This example shows a spinning globe visualization that rotates continuously to display world continents. The orthographic projection rotates around the vertical axis using `d3.geoOrthographic()` and `d3.geoPath`, with the rotation angle driven by `d3.timer` based on elapsed time. The globe renders country boundaries from a GeoJSON file loaded via `d3.json`, while the SVG background is styled with a light blue color. The code uses D3 v4 for all geographic projections, path rendering, and animation timing, with no additional libraries or interactive elements.

This example shows a spinning orthographic globe with continent outlines, rendered as SVG paths. The map rotates continuously using a `d3.timer` that updates the projection’s rotation, while `d3.geoPath` redraws the continent geometry each frame. The globe is styled with a light blue background and uses GeoJSON country data loaded from a remote URL. Although a CSV file with city pollution data is included, it is not referenced in the code. The visualization relies solely on D3 v4’s geographic and timer utilities.

Spinning Globe

A spinning globe displays the world’s landmasses in an orthographic projection, rotating continuously while its tilt oscillates. The visualization uses D3 v4’s `d3.geoOrthographic()` projection and `d3.geoPath()` to render country polygons from the `world-110m` TopoJSON dataset. A timer updates the projection’s rotation and tilt, redrawing the SVG path each frame to create the animated effect.

Spinning Globe

This example displays a continuously rotating orthographic globe, with landmasses rendered in a light gray and internal country borders drawn as a subtle mesh over a pale blue ocean. The map is built using the D3 libraries `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.geoPath`, and `topojson-client`, which fetch and process a world-atlas GeoJSON file from unpkg. Each animation frame slightly decrements the rotation parameter, driving the spinning effect, while the view is initialized to fit the browser window.

This Is a Globe in d3.v4

A continuously rotating orthographic projection of the world map, rendered as a spinning globe on a Canvas. The animation uses `d3.geoOrthographic` with a clip angle to show only the visible hemisphere, while `d3.geoPath` draws the land features from a TopoJSON world dataset. The rotation is driven by `d3.timer`, updating the projection’s rotation angle based on elapsed time. A static circle outlines the globe’s edge, with the map redrawn and cleared each frame.

Rotating Globe

A rotating orthographic globe displays world landmasses and graticule meridians in SVG. The Earth spins continuously via a d3.timer that updates the d3.geoOrthographic projection’s rotation, with d3.geoPath rendering the geographic features from TopoJSON world-atlas data. A hover effect darkens countries, while a static color legend lists continents. Zoom and pan are supported through d3.zoom, with the globe group transformed on user input.

Spinning Globe

This example shows a world map projected onto a rotating globe, using an orthographic projection to create a 3D effect. It displays the graticule and country boundaries with a simple, clean visual style. The code uses `d3.geoOrthographic` and `d3.geoPath` to render the map, and `d3.geoGraticule` for the grid lines. It loads country data from a TopoJSON file via `topojson-client` and manages rotation through state. The animation is implemented using `requestAnimationFrame` to update the rotation values, though it is currently disabled.

Spinning Globe

A spinning globe rendered with an orthographic projection, showing country boundaries from the visionscarto World Atlas TopoJSON dataset. The view rotates continuously around its vertical axis using `requestAnimationFrame` to incrementally adjust `projection.rotate`. Built with `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.geoPath`, and `d3.geoGraticule`, the animation highlights the graticule lines, country outlines, and a bold sphere outline as the Earth turns.

Spinning Globe

A world map spins continuously to show all continents and the graticule grid, rendered as an orthographic projection that creates the illusion of a rotating globe. The code uses `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.geoPath`, and `d3.geoGraticule` to draw the sphere outline, graticule, and country borders, with data loaded from the visionscarto world-atlas TopoJSON file via `topojson-client`. Animation is driven by `requestAnimationFrame` in React, updating the projection’s rotation array each frame.
