Reading the chart
  • The treemap visualization shows the breakdown of the financing budget payoffs level by level.
  • The size of each rectangle represents the outflow of cash and cash equivalents in € Euro (e.g., the public pension scheme rectangle, representing € 12,468.8 million, is approx. twice as large as the Family and youth rectangle, representing € 7,687.1 million.)
  • The area covered by the whole treemap is subdivided recursively according to the amount of money they represent, level by level. On the top level, the area is split between Work, Social Affairs, Health and Family; Economy, Infrastructure and Environment; Education, Research, Art and Culture; Law and Security; Cash and Interest.
  • Items within a sub-category are represented by rectangles that are closely packed together with increasingly larger gaps to the neighboring categories. For example, within the Work, Social Affairs, Health and Family , the area is further subdivided into public pension schemes, family and youth, health care, work, social affairs and consumer protection, and pensions of officials.
  • Items on the bottom level that belong to the same sub-category are visually represented by using the same color.
