I dear CartoDB's Torque. It is a really powerful mapping tool for plotting geographical information over time. Unfortunately it gets a lot of unfair criticism because of all those stupid Twitter maps that everyone insists on using it for.
It is hence ever a please to come upward across a Torque powered map which is genuinely both visually compelling as well as informative at the same time. Lifewatch Inbo has used Torque to practise a forrard trajectory model to visualize aeroplane migration.
In a serial of animated CartoDB Torque powered maps Lifewatch Inbo has visualized the flying migration of birds over the course of report of i night. Using CartoDB to Visualize How Far Birds Migrate inwards a Single Night uses information from the ROBIN aeroplane radar detection organisation to imitate the trajectory of private birds from Kingdom of Belgium as well as the Netherlands on the nighttime of Apr 7-8, 2013.
In each of the maps y'all tin stance an animated simulation of the birds' migration based on the birds' airspeed as well as the current of air weather condition on the 2 nights inwards question.
