Tree diagram using symbols for nodes in v4
This tree diagram uses D3.js v4 to visualize hierarchical data with nodes represented by geometric symbols instead of traditional circles or text markers. The example loads a static JSON dataset and applies D3’s `d3.tree()` layout, with `d3.hierarchy` structuring the parent-child relationships. Link paths between nodes are styled with strokes based on each node's nested `level` property, while each node’s symbol shape and fill are determined by `d3.symbol()`—using `symbolCross` for values above nine and `symbolDiamond` below—and sized by the node's `value` attribute. The SVG rendering includes internal and leaf nodes with text labels positioned relative to each symbol.
