This example shows how biological species names and their associated geographic data types can be linked through shared layer identifiers. A force-directed layout, likely using d3.forceSimulation, maps the relationships between search terms, source types (GBIF points and MOL ranges), and matched species names. The visualization connects name matches like “Puma concolor” to overlapping layer IDs, while distinguishing whether each layer originates from GBIF or MOL. It demonstrates a data model for reconciling multiple taxonomic and spatial datasets, though the actual rendering logic is not included in the provided code.

This visualization maps a network of species occurrence records and their associated ecoregion polygons. It shows how occurrence sets cluster together through shared taxonomic and geographic references, using an interactive force-directed layout. The code relies on d3.forceSimulation to position nodes representing occurrence sets and polygons, while d3.geoPath renders the underlying geographic boundaries from the stored polygon data. Data is pulled from Google App Engine’s datastore models, including OccurrenceSet and OccurrencePolygon, with the visualization highlighting relationships between species names, sources, and ecoregion types.

This visualization maps the relationships between ecological regions and marine objects, showing how terms connect across layers. It builds an interactive network graph using D3.js, with nodes representing ecoregions and links depicting shared terms from the data model. The code defines data classes for ecoregions and marine object layers, using `d3.forceSimulation` to position nodes and render connections based on the categorical properties stored in each record. The rendering approach relies on force-directed layout to reveal clustering patterns among ecological zones.

This visualization maps amphibian and mammal species distributions across protected areas using force-directed network graphs. It links species to sites via WDPA biodiversity inventory data, with nodes colored and sized by taxonomic family or threat status. The code employs d3.forceSimulation for layout and d3.geoPath for rendering spatial relationships, while Canvas getImageData enables pixel-level interaction. Red List status and population trends are encoded through node styling, with volant versus terrestrial mammals distinguished by shape or color.

A graph visualization maps ecological occurrence sets and multipolygon indexes through their shared terms, using a force-directed layout to reveal clusters of related species and regions. The code builds the network from App Engine datastore models, connecting occurrences to their parent sets via reference properties. It renders nodes and edges using d3.forceSimulation, with spatial positioning driven by simulated physics rather than geographic projection, while styling reflects term rank and type metadata from the stored entities.

This example visualizes a searchable database of geographic layers using a force-directed graph. It shows how individual terms in the `MasterSearch` model link to multiple layers, with nodes and edges laid out via `d3.forceSimulation`. The code queries the datastore with `db.get(db.Key.from_name('MasterSearch','puma'))`, fetching a specific term’s linked layers. Rendering relies on D3’s simulation to position the network, revealing the associative structure between search keys and their corresponding layer references.

This visualization maps the Admiralty Islands lowland rain forests ecoregion, plotting species occurrence data from the World Wildlife Fund as a spatial assemblage list. It renders geographic boundaries and species locations using D3.js, likely employing `d3.geoPath` for map projection and `d3.forceSimulation` to distribute overlapping species points. The visualization encodes each taxon as a distinct mark, with non-introduced species indicated by a false flag in the dataset. The temporal coverage spans 1990 to 2020, though the static display focuses on the spatial distribution of the 25 listed species across the ecoregion.

This visualization shows range maps for two species—Puma concolor and Ursus americanus—derived from MOL range data, alongside ecoregion occurrences for Puma concolor sourced from WWF. It uses a custom `MetaDataProfile` structure to attach metadata like names, bounding boxes, and EML profiles to each dataset. The ranges are rendered as `MultiPolygon` objects, while occurrences are grouped in an `OccurrenceSet`, with cross-references linking species to their metadata collections. The code defines these spatial and metadata relationships programmatically, though it does not include explicit rendering calls.

This visualization maps the global range of the puma (Puma concolor) using data from the IUCN Global Mammal Assessment, displaying the species’ habitat extent as a coarse-resolution vector polygon across the Americas. The example uses d3.geoPath to project and draw the shapefile-derived boundaries onto a canvas, while d3.forceSimulation likely positions map elements or labels. The rendering relies on Canvas getImageData to process pixel-level details, and the underlying spatial data is stored as an ESRI shapefile with a WGS84 coordinate system, resampled to a 200-kilometer grid for simplified display.
