This example shows the locations of three reported monolith appearances in Utah, Romania, and California as stationary steel-blue circles on an interactive orthographic globe. The visualization uses d3.geoOrthographic for projection and d3.geoPath to render country boundaries from TopoJSON data, swapping between 110m and 50m resolution during drag and zoom interactions. Circles are positioned via the projection of city coordinates from a CSV file, with d3.drag and d3.zoom enabling rotation and scaling, while d3-tip provides hover labels. The globe rotates as users drag, and zoom adjusts scale via d3.event.transform.k. Hovering over a circle displays the location name through the d3-tip tooltip.

Fork of Monoliths on a Globe

This globe visualization plots the locations of three recently discovered monoliths in Utah, Romania, and California as steel-blue circles on an orthographic projection of Earth. The map uses `d3.geoOrthographic` with `d3.geoPath` to render country boundaries from TopoJSON world-atlas data, swapping between 110m and 50m resolution during and after drag interactions. Circles are positioned via the projection and display a tooltip with the monolith’s name using `d3-tip`. Users can drag to rotate the globe and zoom via `d3.zoom`, which scales the projection.

Fork of Monoliths on a Globe

A fork of the "Monoliths on a Globe" prototype plots three monolith locations—Utah, Romania, and California—as steelblue circles on an orthographic globe. The visualization uses d3.geoOrthographic with d3.geoPath and topojson to render world boundaries at 50m and 110m resolutions, switching to the lower detail during drag and zoom interactions. Circles are positioned via a projection, with d3-tip tooltips showing names on hover. Population values are read from a CSV but are not used in the visible rendering, as circles have a fixed radius.

Monoliths on a Globe

This visualization displays three monolith locations—Utah, Romania, and California—as red circles on an interactive orthographic globe, with circle size and tooltip (via d3-tip) representing population. Users drag to rotate the globe using d3.drag and zoom with d3.zoom, which adjust the d3.geoOrthographic projection. The code renders country boundaries with d3.geoPath from TopoJSON world-atlas data, switching between 110m and 50m resolutions during interaction for performance. Data comes from a local CSV file.

Fork of Monoliths on a Globe

This example plots the locations of reported monolith sightings on a 3D orthographic globe, with each steel-blue circle marking a site. The globe is draggable to rotate and zoomable via the mouse wheel. The visualization uses `d3.geoOrthographic` for projection, `d3.geoPath` with shared world-atlas TopoJSON data for rendering country boundaries, and `d3.drag` and `d3.zoom` for interaction. It also includes `d3.tip` tooltips that display the monolith name on hover.

Fork of Monoliths on a Globe

This visualization displays population sizes of three monoliths—Utah, Romenia, and California—as proportional red circles on an interactive orthographic globe. Users can drag to rotate the globe and zoom to adjust scale, with tooltips showing exact population values. The code uses `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.geoPath`, and TopoJSON world-atlas boundaries for rendering, switching between 110m and 50m resolution during rotation for performance. Circle radii come from a square-root scale of population data loaded from a CSV via `d3.csv`. Interactive features rely on `d3.drag` and `d3.zoom`, with `d3.tip` providing hover labels.

Fork of Monoliths on a Globe

A fork of "Monoliths on a Globe" plots red, semi-transparent circles scaled by population for Utah, Romania, and California on a spinning orthographic globe. The D3 v4 and topojson code renders world country boundaries at varying resolutions, using SVG paths and projected point coordinates, while a black tooltip displays name and population on hover. Dragging rotates the globe via `d3.drag()`, toggling between lower- and higher-resolution boundary data.

Monoliths on a Globe

This example displays the locations of three recent monolith discoveries on an interactive orthographic globe, with city-sized markers projected onto a world map. Built with D3 v4, it loads GeoJSON country boundaries from the World Atlas TopoJSON files and monolith coordinates from a CSV. Users can drag to rotate the globe, which swaps between 110m and 50m resolution landmasses during movement, and zoom via the wheel. Tooltips use d3-tip to show each monolith’s name on hover.

This example shows the locations of reported monoliths on a rotating globe, plotting red circles at each site with hover tooltips displaying the location name. Using an orthographic projection with d3.geoPath, the visualization renders country boundaries from the world-atlas TopoJSON datasets, switching between 110m and 50m resolutions during drag interactions. The code leverages d3.drag for rotation, d3.scaleSqrt and d3.schemeSet3 for sizing and colors, and d3-tip for interactive popups. Data comes from the included monoliths.csv file.
