I've been experimenting with this and have some examples:

and

Unfortunately there seem to be severe limitations on what is currently possible in this space: no easy way to add a time slider as far as I can tell. Heads-up @tim-salabim just in case but I plan to write a post showing how to get the basics going and doing a bit of a 'call for developer' time to solve what should be a fairly straightforward problem. On a related note, it's pretty amazing to see what is possible in animated web mapping these days:

Wow that's pretty impressive that second example (though very domain specific). As a general solution for trajectories, I trust you have seen @timelyportfolio's leaftime?

Thanks Tim, I must have seen it a while back but then forgot. I think that has a good chance of being the best solution atm, will definitely include in the blog post. May ask you guys for feedback on the reproducible code before publishing it if that's OK. Thanks!
