A bubble map visualizes global migration incidents from the Missing Migrants Dataset, with circle size encoding the total dead and missing per location. The visualization uses a React component structure with D3’s `geoNaturalEarth1` projection and `geoPath` to render country boundaries, graticules, and shorelines from TopoJSON world-atlas data. A `scaleSqrt` maps data values to circle radii, while SVG circles are positioned via the projection coordinates. Interactive updates are handled through React state and hooks, with data loaded asynchronously via D3’s `csv` and `json` functions.
