An animated globe shows the worldwide locations of data visualization studios, with points color-coded by region. The visualization uses a spinning orthographic projection, rendered as an SVG, to display the Earth from space. The globe rotates using `requestAnimationFrame`, and the `d3.geoOrthographic` projection updates the positions of the data points in real time. A legend allows users to interactively highlight studios by region, using `d3.scaleOrdinal` for color mapping, with the studio data loaded from a CSV file.
