Data Calendar
A calendar heatmap visualizes migrant deaths in the Mediterranean across the year 2015, with daily values encoded as colored cells. The data comes from a CSV file, and each day’s color reflects its value using a five-color scale with defined breakpoints. The visualization groups the calendar by year, using D3.js version 3.5.6 to parse dates, nest data by year, and render SVG rectangles for each day, with week and weekday positioning derived from `d3.time.weekOfYear` and `getDay`.
AI-generated description###Calendar heatmap
A calendar heatmap using a simple csv file structure of date and value. These kinds of displays are good for highlighting patterns in time series data where there might be multiple time patterns present - i.e. daily/weekly/monthly/seasonal. A great implementation of this kind of graphic is the Wisconsin crash calendar.
This particular implementation produces just one svg element with a discrete group element for every year referenced in the data set.
