I have the following vehicle data

vehicle_id, position_x, position_y, time

The data represents the position of a vehicle at time 't' . The data is also available as a linear reference. I was wondering what's a simple way to visualize the vehicle movement as an animation? I would prefer a solution that I can integrate with python

EDIT The animation I plan on doing should be similar to the 2d one found in this video

I'd imagine its best done on a map; consider integrating (Google) maps with a custom path representing the vehicle.

I wasn't, so I used Google... and there were tons of discussion and examples.

What kind of animation did you have in mind? You can try PyGame for desktop app. They have a nice tutorial about this.
