Abstract: Similar typhoon tracks reflect to some extent that influencing factors have the same or similar comprehensive impacts on typhoon movements. In this paper, considering the trajectory space-time distance and frequency characteristics, distance-frequency algorithm, a spatio-temporal trajectory similarity measurement algorithm based on IMHD-ST distance is proposed. The similarity between typhoon trajectories is evaluated on two aspects of spatio-temporal position and shape. Experimental results show that the calculation results remain accurate, meanwhile the resistances to noise, sampling rate change and offset have been improved, therefore can effectively match similar trajectory pairs and applied to typhoon tracks forecast and similar typhoon cases extraction.

Key words: typhoon, spatio-temporal trajectory, trajectory feature, similarity, case matching
