This visualization maps the hometowns of international student-athletes, marking each athlete with a blue icon on a Leaflet map. The map clusters nearby markers using the Leaflet.markercluster plugin to show density. Athlete data, including name, sport, and hometown, is embedded directly in the JavaScript as a static array, rendered with Leaflet’s AwesomeMarkers and Font Awesome icons. The map uses a simple zoomable tile layer to display global distribution.
