Techniques of providing spatiotemporal visualizations are disclosed. In some example embodiments, a spatiotemporal visualization of at least a portion of data of a dataset is generated and displayed to a user in a graphical user interface of a device. An embodiment comprises receiving data comprising a plurality of measures and a plurality of dimensions; calculating a minimum and maximum magnitude of velocity for measures in the data; defining intervals in a range defined by the minimum and maximum velocity; selecting configuration settings for rendering a spatiotemporal visualization corresponding to the data and the intervals; generating the spatiotemporal visualization, the spatiotemporal visualization comprising a graphical representation of at least a portion of data comprising at least one of the measures and at least one of the dimensions over the defined intervals; and causing display of: the spatiotemporal visualization, and a plurality of selectable interaction controls corresponding to the spatiotemporal visualization.
