This visualization plots the locations of missing migrants on a natural Earth projection, with circle size encoding the total number of dead and missing per incident using d3.scaleSqrt. The map is rendered as SVG through a React component, using d3.geoNaturalEarth1, d3.geoPath, and d3.geoGraticule to draw land, interiors, and graticules. Data comes from the Data Canvas Sense Your City Dataset, with circles colored teal and partially transparent to reveal overlapping incidents.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps missing migrant incidents worldwide using a natural Earth projection. Circles sized by the square root of the total dead and missing count are overlaid on geographic landmasses and graticules, with opacity highlighting incident density. It uses React for component structure, d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath for projection and rendering, d3.scaleSqrt for radius encoding, and topojson to convert world atlas data. The dataset comes from the Missing Migrants CSV, with coordinates parsed and reversed for plotting.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization displays a world map with circles representing missing migrants, where circle size corresponds to the total number of dead and missing individuals. Using React to render SVG marks, the code employs the D3 library's `geoNaturalEarth1` projection, `geoPath`, and `geoGraticule` to draw the sphere, graticules, landmasses, and interiors. Data is loaded from a CSV file containing migrant incident coordinates. Circle radii are determined via a square-root scale mapping the “Total Dead and Missing” values.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This map visualizes the locations of missing migrant incidents across the globe, using circle size to represent the total number of dead and missing. Built with React and d3, it renders an SVG using d3.geoPath to draw land and graticule from a world atlas, with circles positioned via d3.geoNaturalEarth1 projection. Data comes from a CSV of the Missing Migrants Project, with circle radii scaled using d3.scaleSqrt.

Missing migrants on a Map

This map visualization shows the global distribution of missing migrants, with the size of each circle representing the total number of dead and missing individuals at a given location. The visualization uses a natural Earth projection and overlays semi-transparent circles on a world map, alongside graticules and country borders for geographic context. Built with React and D3 v5, the code employs `d3.geoNaturalEarth1`, `d3.geoPath`, and `d3.geoGraticule` to render the map, while a square root scale (`d3.scaleSqrt`) maps the migrant counts to circle radii. Data comes from a CSV file of the Missing Migrants Project, with geographic coordinates parsed and projected onto the SVG canvas.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization shows the global distribution of missing migrants, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals at each recorded location. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered as SVG paths via d3.geoPath, with graticules and country borders from TopoJSON world-atlas data. Migrant locations are loaded from a CSV file, projected through d3.geoNaturalEarth1, and plotted as semi-transparent circles scaled by d3.scaleSqrt. React manages the component state and rendering, while d3's max function determines the domain for the size scale.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization shows the locations of missing migrants on a world map, using a natural Earth projection to render landmasses and graticules. Each migrant incident is drawn as a semi-transparent circle, with its radius scaled proportionally to the total number of dead and missing via a square-root scale. The map is built with d3.geoPath for geographic features and d3.geoGraticule for the coordinate grid, while data is loaded from a CSV file using d3.csv. The entire SVG is assembled in React, with world atlas topology processed through the topojson library’s feature and mesh functions.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps missing migrant incidents worldwide, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses a natural Earth projection with graticules, country boundaries, and a light color scheme. The React app loads CSV data and world-atlas TopoJSON, then renders SVG marks via `d3.geoPath` and a square-root scale for circle radii. The underlying data is drawn from the Missing Migrant Project dataset.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps the global distribution of missing migrants from 2014 to 2021, using a natural Earth projection rendered with `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`. Each circle represents a recorded incident, with its radius scaled proportionally to the total number of dead or missing via a square-root scale. The map overlays land polygons and country borders from the world-atlas TopoJSON dataset onto graticule lines. React manages the component hierarchy, while D3 loads the CSV data and handles geographic projections, all rendered as SVG elements with semi-transparent teal circles.
