A rotating globe displays a Voronoi diagram of world capital cities, with each polygon filled by a categorical color from the `d3.schemeCategory10` palette. The map is rendered using `d3.geoVoronoi` and `d3.geoOrthographic`, with `d3.geoPath` projecting the spherical polygons onto an SVG canvas. Capital city coordinates are loaded from a CSV file, and the `x()` and `y()` accessors are used to map longitude and latitude while adding a small random epsilon.

geoVoronoi x() and y() accessors

This example demonstrates a Voronoi tessellation of geographic points, where each cell is colored by a field sampled from a background image. The visualization uses `d3.geoVoronoi` to compute the voronoi diagram from a set of latitude/longitude coordinates, and the `x()` and `y()` accessors map those coordinates to pixel positions in a projected map. The code then renders the resulting polygons via `d3.geoPath` and samples a color from the underlying raster—accessed through Canvas `getImageData`—to fill each cell, effectively creating a choropleth of the image’s pixel values over the region.

Spherical alpha shapes with d3-geo-voronoi

This interactive orthographic globe displays the connected boundary around a subset of world capitals, computed as spherical alpha shapes. The visualization merges Delaunay triangles from `d3.geoVoronoi` whose edges fall under a distance threshold, then traces the outer boundary of the merged triangles. The resulting polygon is rendered via `d3.geoPath` using an orthographic projection, overlaid on a graticule and city points. The globe slowly rotates by updating the projection’s rotation within a `d3.interval` loop.

geoVoronoi polygons()

One hundred random points on a sphere are partitioned into Voronoi polygons using `d3.geoVoronoi`. The orthographic projection, rendered via `d3.geoPath`, displays the colored cells with dark borders and white site markers. A gentle animation rotates the projection continuously by updating the projection’s rotation, redrawing all paths every 50 milliseconds. The example uses `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.range`, and `d3.schemeCategory10` for colors, with SVG output.

geoVoronoi mesh()

This example shows a dynamic Voronoi diagram on a globe, with a mesh of cell boundaries overlaid on a rotating orthographic projection. It generates 100 random geographic points, computes their spherical Voronoi tessellation using the `d3.geoVoronoi` plugin, and renders the resulting polygons and sites as SVG paths via `d3.geoPath`. The animation uses `d3.interval` to rotate the projection over time, continuously redrawing all paths. The code relies on D3 v4, the d3-delaunay library, and custom geo-Voronoi logic, with a light beige sphere and dark gray mesh for contrast.

geoVoronoi triangles()

This example visualizes a spherical Voronoi triangulation of 100 random points, with each triangle filled by a random hue and the original sites marked as white dots. The orthographic projection rotates continuously to reveal the globe’s surface. Built with d3-geo-voronoi and d3-delaunay, it uses d3.geoPath and d3.geoOrthographic to render SVG paths, while d3.interval drives the animation by updating the projection’s rotation every 50 milliseconds. The points are generated as a GeoJSON FeatureCollection with coordinates spanning longitude 0–360 and latitude from -90 to 90.

geoVoronoi.find(x,y)

A spherical Voronoi diagram of 500 random points is shown on an orthographic projection of the globe, where moving the mouse highlights the cell containing the cursor’s location. Using d3-geo-voronoi and d3.geoPath, the example implements a custom `xfind` method that walks through neighboring cells—coloring each visited cell in amber—to locate the nearest site, then marks the final cell red. Random site coordinates are generated directly in the code.

geoVoronoi circumcircles

This example visualizes the Voronoi tessellation of a sphere using 100 random points, rendered as colored triangles with white links and site markers. Hovering over a triangle reveals its circumcircle, drawn as a semi-transparent circle with dashed rays connecting the circumcenter to each vertex. Built with D3 v5 and the d3-geo-voronoi plugin, it uses d3.geoPath with an Equal Earth projection to draw the geometry in SVG, and d3.geoCircle to construct the interactive circumcircles.

World Airports Voronoi recreated

A world map rendered as an orthographic projection shows Voronoi cells computed from airport locations, with each cell colored distinctly and linked by dashed lines between neighboring airports. The visualization recreates Jason Davies’s classic demo using d3.geoVoronoi to generate the polygons and links from a CSV of airport coordinates, while d3.geoPath projects the spherical geometry. Country outlines from a TopoJSON file appear beneath the cells, and the sphere is shaded with a radial gradient for a three-dimensional effect.
