You can get yellow and green taxi trip records from NYC taxi dataset. The website collects data from 2009 until now. You can download the data from the following link: http://www.nyc.gov/html/tlc/html/about/trip_record_data.shtml
If you have R and the spacetime
package then you are only data(package="spacetime")
away from a list of space-time data sets bundled with the package:
Data sets in package ‘spacetime’:
DE_NUTS1 (air) Air quality data, rural background PM10 in
Germany, daily averages 1998-2009
fires Northern Los Angeles County Fires
rural (air) Air quality data, rural background PM10 in
Germany, daily averages 1998-2009
then for example:
> data(fires)
> str(fires)
'data.frame': 313 obs. of 3 variables:
$ Time: int 5863 5870 6017 6018 6034 6060 6176 6364 6366 6372 ...
$ X : num 63.9 64.3 64.1 64 64.4 ...
$ Y : num 19.4 20.1 19.7 19.8 20.3 ...
Another idea is to combine OpenStreetMap project map data, for example, using corresponding nice R package (http://www.r-bloggers.com/the-openstreetmap-package-opens-up), with census data (population census data, such as the US data: http://www.census.gov/data/data-tools.html, as well as census data in other categories: http://national.census.okfn.org) to analyze temporal patterns of geosocial trends. HTH.
First thing that came to mind would be one's personal workout data from running or biking apps.
Otherwise there is a dataset around NYC's taxi trip data. Quick Googling brought me this: http://www.andresmh.com/nyctaxitrips/. Variables include time and location for both pickups and dropoffs.
Another dataset comes from Chicago's bikesharing service. It can be found here: https://www.divvybikes.com/datachallenge.
You can get some documented, publicly available EEG data from the HeadIT database at UCSD. http://headit-beta.ucsd.edu/studies
The data itself appears to be in Biosemi Data Format (.bdf) files, described here: http://www.biosemi.com/faq/file_format.htm
Biosemi provides links to several open-source methods to access and import .bdf files on their website, including several functions for importing into Matlab, as well as into Python (BioSig) and C/C++ libraries: http://www.biosemi.com/download.htm
Just as a forewarning, EEG data can be a bit of a bear to work with, due to it's inherently low signal/noise ratio.
