When to use this template
A calendar heatmap effectively reveals daily, weekly, and monthly patterns, trends, and anomalies in a single quantitative measure over extended periods. Analysts reach for it to quickly identify recurring cycles, pinpoint unusually high or low activity days, and observe shifts in behavior across different months or years. It excels at showing periodicity and highlighting specific dates or periods that deviate from the norm.
- Time series data with daily or weekly granularity.
- A single quantitative measure (e.g., count, rate, score).
- Datasets spanning multiple months or years.
- Data where daily or weekly periodicity is expected.
- Identifying specific dates with extreme values.
