex and voluminous dataset to inject domain knowledge into the inference process. We developed an interactive, web-based visual analytics software suite called E-scape which supports dynamically linked, multi-faceted views of cancer evolution data. Developed using R and javascript d3.js libraries, the suite includes three tools: TimeScape and MapScape for visualizing population dynamics over time and space, respectively, and CellScape for visualizing evolution at single cell resolution. The tool suite integrates phylogenetic, clonal prevalence, mutation and imaging data to generate intuitive, dynamically linked views of data which update in real time as a function of user actions. The system supports visualization of both point mutation and copy number alterations, rendering how mutations distribute in clones in both bulk and single cell experiment data in multiple representations including phylogenies, heatmaps, growth trajectories, spatial distributions and mutation tables. E-scape is open source and is freely available to the community at large.

Streaming data cognition has become a dominant problem in interactive visual analytics for event detection, meteorology, cosmology, security, and smart city applications. In order to interact with streaming data patterns in an elastic cloud environment, we present a new elastic framework for big data visual analytics in the cloud, the Cloudet. The Cloudet is a self-adaptive cloud-based platform that treats both data and compute nodes as elastic objects. The main objective is to readily achieve the scalability and elasticity of cloud computing platforms in order to process large streaming data and adapt to potential interactions between data stream features. Our main contributions include a robust cloud-based framework called the Cloudet. This is a cloud profile manager that attempts to optimize resource parameters in order to achieve expressivity, scalability, reliability, and the proper aggregation of the compute nodes and data streams into several density maps for the purpose of dynamic visualization.

Fully automated or semi-automated scanning electron microscopes (SEM) are now commonly used in semiconductor production and other forms of manufacturing. The industry requires that an automated instrument must be routinely capable of 5 nm resolution (or better) at 1.0 kV accelerating voltage for the measurement of nominal 0.25-0.35 micrometer semiconductor critical dimensions. Testing and proving that the instrument is performing at this level on a day-by-day basis is an industry need and concern which has been the object of a study at NIST and the fundamentals and results are discussed in this paper.In scanning electron microscopy, two of the most important instrument parameters are the size and shape of the primary electron beam and any image taken in a scanning electron microscope is the result of the sample and electron probe interaction. The low frequency changes in the video signal, collected from the sample, contains information about the larger features and the high frequency changes carry information of finer details. The sharper the image, the larger the number of high frequency components making up that image. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis of an SEM image can be employed to provide qualitiative and ultimately quantitative information regarding the SEM image quality.

The article is a brief summary of current research results of the authors in the field of spatial modeling of air pollution based on spatio-temporal data streams from geosensor networks. The urban environment is characterized by the presence of a large number of different sources of emissions and rapidly proceeding processes of contamination spread. So for the development of an adequate spatial model is required to make measurements with a large spatial and temporal resolution. It is shown that geosensor network provide researchers with the opportunity to obtain data with the necessary spatio-temporal detail. The article describes a prototype of a geosensor network to build a detailed spatial model of air pollution in a large city. To create a geosensor in the prototype of the system, calibrated gas sensors for a nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide concentrations measurement were interfaced to the module, which consist of processing unit and communication unit. At present, the authors of the article conduct field tests of the prototype developed.

Earth Observation data possess tremendous potential in understanding the dynamics of our planet. We propose the Semantics-driven Remote Sensing Scene Understanding (Sem-RSSU) framework for rendering comprehensive grounded spatio-contextual scene descriptions for enhanced situational awareness. To minimize the semantic gap for remote-sensing-scene understanding, the framework puts forward the transformation of scenes by using semantic-web technologies to Remote Sensing Scene Knowledge Graphs (RSS-KGs). The knowledge-graph representation of scenes has been formalized through the development of a Remote Sensing Scene Ontology (RSSO)—a core ontology for an inclusive remote-sensing-scene data product. The RSS-KGs are enriched both spatially and contextually, using a deductive reasoner, by mining for implicit spatio-contextual relationships between land-cover classes in the scenes. The Sem-RSSU, at its core, constitutes novel Ontology-driven Spatio-Contextual Triple Aggregation and realization algorithms to transform KGs to render grounded natural language scene descriptions. Considering the significance of scene understanding for informed decision-making from remote sensing scenes during a flood, we selected it as a test scenario, to demonstrate the utility of this framework. In that regard, a contextual domain knowledge encompassing Flood Scene Ontology (FSO) has been developed. Extensive experimental evaluations show promising results, further validating the efficacy of this framework.

Long-term beach observation data for several decades are essential to validate beach morphodynamic models that are used to predict coastal responses to sea-level rise and wave climate changes. At the Hasaki coast, Japan, the beach profile has been measured for 34 years at a daily to weekly time interval. This beach morphological dataset is one of the longest and most high-frequency measurements of the beach morphological change worldwide. The profile data, with more than 6800 records, reflect short- to long-term beach morphological change, showing coastal dune development, foreshore morphological change and longshore bar movement. We investigated the temporal beach variability from the decadal and monthly variations in elevation. Extremely high waves and tidal anomalies from an extratropical cyclone caused a significant change in the long-term bar behavior and foreshore slope. The berm and bar variability were also affected by seasonal wave and water level variations. The variabilities identified here from the long-term observations contribute to our understanding of various coastal phenomena.

The bending fatigue strength of 17CrNi6-6 steel subjected to vacuum carburizing with high pressure gas hardening has been measured using a novel high-frequency technique. The test records the changes in resonance and consists of observing resonance frequency changes in a vibrating system with a single degree of freedom as a result of the forming of a fatigue crack. Moreover, a mechanism of fatigue nucleation and propagation in steel hardened by vacuum carburizing is presented.
