An interactive globe visualizes migrant deaths from the Missing Migrants Dataset, plotting each casualty as a red circle. The sphere uses d3.geoOrthographic projection, geoPath, and geoGraticule, with country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. City labels appear via d3 scaleSqrt and R-tree collision detection. Rendering combines Canvas for the map and circles with an SVG overlay for labels, supporting drag and zoom interactions.
