This visualization combines a bubble map and histogram to explore the Missing Migrants Dataset. The map uses a natural Earth projection with D3’s `geoPath` and `geoNaturalEarth1` to plot incident locations as scaled circles, while the histogram aggregates reported deaths by month using `d3.bin` and `scaleTime`. Built with React and D3 v5, the SVG rendering overlays graticules, country borders, and shorelines from TopoJSON world-atlas data, with circles sized by a square-root scale. The histogram’s axes and bars are generated with `scaleLinear`, `scaleTime`, and `timeMonths`, presenting temporal patterns alongside geographic distribution.
