A visualization system effectively presents even extraordinarily complex systems in a readily understandable manner. The visualization system generates and displays a process-product matrix that includes the applications assigned to each matrix coordinate, arranged in a compact and easily readable format. The resulting visualization is useful in identifying the relationships and interdependencies of the processes, products and applications employed by an organization. Constructing an optimized visualization of a complex structure such as an application landscape is itself complex, and requires consideration of multiple factors. This is especially true given the exponential number of applications-processes-products permutations that must be considered in constructing the visualization. The display apparatus and method used to visualize the application landscape provides a way to input the applications' assignments and filter preferences, and generate the visualization.
