Abstract

A computer-implemented method for implementing a map calendar application and corresponding map calendar GUI that provide time mold functionality is described herein. The method includes executing the map calendar application to provide the map calendar GUI surfaced on a display. The map calendar GUI includes an interactive visualization of a map calendar, which includes a continuous, manipulable sequence of calendar content data corresponding to calendar content items that are organized based on units of time within a coordinate plane. The method also includes categorizing the calendar content items based on time categories corresponding to the calendar content items and identifying time patterns corresponding to the categorized calendar content items. The method further includes generating a time mold of the map calendar based on the identified time patterns and visually overlaying the time mold onto corresponding calendar content items within the interactive visualization.
