This interactive visualization maps recorded incidents of missing migrants worldwide, with each circle representing an event and its radius scaled by the total number of dead or missing individuals. Using a natural Earth projection via `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` and `d3.geoPath`, the map renders country boundaries, graticules, and points from CSV data loaded with `d3.csv`. Circle sizes are determined by a square-root scale (`scaleSqrt`) applied to the death toll, and the React-based component structure uses `useWorldAtlas` to fetch TopoJSON land and interior boundaries.
