Fork of Submarine Cables Globe
✓ Published0🌍 Public
A fork of the Submarine Cables Globe displays a draggable, zoomable orthographic projection of Earth, with submarine cable paths overlaid on country outlines. Users rotate the globe by dragging and zoom with the mouse wheel, adjusting the projection’s rotation and scale. It fetches world atlas data as TopoJSON and cable data as GeoJSON, rendering them via `d3.geoPath` and `geoOrthographic`. The code uses D3’s `drag`, `zoom`, and `geoGraticule` APIs, with data sourced from TeleGeography’s older GitHub repository.
