This example uses a natural Earth projection to render a world map with circles sized by 2018 population estimates. The visualization displays countries in two colors, distinguishing those with population data from those without. It uses d3.geoNaturalEarth1, d3.geoPath, and d3.geoCentroid to project country boundaries and position circles at country centroids. A d3.scaleSqrt maps population values to circle radii, with a custom size legend and zoom interaction via d3.zoom. Population data comes from a CSV file merged with TopoJSON world atlas geometry.

Circles on a Map

This example displays a natural Earth projection world map with semi-transparent teal circles sized by each country’s 2018 population estimate, using d3.geoNaturalEarth1, d3.geoPath, and d3.geoCentroid to position circles at country centers. A d3.scaleSqrt maps population values to circle radii, and a custom size legend shows graduated tick marks. Countries missing data appear pink, and hovering highlights them turquoise. The visualization loads UN population CSV data and TopoJSON world geometry via d3.csv and d3.json, renders SVG paths and circles, and supports zooming through d3.zoom.

Circles on a Map

This example displays a natural Earth projection map with semi-transparent teal circles sized by each country’s 2018 population, drawn from UN population estimates and world atlas TopoJSON data. A square-root size scale encodes population values, with a corresponding size legend and an ordinal color legend for missing data. The visualization uses d3.geoPath and d3.geoNaturalEarth1 for map geometry, d3.geoCentroid to position circles, and d3.zoom for panning and zooming. Hovering a country reveals a tooltip with its region and formatted population.

Circles on a map

This visualization displays a world map with circles sized by population estimates for 2018, using a square-root scale to encode magnitude. Countries without data appear in red, while those with values are green. The code uses `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` for projection, `d3.geoPath` to render country boundaries, and `d3.geoCentroid` to position circles. A size legend and a color legend are generated with custom D3 functions, while zoom interaction is implemented via `d3.zoom`. Population data comes from a CSV of UN estimates, merged with TopoJSON world atlas geometry.

Circles on a map

This visualization displays a natural Earth projection map with circles overlaid on each country, sized proportionally to its 2018 population and colored by data availability. The map uses d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath for geographic rendering, while d3.scaleSqrt and d3.geoCentroid position the circles. Population data is loaded from a UN CSV file, merged with TopoJSON world geometry via topojson.feature, and filtered for valid values. Zooming is enabled through d3.zoom, and a size legend with formatted tick labels explains the circle scale. Countries missing data appear in red, and hover tooltips display the region and exact population.

Circles on Map

This example displays a world map with circles positioned at the centroids of countries, sized to reflect their 2018 population estimates. The map uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and renders geographic boundaries with `d3.geoPath`, while circle radii are scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt`. Populated countries appear with teal circles, and gray or pink fills indicate data availability. The visualization loads population data from a CSV and country geometries from TopoJSON, and supports zooming through `d3.zoom`. Hovering reveals a tooltip with the region name and population count.

Circles on a map

This example displays a natural Earth projection world map with semi-transparent teal circles overlaid on each country, sized according to estimated 2018 population data from the UN. The map uses `d3.geoPath` and `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` to render country outlines from TopoJSON, while `d3.scaleSqrt` maps population values to circle radii. A legend with `d3.scaleSqrt` ticks and a color legend for missing data accompany the visualization, which supports zooming via `d3.zoom`.

Circles on a Map

This visualization displays global population by country using scaled circles on a natural Earth projection map, with circle area proportional to each country's 2018 population. Users can pan and zoom via d3.zoom and hover over countries to see exact population figures through SVG title tooltips. The example uses d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath for map rendering, d3.scaleSqrt for circle sizing, and topojson for world geometry. Population data is loaded from a CSV file, and countries lacking data appear in red rather than gray.

Circles on a Map

This visualization uses a natural Earth projection to display global population data for 2018, with each country represented by a circle whose area is proportional to its population. The map supports pan and zoom interactions, and hovering over a country reveals its population through a tooltip. Built with D3.js, it uses `d3.geoPath` for map rendering, `d3.scaleSqrt` for the size scaling, and custom legends to explain both the color scheme and circle sizes. Population data comes from a CSV file joined to a TopoJSON world atlas.
