Fork of Migrant Deaths Linked Views with Fast Brushing
This interactive visualization combines a world map and time-series histogram to explore migrant deaths and disappearances. The map displays circles sized by total dead and missing using a square-root scale, while the histogram shows monthly totals. Brushing the histogram filters the map’s circles in real time via React state and d3.brushX. The map uses d3.geoNaturalEarth1, d3.geoPath, and graticules from the World Atlas TopoJSON, with data from the Missing Migrants Project. React’s useMemo optimizes rendering of both static geographic features and dynamic data updates.
