Missing Migrants on a Map
This interactive visualization combines a world map with a histogram to display missing migrant data over time. A natural Earth projection shows the geographic distribution of incidents, with circle size encoding the total number of dead and missing per location. A date histogram below aggregates these figures by month, using d3.bin and d3.scaleTime for temporal grouping. The visualization is built with React and D3 v5, using d3.geoPath for map rendering and d3.scaleSqrt for proportional circle sizing based on data from the Missing Migrants Project.
