Forked from World Cities

This example displays a continuously rotating orthographic globe, with landmasses rendered in a light gray and internal country borders drawn as a subtle mesh over a pale blue ocean. The map is built using the D3 libraries `d3.geoOrthographic`, `d3.geoPath`, and `topojson-client`, which fetch and process a world-atlas GeoJSON file from unpkg. Each animation frame slightly decrements the rotation parameter, driving the spinning effect, while the view is initialized to fit the browser window.

AI-generated description

A spinning globe showing cities with population of 50K or more using the World Cities Database.
