Abstract
Since many centuries, calendars are used to organize appointments, events and tasks. In this thesis interaction and visualization techniques for calendar data are presented, which do not only support the organization and analysis, but also facilitate and improve them. The basis of the solution is a 3D heightfield visualization, which displays the workloads of time slots over periods of time in a compact manner. Thereon, interaction and visualization techniques are used to investigate the data set for regularities and irregularities. The comparison of data sets while planning events is just as important as the integration of fuzzy tasks into one’s schedule and their manipulation. The visualization and exploration process is completed by statistical representations showing trends and patterns. The use of these techniques and the combination of them are presented with the help of real examples.
