This treemap visualizes the geographical distribution of Google requests by recursively subdividing a rectangle into nested rectangles, where the area of each rectangle is proportional to the number of requests for that country, and color encodes continents. The squarified layout algorithm from d3.treemapResquarify arranges the tiles efficiently, while a categorical color scale with a white fade distinguishes the four continent groups—Africa, Americas, Asia, and Europe. The visualization is rendered with SVG and includes an animation effect. The data, sourced from a gist, shows the relative volume of Google requests across countries, with larger areas representing higher request counts. The design is a fork of Mike Bostock's treemap, adapted from the Flare visualization toolkit dataset, with the treemap concept originally invented by Ben Shneiderman and the squarified layout by Bruls, Huizing, and van Wijk.

AI-generated description

A treemap recursively subdivides area into rectangles; the area of any node in the tree corresponds to its value. This example uses color to encode different packages of the Flare visualization toolkit. Treemap design invented by Ben Shneiderman. Squarified algorithm by Bruls, Huizing and van Wijk. Data courtesy Jeff Heer.
