This example visualizes earthquake activity near Grindavík, Iceland, using a 3D terrain map. It displays earthquake epicenters as colored markers, with color and size representing magnitude and depth, plotted over a textured landscape. The visualization uses Three.js for 3D rendering and D3.js for data loading and spatial projection, with `d3.geoPath` to generate the terrain geometry. Earthquake data is sourced from a CSV file containing date, time, latitude, longitude, depth, and magnitude.

This example visualizes earthquake activity using a force-directed particle layout. Each circle is an earthquake, positioned by its longitude and latitude and scaled by magnitude; the particles are animated with a gentle jitter to reveal clustered events. The visualization is rendered with D3 v3 using SVG, mapping the `data.csv` fields—such as depth, magnitude, and location—to visual variables. A shared timeline and smooth transitions help the user explore the relationship between location, time, and earthquake strength across the dataset.

This example plots earthquake epicenters as points on a map using GeoJSON features. It renders the geographic coordinates with `d3.geoPath` and a map projection, while each point is positioned via `d3.forceSimulation` to avoid overlapping labels. The visualization shows five recent seismic events, with the primary ID as magnitude and the secondary ID as a location description. The code uses D3’s force-directed layout to spread the point markers, and the map background likely comes from a geographic shapefile or topojson layer, making the data immediately readable by region.

draft earthquake data

This visualization uses earthquake data from a USGS dataset to map seismic events by location and magnitude on a world map. Each earthquake is represented as a circle, with its size scaled by magnitude and its position determined by latitude/longitude coordinates. The depth of the quakes is encoded through color, creating a gradient from shallow to deep events. The map is rendered with SVG paths for continents, and a custom tooltip provides details on click or hover. Circles are drawn with D3's data-join and scaled using a linear magnitude scale, while the map projection and graticule are set up with D3's geo utilities. The visualization highlights the global distribution and intensity of recent seismic activity, with Nepal, Japan, and the South Pacific clearly standing out.

earthquakes

This visualization maps global earthquake epicenters as points on a world map, with each point’s size encoding magnitude and its color representing depth. The GeoJSON data is plotted using a geographic projection, where the point geometry for each earthquake is rendered based on latitude and longitude coordinates. Magnitude values are mapped to graduated circle sizes, allowing quick comparison of seismic strength, while depth is encoded through a sequential color scale—typically from shallow (light) to deep (dark). The map reveals clusters of seismic activity along tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Ring of Fire, with larger circles indicating stronger earthquakes. Tooltips or hover interactions would reveal detailed attributes like date, magnitude, depth, and station count, making the visualization both an overview of global seismicity and a gateway to per-event details. The source data is from the USGS-style earthquake records, providing a clear, interactive way to explore historical earthquake distributions.

Earthquake Map

This map visualizes global earthquakes using D3.js, plotting each event as a colored circle on a dark equirectangular projection. Circle size and color encode earthquake magnitude, with the data sourced from a CSV file of USGS earthquake records. The map employs an SVG rendering and includes a polar fisheye distortion effect, initially centered on Japan, that magnifies the map around the cursor's position. The fisheye implementation uses D3’s projection and custom fisheye.js, with event handling throttled for performance.

class 3

This example displays a map of the United States overlaid with earthquake locations from the USGS’s daily GeoJSON feed. The visualization shows each earthquake as a small path marker on top of the state boundaries. The map uses the `d3.geoAlbersUsa` projection and `d3.geoPath` to render the geographic shapes, with state outlines drawn from TopoJSON data. Earthquake points are appended as `path` elements with a crimson fill, while the states are styled in a light yellow, highlighting the spatial distribution of recent seismic activity.

Ver3 Earthquakes (past 30 days)

This visualization displays global earthquake activity from the past 30 days on an interactive world map. Circles are positioned using a D3 geoEquirectangular projection, with circle size encoding earthquake magnitude. Color encodes depth, with red for shallow (<70km), green for intermediate (70-300km), and blue for deep (≥300km) earthquakes. The map also shows country boundaries, graticules, and tectonic plate boundaries. Users can click any earthquake circle to open its USGS details page in a new tab, or pan and zoom using the d3.zoom() interaction. Additional brush-based zooming is implemented to allow for more intuitive exploration of the data.

Earthquake Map

This map visualizes global earthquake activity over a two-week period in September 2015. Each circle marks an earthquake, sized by magnitude and colored by depth, with larger and darker circles indicating stronger, shallower events. The visualization uses the D3.js library to project earthquake epicenters onto a world map, with a legend clarifying the depth-color mapping and magnitude scaling. The map is rendered with SVG, with circles positioned by latitude and longitude coordinates from the dataset. The included data shows a cluster of significant seismic activity off the coast of Chile, as well as events across the Pacific Ring of Fire. The visualization effectively communicates the global distribution of earthquakes and relative intensities through its circle sizing and color scheme.
