World Map Landings
✓ Published0🌍 Public
This world map visualization plots meteorite landing sites using a Natural Earth projection, with each landing marked by a small circle. The map renders country boundaries and a graticule using `d3.geoPath` and `geoNaturalEarth1`, with the `topojson-client` library converting the world atlas data into GeoJSON features. Meteorite locations come from the `@reddishmatthew/meteorite-landings` package, while city coordinates are sourced from a Simplemaps database. The visualization projects each landing's latitude and longitude onto the map to show their global distribution.
