An orthographic globe projection displays world landmasses and city markers scaled by population, with graticules and a sphere contour providing geographic context. Built with React for state management and D3’s `geoOrthographic`, `geoPath`, and `geoGraticule` for projection and rendering, the visualization includes interactive rotation via mouse position tracking. City coordinates come from a CSV dataset, and land features are derived from TopoJSON using `topojson.feature` and `topojson.mesh`.

GLOBE

This interactive visualization presents a rotatable 3D orthographic globe of the world using D3.js and React. Users can drag the globe to explore different regions, with rotation applied via the versorDrag helper and d3.drag. The map displays country boundaries from TopoJSON world-atlas data (110m and 50m resolutions), rendered as SVG paths with hover highlighting. A graticule overlays the sphere to show latitude and longitude lines, while the projection updates dynamically through React state and d3.geoOrthographic.

Globe Zoom - Animate

An interactive orthographic globe visualizes country-level data, allowing users to zoom and rotate the projection. A choropleth map colors each country according to a numeric value, with a search feature that highlights a selected country and a rate filter for subsetting. Built with React and D3 v3, the visualization uses `d3.geo.orthographic` for the globe, `d3.geo.path` for rendering, and TopoJSON for world geography. The data is loaded from a local CSV file.

Globe Zoom - Animate

This interactive globe visualization animates between orthographic and map projections to display geographic data points, with country boundaries rendered as SVG paths. Users can zoom and rotate the globe, search for locations, and toggle between datasets showing meat consumption and population growth percentages. The visualization is built with D3.js version 3, React, and TopoJSON, using d3.geo.orthographic and d3.geo.winkel3 projections with d3.geo.zoom for interaction. Data is loaded from external CSV and TopoJSON sources, with tooltips and a legend providing additional context.

Cities of the World

Cities of the World uses a natural Earth projection to display global population data as proportional circles. D3’s geoNaturalEarth1 and geoPath render landmasses, graticules, and sphere outlines, while a sqrt scale maps city populations to circle radii. The visualization loads world atlas topology from world-atlas and city CSV data, overlaying semi-transparent dots atop a muted map. React manages the SVG rendering, with d3.v5 providing the underlying geospatial and scaling utilities.

Cities on a Globe

This example presents an interactive orthographic globe that plots circles for cities with populations over 100,000, with circle size proportional to population. Users can pan and zoom the globe by dragging or using the scroll wheel, which triggers dynamic re-rendering of city markers. The visualization uses D3 v4 with d3.geoOrthographic projection, d3.geoPath, d3.drag, and d3.zoom, along with TopoJSON world-atlas data for country boundaries. City data originates from a preprocessed Geonames dataset, and the code displays tooltips via d3-tip on hover.

Making a world map with city points React and D3

This example displays a world map with city points sized by population, built using React and D3. It shows countries with interior boundaries, a graticule, and a sphere background, with city circles projected using the d3.geoNaturalEarth1 projection. The map uses d3.json to load the world-atlas TopoJSON, d3.csv for city data, and d3.geoPath with d3.geoGraticule for rendering. City radii are scaled using d3.scaleSqrt, while d3.max determines the scale domain. The visualization is rendered as an SVG within a React component, using React hooks to manage asynchronous data loading.

Globe Zoom - Animate

A world map rendered with SVG marks a projected globe, where graticules, landmasses, and country interiors are drawn via `d3.geoPath` and `d3.geoGraticule`. Nuclear test explosion sites, loaded from a CSV, are plotted as small circles whose positions are calculated using a Mercator projection (`d3.geoMercator`). The visualization demonstrates how multiple geographic datasets can be overlaid and interactively explored, with tooltips showing each site’s name and coordinates. The implementation uses React for state management and `d3` v3 APIs for map and projection handling.
