MIREO, since 2001 a provider a software technology ranging from GPS tracking to Fleet Management Solutions and up to Geo-Information-Systems and Big Data Analysis, has solved the problem to track millions of vehicles on just a few commodity servers and to obtain answers in seconds to utmost complex queries . To this point there has been no technology on the market capable to scale to such volume while maintaining acceptable, sub-second response times to queries. The core of the solution has been the creation of an unprecedented database architecture with its own novel indexing method and query language. MIREO uses its technology in an implementation deployed for a Chinese fleet management customer, with which currently 2 mio. trucks are being surveilled.
The efficient storage of data of the "interval data type" has been discussed in literature for decades and had not yet been solved, since this type of data lacks an inherent order relation and therefore it is unclear how this data can be appropriately indexed. The “interval data type” is encountered e.g. in all uses cases where sensor values are collected from many moving objects with geo-reference over time periods: fleet management, applications based on annotated data for autonomous driving, usage based insurance, etc. The data volume can easily - depending on the extent of the sensory data to be acquired, the brevity of the time intervals, the length of the observed time period, the number of objects/data sources to be collected from, etc. - reach many PetaBytes or ExaBytes.
All database technologies available as of today, have been tested by MIREO; they do not scale sufficiently and have too long response times, especially when running complex queries. This is why MIREO has developed its own database technology from the ground up, with a new, efficient indexing method and sharding algorithm. Only the component for the distributed file system was taken over by a third party. Using this technology MIREO has implemented various use cases in a performant manner; it has proven to be suitable to process petabytes of geo-temporal data in the real time, whereby technically there is no obstacle foreseeable for scaling into ExaByte range.
MIREO, as a company routed in GPS, Navigation and GIS markets, has so far applied this technology to relevant use cases in this areas and complements it with its access to HD maps, its proprietary AI-based routing engine and its superior map matching technology.
However, the Spatial Temporal Cluster has applications far beyond. The ability to store, manipulate and efficiently analyze big data using multidimensional polygonal queries provides for quantum leap improvements in countless applications. Especially when a certain behavior on the output side of a system needs to traced to variations on input parameters by finding correlations and sorting out their significance for an observed desired or undesired behavior, the ability to execute multidimensional polygonal queries with fast turnaround plays out strongly. Due to its efficiency it could even be automated in self-learning AI-based architectures. It is utterly impossible to envision the full scope of applications that are poised for a drastic performance improvement:
