This visualization displays a hierarchical subset of the DBPedia ontology, a taxonomy of classes categorizing Wikipedia articles, as a circle packing diagram. Circles are nested to show class relationships, with color based on depth and gradients creating a 3D sphere effect. Users can pan, zoom, and click any circle to open a SPARQL query listing related Wikipedia articles. The code uses d3.js functions like `stratify`, `pack`, and `zoom` to compute the layout and interactions, with data loaded from a provided CSV file.
