We study how to dynamize the Trapezoidal Search Tree - a well known randomized point location structure for planar subdivisions of kinetic line segments. Our approach naturally extends incremental leaf-level insertions to recursive methods and allows adaptation for the online setting. Moreover, the dynamization carries over to the Trapezoidal Search DAG, offering a linear sized data structure with logarithmic point location costs as a by-product. On a set S of non-crossing segments, each update performs expected 𝒪(log²|S|) operations. We demonstrate the practicality of our method with an open-source implementation, based on the Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, and experiments on the update performance.
