This interactive map plots Ebola cases as cyan dots over satellite imagery, with each dot representing a reported location across multiple countries, including Guinea, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Spain, and the United States. The visualization combines D3.js with Mapbox’s Leaflet library, using a custom SVG overlay that projects geographic coordinates into pixel positions via `map.latLngToLayerPoint`. Dots animate from a small radius to a larger size, and the map re-renders positions on zoom or pan events. The data comes from a GeoJSON FeatureCollection containing point geometries with country and address attributes.

AI-generated description

This is a simple setup of Leaflet (via Mapbox) with d3 to show dots on a map. This can serve as a base for many interesting geographically based visualizations

Nice overview of using d3 + Leaflet. I found this slightly simpler to use than Mike's classic post.

ebola cases

An interactive map plots reported Ebola cases as animated dots across Western Africa and beyond, using real-world geographic coordinates from a GeoJSON dataset. The visualization combines Leaflet with Mapbox for the base map and D3.js for the dynamic overlay, placing each case as a circle that expands on load. Users can toggle visibility by country using checkboxes, while the map supports zooming and panning with the dots repositioning in sync via D3's projection logic.

ebola cases

This interactive map visualizes the geographic distribution of Ebola cases using a Leaflet-powered SVG overlay. Points mark affected locations across Guinea, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States, and Spain, loaded from an external GeoJSON feature collection. The map uses Mapbox tiles with D3-rendered SVG circles to represent case locations, while checkboxes above the map allow users to toggle visibility for cases in the DRC, Guinea, or Liberia. The visualization combines geographic context with an interactive filtering interface to explore outbreak data across countries.

ebola cases

The visualization maps reported Ebola cases as animated dots on a world map, using a Leaflet map via Mapbox with D3.js for rendering. Each dot represents a case location from a GeoJSON file, initially expanding from a large radius to a small point over three seconds. The code projects geographic coordinates to screen positions using Leaflet's `latLngToLayerPoint` and re-renders the dots on map pan or zoom events. It combines Mapbox's base map with D3's data binding and transitions.

ebola map

This interactive map visualizes the spread of Ebola cases, plotting individual locations as dots on a tiled satellite basemap. The geographic coordinates (longitude, latitude) of each case are stored in a GeoJSON FeatureCollection, with properties indicating the country and sometimes a specific address or town (e.g., "Dallas, TX", "Gueckedou", "Boende moke"). Rendered as an animated SVG overlay on a Leaflet map, the visualization supports zooming and panning. The map is initialized to a world view centered at [20,-37] with a zoom level of 3, and the D3-selected SVG layer is synced with Leaflet's overlay pane to ensure that the points remain correctly positioned as users interact with the map. The points are plotted based on their latitude and longitude coordinates from the dataset, with labels providing the location name and country. This example demonstrates a straightforward pattern for combining Leaflet's interactive map controls with D3's data-driven SVG rendering, useful for geographically distributed point data like disease outbreak locations.

dots on map for ebola cases

This visualization plots Ebola case locations as animated dots on an interactive Mapbox map. Using Leaflet with a Mapbox.js tile layer, D3.js projects geographic coordinates from a GeoJSON file into screen positions, rendering circles that expand from radius 1 to 6 pixels. The map supports zoom and pan, with the SVG overlay repositioned dynamically through Leaflet's viewreset and move events.

Simple Mapping- Ebola

This interactive map visualizes the locations of Ebola cases, displayed as animated dots on a Mapbox base layer. The visualization plots individual data points from a GeoJSON file on a world map, with each circle representing a case location. The code uses D3.js to handle data loading and SVG circle creation, while Mapbox.js manages the map rendering and projection. As users pan or zoom, the map triggers a render function that recalculates the pixel coordinates of each dot, ensuring they stay aligned with their geographic positions.

ebola cases with checkboxes modified

An interactive map visualizes the spread of Ebola cases, with reports from Guinea, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Spain, and the United States. Users toggle checkboxes for each country to show or hide the corresponding case locations on the map. The visualization combines the Mapbox.js library for the base map with D3.js for rendering and animating the case markers as orange circles. The map includes a zoom and pan control, and the data comes from a local JSON file containing geographic coordinates.

ebola map w/checkboxes

This map visualization displays the locations of Ebola cases across several countries, with points plotted on a Leaflet map using Mapbox tiles and D3.js. The interactive element consists of checkbox filters for country selection, letting viewers toggle the visibility of markers for the United States, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and other affected regions. The rendering uses SVG circles positioned via geographic coordinates from an external GeoJSON file, providing a straightforward geographic overview of outbreak locations. The animation and interactivity are minimal, focusing on the clear display of spatial data points and country-based filtering.
