This visualization links a world map of migrant deaths with a time-series histogram, using brushing to filter data across both views. The map displays circles sized by the total dead and missing, while the histogram shows monthly totals, with brush selection updating the map's highlighted points. Built with React and D3 v5, it uses d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath for the map, d3.scaleSqrt for circle sizing, and d3.brushX for interactive filtering. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Project, with country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON.
