This interactive map displays global city populations as semi-transparent circles on a natural Earth projection, with country boundaries and graticules. The visualization uses d3.geoPath to render the sphere, graticules, and landmasses from the World Atlas TopoJSON. City coordinates are projected using d3.geoNaturalEarth1, with circle radii scaled by d3.scaleSqrt based on population data from a CSV file. The map is built as a React application using SVG for rendering.
