This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants, using semi-transparent circles to represent the total number of dead and missing individuals at each recorded location. The geographic context is provided by a natural Earth projection rendered with D3’s `geoNaturalEarth1` and `geoPath`, overlaid with graticules and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled with a square-root scale based on the data’s maximum value. The React app fetches data from a CSV and JSON from external sources, leveraging `scaleSqrt` and `useWorldAtlas` hooks to load and process both datasets.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants, with circle size encoding the total number of dead and missing per reported location. The map uses a natural Earth projection via `geoNaturalEarth1` and renders geographic features with `d3.geoPath`, including land masses, graticules, and interiors. The React app loads CSV data from a GitHub gist using D3’s `csv` parser, while world topology comes from the world-atlas package. The size scale uses `scaleSqrt` to map values to circle radii, and SVG circles are positioned using the projection’s coordinate output.

Missing Migrants on a map

This visualization displays the global distribution of missing migrants, with circle size representing the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses the Natural Earth projection via `geoNaturalEarth1` and `geoPath` from D3, with SVG circles rendered as proportional symbols scaled by `scaleSqrt`. Data is loaded from a CSV using D3’s `csv` utility, while the world atlas is fetched as TopoJSON and converted to GeoJSON features and mesh lines for land and interior boundaries. React manages the component state and rendering, with D3 handling the geographic projections and scales.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This map visualization displays the global distribution of missing migrants, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals per location. Using a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, it renders land masses, graticules, and country interiors as SVG paths. Circle radii are scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the data’s maximum value. The data is loaded asynchronously from a CSV using D3’s `csv` utility, while world map topology comes from a JSON file processed with TopoJSON’s `feature` and `mesh` functions. React hooks manage the loading state.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map displays the locations of missing migrants, with semi-transparent circles sized by the total number of dead and missing per incident. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, with graticules and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Circle radii are scaled using `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the maximum death toll, and React manages the SVG rendering. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Global 2019 CSV, loaded with `d3.csv`.

Missing migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants, with each semi-transparent circle scaled proportionally to the reported number of dead and missing individuals per incident. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, with landmasses, graticules, and country interiors drawn from TopoJSON data. Circle radii are determined by a `d3.scaleSqrt` function applied to the 'Total Dead and Missing' field from a subset of the Missing Migrants dataset. React manages the asynchronous loading of both the world atlas and CSV data, while SVG renders all visual elements.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global locations of missing migrants, with semitransparent circles sized proportionally to the total number of dead and missing at each coordinate. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered with d3.geoPath, combining world landmasses, graticules, and country borders from the world-atlas TopoJSON dataset. The CSV data is loaded and parsed with d3.csv, while d3.scaleSqrt maps the migrant counts to circle radii. The React component structure uses useState and useEffect hooks to fetch and display the data as SVG circles.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map displays the global distribution of missing migrants, with semi-transparent circles sized by the total number of dead and missing per location. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath` to render landmasses, graticules, and country borders from TopoJSON data. Circle radii are scaled with `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the dataset's "Total Dead and Missing" values. The React component structure relies on the `useWorldAtlas` and `useData` hooks to load and process the world atlas and CSV data.

Missing Migrants on a Map

A world map displays the locations of missing migrant incidents, with semi-transparent circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals. The visualization uses D3’s geographic projections (`geoNaturalEarth1`, `geoPath`, `geoGraticule`) combined with React and SVG rendering. Circle sizes are scaled with `scaleSqrt`, and the map includes land masses, interior borders, graticules, and a sphere background. Data comes from a CSV of Missing Migrants Global records, while world geography uses TopoJSON from the world-atlas package.
