Sounds awesome! Let's talk about data. Do you know what kind of data you'll
be getting from these planes and ships? How many individual tracks are you
talking about?

We have two types of encoders currently for spatial data. The
GeospatialCoordinateEncoder [1] is fed lat/lon coords and velocity, but it
doesn't deal with altitude. It is a subclass of the CoordinateEncoder [2],
which can be fed any array of coordinates and a radius. For more details on
these encoders, see Chetan's video [3].

If altitude data is important, I suggest you try using the
CoordinateEncoder, and manually calculate a radius for the encoder using
velocity.
