This interactive visualization maps recorded incidents of missing migrants worldwide, with each circle representing an event and its radius scaled by the total number of dead or missing individuals. Using a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, the map renders country boundaries, graticules, and points from CSV data loaded with `d3.csv`. Circle sizes are determined by a square-root scale (`scaleSqrt`) applied to the death toll, and the React-based component structure uses `useWorldAtlas` to fetch TopoJSON land and interior boundaries.

AI-generated description

A world map showing cities with population greater than 50,000. City data from Simplemaps: World Cities Database.

Country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON, polished for visual style, including graticules.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This map visualizes missing migrant incidents worldwide, with each circle positioned at the incident’s coordinates and sized by the total number of dead and missing. It uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, rendering landmasses, graticules, and interiors from the World Atlas TopoJSON. Circles scale with `scaleSqrt` based on the CSV data, while React manages state and rendering.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization displays a world map of missing migrant incidents, with circle markers sized according to the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses a natural Earth projection with graticules and country borders rendered as SVG paths, while circles are overlaid with square-root scaling for radius. Built with React and D3 v5, the example loads world atlas topology via the `topojson` library and pulls data from a CSV file. The `geoNaturalEarth1` projection and `geoPath` handle geographic mapping, while circles are positioned using the projection coordinates.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants, using semi-transparent circles to represent the total number of dead and missing individuals at each recorded location. The geographic context is provided by a natural Earth projection rendered with D3’s `geoNaturalEarth1` and `geoPath`, overlaid with graticules and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled with a square-root scale based on the data’s maximum value. The React app fetches data from a CSV and JSON from external sources, leveraging `scaleSqrt` and `useWorldAtlas` hooks to load and process both datasets.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants from 2014 to 2021, using a natural Earth projection rendered with `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`. Each circle represents a recorded incident, with its radius scaled proportionally to the total number of dead or missing via a square-root scale. The map overlays land polygons and country borders from the world-atlas TopoJSON dataset onto graticule lines. React manages the component hierarchy, while D3 loads the CSV data and handles geographic projections, all rendered as SVG elements with semi-transparent teal circles.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map displays the locations of missing migrant incidents, with semi-transparent circles sized by the total number of dead and missing per event. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and renders landmasses, graticules, and country borders using `d3.geoPath`. Circle radii are scaled with a square-root scale `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the dataset from the Missing Migrants Project, loaded as CSV. The React app fetches world atlas TopoJSON and the CSV data through custom hooks.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map displays the locations of missing migrants, with each incident represented by a semi-transparent circle whose area encodes the total number of dead and missing. The visualization uses a Natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, rendering landmasses, graticules, and country borders from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the data’s maximum value from the Missing Migrants Project CSV. The example is built in React, using `useEffect` to load TopoJSON and CSV data through `d3.json` and `d3.csv`, with SVG output.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map visualizes missing migrant incidents, with each semi-transparent circle representing a single event and sized proportionally to the total number of dead and missing. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath` to render landmasses, graticules, and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled using `d3.scaleSqrt`, and the data comes from the Missing Migrants Dataset CSV, processed with React hooks and rendered as SVG.
