The Resource Usage Calendar shows a calendar much like the Bookings Calendar, except that everything is displayed in the past. That's because resource usage that hasn't happened yet cannot be recorded. The calendar shows usage for any resource and gives the ability to filter that usage as required. If the user has suitable permission, then they can also create and modify resource usage from the calendar. This may be necessary if something prevented usage being recorded as a resource was being used.
