VI7 Matrix view visualizes the adjacency of U.S. states in a 49x49 grid using D3 v2 with SVG and animation. Each cell is colored to indicate a connection between two states, and users can reorder the matrix by state name, by connection frequency, or by geographic cluster via a dropdown menu. Ordering by name reveals which states are neighbors; ordering by frequency places states with the most adjacent states first, such as Tennessee, while states like Maine with only one connection appear later. The interactive ordering options make it easy to explore the structure of state adjacency relationships.
