This example renders an ocean-centric interrupted Homolosine projection, highlighting the seas while clipping landmasses and graticules to a spherical boundary. It uses `d3.geoInterrupt` with `d3.geoHomolosineRaw` and custom lobe definitions to split the world into segments. The map displays a mouse-following red marker via `projection.invert`, with land and country boundaries from a TopoJSON `world-50m.json` file. The SVG output is styled with strokes, fills, and a graticule, all drawn using `d3.geoPath`.

AI-generated description

Reproducing the projection from National Geographic’s feature See Human Impact in an X-Ray of the Ocean, April 2017.

This ocean-centric aspect of the "Goode Homolosine" projection was developed by John Paul Goode.

Interrupted Homolosine

This example demonstrates D3’s `geoInterruptedHomolosine` projection by rendering a world map with landmasses, country boundaries, and a graticule. It also visualizes the inverse projection by moving a red marker to the geographic coordinates corresponding to the mouse position, using `projection.invert`. The map uses `d3.geoPath` with SVG, TopoJSON for world data, and `d3.geoGraticule`, clipped to a spherical outline. The projection is fitted to the viewport with `fitExtent`.

Interrupted Mollweide Oceans

This example visualizes an ocean-centric interrupted Mollweide projection, using d3.geoInterrupt to combine d3.geoMollweideRaw with custom lobe boundaries that split the globe along landmasses. The map renders world land and country boundaries from TopoJSON, clipped to a spherical outline, with a graticule and a red marker that follows the mouse via projection.invert. It relies on d3.v4, d3-geo-projection, and topojson.v1, drawing everything as SVG paths with d3.geoPath.

Interrupted Homolosine Condensed (Work In Progress)

This is a work-in-progress D3 v4 visualization exploring a "condensed" variant of the interrupted Homolosine projection, as seen in Herbert Bayer's World Geographical Atlas. It displays a world map with landmasses and country boundaries, split into two distinct projection configurations side-by-side. The code uses `d3.geoInterruptedHomolosine` with custom `clipPolygon` and `lobes` definitions, rendering via `d3.geoPath` over SVG. A graticule layer and a red marker that tracks the mouse position via `projection.invert` are also included, using TopoJSON world data.

Interrupted Goode Homolosine

This example demonstrates the Interrupted Goode Homolosine projection, a composite map projection that divides the world into lobes to minimize distortion. The visualization renders land masses in dark gray, country boundaries in white, and a graticule over a sphere outline, all clipped to the projection’s shape. It uses the `d3.geo.interrupt` and `d3.geo.homolosine` functions from the `d3.geo.projection` plugin, along with `d3.geo.graticule`, `d3.geo.path`, and TopoJSON data from the `world-50m.json` source.

Interrupted Mollweide

This example depicts the world using an interrupted Mollweide projection, styled after the Goode homolosine to reduce shape distortion across continents. The landmasses are silhouetted in dark gray with white country boundaries, while a graticule overlays the map. The code builds this projection with `d3.geo.interrupt` applied to `d3.geo.mollweide.raw`, defining custom lobes for each hemisphere. It renders geographical data from the world-50m GeoJSON file via `d3.json`, using `d3.geo.path` to draw the sphere, graticule, land, and boundary features into an SVG canvas.

Interrupted Sinusoidal II

This example displays a world map using an interrupted sinusoidal projection, splitting the globe’s landmasses into separate lobes for the northern and southern hemispheres. The map uses a white graticule and country boundaries over dark land areas, all clipped to a sphere outline. The visualization relies on d3-geo-projection’s `geoInterrupt` and `geoSinusoidalRaw` functions, with paths drawn using `d3.geoPath`. Geographic data comes from a world-50m GeoJSON file, processed via the topojson library, and rendered as SVG elements.

Interrupted Sinu-Mollweide

This example demonstrates the Interrupted Sinu-Mollweide map projection, which splits the world map into several lobes that do not extend all the way to the equator, leaving a gap. The map is rendered with SVG using D3.js v3, including the `d3.geo.interrupt` function to define the lobe boundaries and `d3.geo.path` to project geographic features. Land and country boundaries are drawn from a TopoJSON world dataset, with land filled in black and boundaries outlined in white. A graticule and sphere outline complete the visualization, with a clip path restricting all elements to the globe's shape.

Interrupted Sinusoidal

This example shows an interrupted sinusoidal projection of the world map, with the globe split into separate lobes in both hemispheres to emphasize land masses. The asymmetrical lobe boundaries, based on the Nordisk Världs Atlas, are visible through the white borders between countries. The visualization uses `d3.geoInterrupt` with `d3.geoSinusoidalRaw` to define the projection, and `d3.geoPath` to render the sphere, graticule, land, and country boundaries. Geographic data comes from the `world-50m.json` TopoJSON file, which is processed with `topojson.feature` and `topojson.mesh`.
