Intended audience: end-users analysts developers administrators

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.

Example

Configuration of Calendar Heatmap Chart

DATA Properties

Label	UI Widget	Default	Description
Time Field	Dropdown w/Expression option		The Time Field allows the user to select an MSO Property that holds temporal information, such as dates or timestamps. This field is used to map and plot data in the calendar heatmap layouts.
Value Field	Dropdown w/Expression option		The Value Field allows the user to select an aggregated value from an MSO Property (eg, Count) containing numerical or quantitative data. This value determines the intensity or color gradient of each cell in the calendar heatmap.
Group by Field	Dropdown w/Expression option		The Group By Field allows the user to select an MSO Property that defines categories for the data points. Grouping data enables the chart to display variations across categories within the most detailed calendar representation (typically an hourly view).
Color	Text Field w/Color Palette option		The Color allows the user to select which color by Theme to use for the values in the chart. A gradient is automatically created within the Color selected. See Curation - Field Properties - Data Styles \| Selection of Color.
