Temporal renderers provide time-based rendering of features in a feature layer. It can be useful to visualize historic or real-time data such as earthquake or hurricane occurrences. You can use a temporal renderer to define how observations (regular, historic, latest) and tracks are rendered. You can also show aging of features with respect to the map's time extent.
