Display Temporal Data

Purpose This sample application reads temporal data from a shapefile that contains such data and displays it on a map. The application sets up a tracking environment, the temporal mode, the temporal perspective and the base time and then reads in temporal data from the shapefile. The data are then displayed in the map bean, at intervals of 1 second, using Java Swing's standard timer mechanism (InvokeHelper.java), in association with com.esri.arcgis.trackinganalyst.TemporalOperator class.

How to use
