This visualization shows the locations of missing migrants on a world map, using a natural Earth projection to render landmasses and graticules. Each migrant incident is drawn as a semi-transparent circle, with its radius scaled proportionally to the total number of dead and missing via a square-root scale. The map is built with d3.geoPath for geographic features and d3.geoGraticule for the coordinate grid, while data is loaded from a CSV file using d3.csv. The entire SVG is assembled in React, with world atlas topology processed through the topojson library’s feature and mesh functions.
