Curation - Calendar Heatmap Chart

Intended audience: end-users analysts developers administrators

AO Platform: 4.4

Overview

This topic provides an overview of a Calendar Heatmap Chart. A Calendar Heatmap Chart is a data visualization technique that helps users display data over time, especially when trying to highlight patterns, trends, or anomalies in a calendar-like structure. It is often used to represent the intensity of events, values, or frequencies across days, weeks, or months, tailored to the needs of the curation process. The Calendar Heatmap Chart allows drill-down between the different periods.
