Abstract: -Clustering algorithm for the moving or trajectory data provides new and helpful information. It has wide application on various location aware services. In this study the Self Organizing Map is used to form the cluster on trajectory data. The self-organizing map (SOM) is an important tool in exploratory phase of data mining. It projects input space on prototypes of a low-dimensional regular grid that can be effectively utilized to visualize and explore properties of the data. When the number of SOM units is large, to facilitate quantitative analysis of the map and the data, similar units need to be grouped, i.e., clustered.
