This visualization maps migration flows between Germany’s 30 largest cities by querying Bing for each pair of city names in the pattern “von [source] nach [target] gezogen.” The code, written in Python, uses the `pattern.web` library’s Bing search engine and records the result counts as a CSV of source-target-weight triples. The resulting directed graph likely plots city nodes with edge thickness proportional to the number of search hits, showing where people move most frequently.

Where are you moving next?

This interactive map visualizes migration patterns across U.S. cities, showing net population flow as red and blue bubbles and directional flows as curved lines between metros. Users can toggle between showing outgoers and incomers, slide through quarterly time periods from 2016 to 2021, and click cities to see their top origins or destinations. Built with d3.geoPath for the U.S. map, d3.scaleLinear for bubble sizing, and animated SVG transitions, it uses Redfin migration data to reveal how the pandemic shifted movement between locations.

Cypher for Spatial

This example demonstrates the spatial capabilities of Neo4j’s Cypher query language by finding the nearest city to a given point in Germany. It shows how to combine geographic coordinates with graph traversal to return a ranked list of nearby cities, ordered by distance. The visualization uses `spatial.closest` from the Neo4j Spatial library, with a query that computes distances via the `distance()` function in kilometers. The accompanying data files include a GeoJSON point for the starting location and an exported CSV of city names with distances, while the code references adding a layer and populating it with cities from a Gist. The result is a straightforward map-based proximity search, rendered as a tabular list rather than a graphical map.

Playing around with geopy using "Geburtsorte" - Data from Moers - [https://www.offenesdatenportal.de/dataset/geburtsorte-der-moerser-bevoelkerung]

This example visualizes the birthplaces of Moers’ population, mapping place names and counts from the city’s open data portal onto a geographic context. It uses Python with `pandas` to load and clean a CSV file, dropping rows for unknown or unclear entries, and prepares the data for geocoding. The code imports `geopy` to convert the listed birth locations into coordinates, which would then support plotting on a map, though no specific mapping or rendering library is shown in the provided excerpts.

Data about the different quarters of Cologne, Germany

This visualization presents a multi-faceted demographic profile of Cologne’s 86 districts using a CSV from a public gist, with each row representing a district. It shows how metrics like population density, age distribution, and migration background vary across the city through an interactive scatter plot, where each point is a district colored by its borough. Built with D3’s `forceSimulation` for layout and `geoPath`-based Voronoi tessellation for district shapes, the tooltip dumps all raw column values on hover. The data source is the city’s open statistics portal, loaded directly into the page for filtering.

Stolpersteine in Berlin

A map of Berlin displays thousands of Stolpersteine memorial stones as individual points, each marking the last known residence of a Holocaust victim. The visualization uses D3.js with `d3.forceSimulation` to handle spatial collision detection, preventing markers from overlapping at dense locations while `d3.geoPath` renders the city’s street and district boundaries. Hovering a point reveals the person’s name, address, deportation date, and murder site from the embedded GeoJSON data, with a tooltip built from the properties fields. Points are colored by the deportation destination, such as Auschwitz or Theresienstadt, providing an immediate sense of historical scale across the city.

Untitled

This Sankey diagram visualizes migration flows from the Americas and Europe to African countries and onward to major Asian destinations. The chart displays weighted connections between countries, with thicker links indicating larger migrant populations. Built using the Google Charts Sankey visualization API, the code defines nodes and edges in a DataTable, specifying the origin, destination, and weight for each flow. The diagram uses gradient-colored links and a predefined color palette for nodes, rendering a multi-level flow structure. The data is hand-coded in the HTML file rather than loaded from the accompanying CSV.

Fork of of V6 Immigrants flow map between countries

This interactive map visualizes global immigration flows to and from selected countries in 2020. Clicking a highlighted country filters and displays bundled migration paths, rendered as curved lines, from that origin to destinations worldwide, with a bar chart below ranking the top 20 destination countries by immigrant count. The visualization uses React with D3 v5, employing `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath` for the map, `d3.ForceEdgeBundling` for flow aggregation, and `d3.scaleBand` with `d3.scaleSqrt` for the bar chart, drawing data from a CSV file.

Fork of Foreign Population in Germany by Selected Citizenships and Years

This fork of a Streamgraph template visualizes the foreign population in Germany by selected citizenships across six years (2015–2020), based on CSV data from Destatis. Six stacked, wiggled areas represent Europe, Africa, America, Asia, Australia and Oceania, and Unknown, with hover effects that darken a path. The chart uses D3 v4, applying `d3.stack()` with `stackOffsetWiggle` and `stackOrderInsideOut`, plus `d3.area()` with `curveBasis` for smoothing. Axis ticks, labels, and area-label overlays come from `d3-axis` and the `d3-area-label` plugin.
