✓ Published1🌍 Public
This visualization displays world cities as circles on an interactive map, with circle size encoding population using a square-root scale. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered via `d3.geoPath`, with country borders, shorelines, and graticules from World Atlas TopoJSON data. City coordinates come from a Simplemaps CSV, filtered to populations above 50,000. React manages the component state, while D3 handles geographic projections, scaling, and SVG rendering.
