This visualization maps the Missing Migrants Dataset, showing each migrant event as a circle on a world map. Circle size encodes the total number of dead and missing per event using a square-root scale. The map is rendered with SVG using D3’s `geoNaturalEarth1` projection and `geoPath`, with graticules and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. The React-based interface loads data via `useData` and `useWorldAtlas` hooks, styling circles with low opacity to reveal overlapping incidents.

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.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization displays a world map of the Missing Migrants Dataset, where each circle represents a reported event and its size encodes the total number of dead and missing individuals. The map uses a natural Earth projection through d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath to render landmasses, country borders, and graticules. Data points from a CSV are plotted as semi-transparent circles, with radii scaled using d3.scaleSqrt. The React application loads TopoJSON from World Atlas and SVG is used for all rendering.

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 individuals. The visualization uses D3’s geographic projections (`geoNaturalEarth1`, `geoPath`, `geoGraticule`) combined with React and SVG rendering. Circle sizes are scaled with `scaleSqrt`, and the map includes land masses, interior borders, graticules, and a sphere background. Data comes from a CSV of Missing Migrants Global records, while world geography uses TopoJSON from the world-atlas package.

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

A world map displays the locations of missing migrants, with semi-transparent circles sized by the total number of dead and missing per incident. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, with graticules and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled using `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the maximum death toll, and React manages the SVG rendering. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Global 2019 CSV, loaded with `d3.csv`.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This example visualizes the Missing Migrants Dataset, plotting each event as a circle on a world map. The circle radius encodes the total number of dead and missing individuals using a square root scale. The map renders with D3’s `geoNaturalEarth1` projection and `geoPath` to draw land, graticules, and country interiors, while `topojson` processes the world-atlas data. React manages the SVG output, and the data is loaded via D3’s `csv` function.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization displays a world map with circles representing missing migrants, where circle size corresponds to the total number of dead and missing individuals. Using React to render SVG marks, the code employs the D3 library's `geoNaturalEarth1` projection, `geoPath`, and `geoGraticule` to draw the sphere, graticules, landmasses, and interiors. Data is loaded from a CSV file containing migrant incident coordinates. Circle radii are determined via a square-root scale mapping the “Total Dead and Missing” values.

Missing Migrants of a map

This visualization maps missing migrant incidents worldwide, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing per event. The geographic context comes from a world atlas with land, interiors, and graticules rendered using D3’s geoNaturalEarth1 projection and geoPath. A square root scale maps the data’s magnitude to circle radius, and the dataset is loaded via d3.csv from a GitHub gist. The visualization uses React to manage state and render the SVG marks.
