Migrant Deaths Linked Views with Fast Brushing
This interactive visualization combines a natural Earth projection world map with a time-series histogram to explore migrant deaths in 2019. The map displays bubbles sized by the total dead and missing, while the histogram aggregates the same data by month. A brush on the histogram filters the map in real-time, highlighting events within the selected date range. Built with React and D3 v5, the code uses `geoNaturalEarth1`, `geoPath`, `geoGraticule`, `scaleSqrt`, and `brushX` for the brushing interaction. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Project, and the map utilizes the World Atlas TopoJSON for country boundaries.
