Migrant Deaths Linked Views with Brushing
This interactive visualization uses a world map and a time-series histogram to explore migrant deaths. A linked brushing interface in the date histogram filters the bubble map, which uses `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath` to render circle sizes proportional to deaths. The histogram bins data by month using `d3.histogram` and `brushX`. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Project, with country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. React's `useMemo` optimizes rendering of the SVG marks.
