A Spatiotemporal database is a system that manages both space and time information (Biological Databases, wireless communication networks, processing of objects with uncertainty, ...)

A Spatiotemporal database embodies spatial, temporal, and spatiotemporal database concepts, and captures spatial and temporal aspects of data and deals with geometry changing over time (Source: http://lbdwww.epfl.ch/e/teaching/SlidesST/Spatio-Temporal%20Zhang.pdf)


Topics of research are the Analysis & Retrieval of spatial and spatiotemporal data.
