World Population Area Chart
This area chart displays world population from 1960 to 2015, using a smooth curve to show growth over time. The visualization uses D3 v7’s `area`, `curveBasis`, `scaleTime`, and `scaleLinear` to generate the chart’s filled path and axes, with tick labels formatted to abbreviate large numbers. The SVG is rendered at 960 by 500 pixels, and the data comes from a CSV file loaded via `d3.csv`. Grid lines and axis labels provide context, while the chart’s title and maroon fill emphasize the population trend.
