In a Time-Location schedule, each activity is represented using two dimensions: time and position in space.
An activity is defined at minimum by four pieces of information:
These four parameters make it possible to draw the simplest form of an activity: a line representing the progression of an operation between two points in time and space.
In Tilos360, this basic representation can be enriched in order to improve the readability of the schedule. Different geometric shapes can therefore be associated with activities.
These shapes define the representation types of activities.
Tilos360 provides several basic shapes to represent activities in the Time-Location schedule:
These different shapes allow the representation of activities to be adapted according to their nature and the needs of the schedule analysis.
Representation types are graphical templates used to display activities in the Time-Location schedule.
They help to:
Each activity can then use one of these representation types through its Task style.
Representation types are defined in the Tilos360 settings.
They are configured in the section:
From this interface, it is possible to:
These types are then used as the basis for defining activity styles and for displaying activities in the Time-Location schedule.
