## KEYWORDS

general, GUI, temporal, plot

## SYNOPSIS

g.gui.timeline
g.gui.timeline --help
g.gui.timeline [-3] [inputs=name[,name,...]] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

### Flags:

-3
  Show also 3D plot of spatio-temporal extents
--help
  Print usage summary
--verbose
  Verbose module output
--quiet
  Quiet module output
--ui

### Parameters:

inputs=name[,name,...]
  Name of the input space time datasets

## DESCRIPTION

The Timeline Tool is a wxGUI component which allows the user to compare the extents of temporal datasets (strds, stvds, str3ds) in a plot.

Supported features:

- temporal datasets with interval/point and absolute/relative time
- 2D plots - temporal extent
- 3D plots - spatio-temporal extent (matplotlib >= 1.0.0)
- pop-up annotations with basic metadata

## NOTES

g.gui.timeline requires the Python plotting library Matplotlib.
