This visualization presents global nuclear explosion data as a scatterplot over a Mercator-projected world map using SVG. The map shows land masses in brown and country borders, while each nuclear event appears as a circle with a tooltip displaying its name and coordinates. Built with D3 v3 and React, it uses `d3.geoMercator` and `d3.geoPath` for rendering, loading map topology from world-atlas and CSV data from a GitHub gist. The visualization supports interactive zoom and rotation through additional geo-projection scripts, with color palettes and legends enhancing the display.

Open This is a design experiment for project project tomorrow. I used it as an proof of concept to grasp the usability for intermodal projections of global data.

The sweet spots of the code are from Jason Davis Dorling World and Mike Bostocks Shape Tweening. Open the block in a sperate window for all of its functionality.

Globe Zoom - Animate

This visualization combines a world map with a scatterplot of nuclear explosion locations, rendered using D3.js v3 with SVG. The map displays land masses, graticules, and country interiors, while points mark each nuclear event's latitude and longitude. The visualization uses a Mercator projection via `d3.geoMercator()` and `d3.geoPath`, with data loaded from TopoJSON for the map and CSV for nuclear explosion records. The React-based frontend manages data fetching through custom hooks, supporting interactive exploration of global nuclear testing patterns.

Globe Zoom - Animate

A world map in a Mercator projection displays nuclear explosion sites as small circles, with each point showing the location's name, latitude, and longitude in a tooltip. The visualization uses D3 v3 with geo projections, SVG paths for land and graticules, and React to render the map and data loading. The underlying data comes from a CSV of nuclear explosions and a world-atlas TopoJSON file.

This visualization displays global nuclear explosion locations as points on a Mercator-projected world map, with landmasses, graticules, and country borders rendered as SVG paths. The code uses `d3.geoMercator`, `d3.geoPath`, and `d3.geoGraticule` to project and draw geographic features, while circles mark each nuclear event with coordinates and names loaded from a CSV file. Built with React and D3 v3, it incorporates a zoom-and-pan interaction for exploring the interactive globe.

This example visualizes global nuclear explosion locations on a geo-scatterplot with interactive globe projections. The visualization uses an animated globe that users can rotate and zoom between map projections, with points representing nuclear data positioned via d3.geoMercator projection. Built with D3 v3 and React, the code employs d3.geo.orthographic for globe rendering, d3.geo.zoom for transitions, and reads nuclear explosion data from a CSV file. The visualization also features graticules, land polygons from TopoJSON world atlas data, and tooltips via d3.tip.

This visualization displays a globe with nuclear explosion locations plotted as points on a land-mass map. The D3.js geoMercator projection renders geographic features, while graticules and interiors show grid lines and country boundaries. Data from a CSV file of nuclear explosions is mapped through longitude and latitude coordinates, with tooltips revealing location names. The visualization uses d3.geoPath, d3.geoMercator, and d3.geoGraticule for map rendering, with topojson providing world atlas geometry. Interactive elements include hover effects on land masses and color-coded points, demonstrating animated transitions between different global datasets.

Globe Zoom - Animate

A world map rendered with SVG marks a projected globe, where graticules, landmasses, and country interiors are drawn via `d3.geoPath` and `d3.geoGraticule`. Nuclear test explosion sites, loaded from a CSV, are plotted as small circles whose positions are calculated using a Mercator projection (`d3.geoMercator`). The visualization demonstrates how multiple geographic datasets can be overlaid and interactively explored, with tooltips showing each site’s name and coordinates. The implementation uses React for state management and `d3` v3 APIs for map and projection handling.

This example visualizes nuclear explosion locations on a world map using a Mercator projection, with each explosion represented as a small circle and country boundaries drawn as lines. It uses React to manage component state and rendering, while D3 v3 APIs such as `d3.geoPath`, `d3.geoMercator`, and `d3.geoGraticule` generate the map geometry from TopoJSON world-atlas data. The nuclear explosion coordinates and names are loaded from a CSV file, and the visualization appears as static SVG elements without any animation.

This visualization presents global nuclear explosion sites as points on a zoomable, animatable globe, transitioning between map projections. The view alternates between an orthographic globe and a Mercator projection using clickable menu buttons. Built with D3 v3 and React, it leverages `d3.geo.orthographic`, `d3.geo.mercator`, and `d3.geo.path` for rendering, while TopoJSON supplies world landmasses and borders. Nuclear test data from a CSV file is plotted as selectable, tooltip-enabled circles.
