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

This visualization maps missing migrant incidents worldwide using a natural Earth projection. Circles sized by the square root of the total dead and missing count are overlaid on geographic landmasses and graticules, with opacity highlighting incident density. It uses React for component structure, d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath for projection and rendering, d3.scaleSqrt for radius encoding, and topojson to convert world atlas data. The dataset comes from the Missing Migrants CSV, with coordinates parsed and reversed for plotting.

Missing Migrants on a map

This visualization displays the global distribution of missing migrants, with circle size representing the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses the Natural Earth projection via `geoNaturalEarth1` and `geoPath` from D3, with SVG circles rendered as proportional symbols scaled by `scaleSqrt`. Data is loaded from a CSV using D3’s `csv` utility, while the world atlas is fetched as TopoJSON and converted to GeoJSON features and mesh lines for land and interior boundaries. React manages the component state and rendering, with D3 handling the geographic projections and scales.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization shows the global distribution of missing migrants, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals at each recorded location. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered as SVG paths via d3.geoPath, with graticules and country borders from TopoJSON world-atlas data. Migrant locations are loaded from a CSV file, projected through d3.geoNaturalEarth1, and plotted as semi-transparent circles scaled by d3.scaleSqrt. React manages the component state and rendering, while d3's max function determines the domain for the size scale.

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, with each semi-transparent circle scaled proportionally to the reported number of dead and missing individuals per incident. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, with landmasses, graticules, and country interiors drawn from TopoJSON data. Circle radii are determined by a `d3.scaleSqrt` function applied to the 'Total Dead and Missing' field from a subset of the Missing Migrants dataset. React manages the asynchronous loading of both the world atlas and CSV data, while SVG renders all visual elements.

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 map visualization displays the global distribution of missing migrants, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals per location. Using a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, it renders land masses, graticules, and country interiors as SVG paths. Circle radii are scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the data’s maximum value. The data is loaded asynchronously from a CSV using D3’s `csv` utility, while world map topology comes from a JSON file processed with TopoJSON’s `feature` and `mesh` functions. React hooks manage the loading state.

It uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath` to render landmasses, graticules, and country boundaries from TopoJSON data. Migrant incident coordinates are projected and drawn as semi-transparent circles scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt`. The data comes from a CSV of the Missing Migrants Project, processed through React hooks and rendered as SVG.
