Fork of Final version - Globe
This interactive globe displays cities with populations over 100,000 as circles, using pan and zoom to explore geographic distribution. Hovering over a point reveals a tooltip table listing cricket match details from the linked dataset, including teams and winning outcomes. Built with D3.js, it uses `d3.geoOrthographic` projection and `d3.geoPath` for landmasses, with city coordinates plotted from GeoNames data. The visualization incorporates SVG rendering and custom tooltip positioning to handle viewport constraints.
