During the last decade, the domain of mobility data mining has emerged providing many effective methods for the discovery of intuitive patterns representing collective behavior of trajectories of moving objects. Although a few real-world trajectory datasets have been made available recently, these are not sufficient for experimentally evaluating the various proposals, therefore, researchers look to synthetic trajectory generators. This case is problematic because, on the one hand, real datasets are usually small, which compromises scalability experiments, and, on the other hand, synthetic dataset generators have not been designed to produce mobility pattern driven trajectories. Motivated by this observation, we present Hermoupolis, an effective generator of synthetic trajectories of moving objects that has the main objective that the resulting datasets support various types of mobility patterns (clusters, flocks, convoys, etc.), as such producing datasets with available ground truth information. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
