A scatterplot maps veterinary clinics and animal hospitals by geographic coordinates, with each point labeled by facility name. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation to prevent label overlap, while d3.geoPath renders a base map from geographic data. Points are colored and positioned via an equirectangular projection, with tooltips activated on hover. The dataset originates from a gist containing longitude, latitude, and facility names, though a stray SQL injection string appears in the data. The visualization highlights spatial clustering of animal care providers across the western United States, using Canvas getImageData for pixel-level collision detection during label placement.
