Flow data sets represent a large amount of data and are therefore not well suited for mobile networks with low data throughput rates and high latency. Using the mechanisms introduced in this paper, an efficient transfer of thinned out and compressed data can be achieved, while keeping the accuracy of the visualized information almost at the same quality level as for the original data.}, language = {en} }
