Abstract
A treemap generation engine enables a user of a treemap generation application to design a treemap display page by providing inputs that define the format of the treemap display page, as well as inputs that define the data to be represented by the treemap display page. Based on the inputs, the treemap generation application generates treemap display data that can be processed by a browser application to draw a treemap display page on a computer.
