This scatterplot displays the relationship between happiness score and logged GDP per capita for countries in the 2020 World Happiness Report, with point color encoding regional indicator and size representing healthy life expectancy. Tooltips reveal country name, happiness score, and GDP per capita on hover. The visualization is built using the vega-lite-api library, which wraps Vega-Lite’s declarative syntax, while D3’s `csv` function loads the external dataset. The chart automatically fits the window dimensions and uses a custom configuration to adjust axis and label styling.

AI-generated description

A visualization constructed using the vega-lite-api.

The Happiness Score is plotted against Logged GDP

The data shown here comes from the [World Happiness Report 2020] (https://www.kaggle.com/mathurinache/world-happiness-report?select=2020.csv), via Gist: World Happiness Report 2020.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example visualizes the World Happiness Report 2020 data, plotting each country’s happiness score against its logged GDP per capita, with points colored by regional indicator and tooltips showing country details. Built with the Vega-Lite API, it uses `vl.markPoint()` and `vl.encode()` to define the scatter plot, while `d3.csv` loads the remote dataset. The visualization is rendered as an SVG via Vega and Vega-Lite, with a custom configuration for axis and label styling, and it fills the browser window using an autosize fit setting.

World Happiness Report

This visualization displays the relationship between a country’s happiness score and its GDP per capita, with each circle colored by whether the country is classed as the “happiest country.” Built with the vega-lite-api and D3 v5, it loads CSV data from a GitHub gist and renders a scatterplot using `vl.markCircle`. The chart applies custom axis and label styling from a shared config, uses a tooltip to show country names, and fits the view to the window dimensions.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example displays the population of countries in 2015 as horizontal bars, ranked from largest to smallest, with the countries on the x-axis and their population on the y-axis. Built with the Vega-Lite API, it dynamically loads data via `d3.csv` from a remote gist and renders the chart using Vega-Lite’s SVG renderer. The code customizes the axis and tooltip appearance through a configuration object, and it uses `vega-tooltip` for interactive hover details. The visualization adapts its width and height to the window size with an autosize fit.

World Happiness and Health Expenditures Correlation

This visualization uses a line mark to plot the correlation between a country’s happiness score and its health expenditure per person, with points aggregated by average and the y-axis not starting at zero. It loads CSV data via `d3.csv` from a GitHub gist, then renders the chart using Vega-Lite API functions like `vl.markLine` and `vl.encode`, with a custom config for font sizes and axis styling. The code also includes a commented-out least-squares regression layer and tooltip setup via vega-tooltip, though the active view only displays the basic trend line.

A6_ScatterPlot

This scatter plot visualizes the relationship between happiness scores and GDP per capita across multiple continents, with each circle colored according to its continent category. It shows how countries with higher GDP per capita tend to report higher happiness scores, while also revealing regional clusters and outliers. The visualization is built with D3 v7 and rendered as SVG, using a linear scale for both axes and an ordinal color scale for continental groupings. A d3-legend legend provides a color key for the continent categories, and the data is loaded from an external CSV file containing happiness and GDP metrics.

Viz Project

This visualization explores global trends in the World Happiness Report by mapping each country’s life satisfaction against GDP per capita, with additional dimensions for social support, life expectancy, freedom, generosity, and corruption. Using D3 v4 with SVG and animation, the chart animates through years to reveal changes in the happiness landscape. Each country is represented as a circle, with its position encoding the relationship between GDP and the life ladder score, while size and color can encode additional variables. The visualization updates smoothly as the year changes, allowing users to compare how countries shift in relative happiness and economic standing over time.

Vega-Lite API Template

A scatter plot visualizes modern mathematicians, statisticians, computer scientists, engineers, inventors, biologists, and physicists born after 1950 across seven countries, mapping historical prominence index (hpi) and lifespan (l) on the axes. Each point’s color and fill encode occupation, shape indicates birth country, and size reflects non-English page views. The example uses the Vega-Lite API to construct the specification programmatically, with D3’s `csv` loading data from the Pantheon.world dataset, and renders through Vega with tooltip support.

Vega-Lite API Countries

This visualization displays population by country as a horizontal bar chart, with countries sorted by population. Built with Vega-Lite’s API and rendered via D3, it loads data from a CSV of 2015 population figures. The chart uses a dark theme, custom axis styling, and tooltips showing exact values. The code registers Vega-Lite with a tooltip handler and fits the chart to the window size using an autosize configuration. The design improves readability with larger fonts and muted colors, while the interactive tooltip provides detailed population numbers on hover.
