In more general cases, data might not live in a classical Euclidean space, and it can be difficult (or impossible) to find a direct representation for it in $$\mathbb {R}^{d}$$. Therefore, distance mapping from a non-Euclidean space to a canonical Euclidean space is essentially needed. We present in this paper a possible distance-mapping algorithm, such that the behavior of the pairwise distances in the mapped Euclidean space is preserved, compared to those in the original non-Euclidean space. Experimental results of the mapping algorithm are discussed on a specific type of datasets made of timestamped GPS coordinates. The comparison of the original and mapped distances, as well as the standard errors of the mapped distributions, are discussed. %G English %Z TC 5 %Z TC 8 %Z TC 12 %Z WG 8.4 %Z WG 8.9 %Z WG 12.9 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01677143/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01677143/file/456304_1_En_1_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01677143 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01677143 %~ SHS %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC5 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-TC12 %~ IFIP-TC8 %~ IFIP-WG8-4 %~ IFIP-WG8-9 %~ IFIP-LNCS-10410 %~ IFIP-CD-MAKE %~ IFIP-WG12-9
